Question

Somebody told me that Maxim Magazine had and article about some people that went out and dug up all the old Atari carts that had been buried when Atari went under and that they were selling them on the web. Is this true? Where can I find the web site? [William Lieder]

Answer

Don't know anything about this. Can anyone else help?

2nd opinion: Simon Wells
Maxim Magazine ran an article on O'Shea Ltd, an on-line closeout site located physically in the USA. They have Atari stuff mixed in with a LOT of other weird items (Plastic Pizza Cutter anyone??).

They dug up some 2600 and 7800 carts (46 titles to choose from) which cost $2.00 each +S&H (via UPS). They also have a number of Jaguar titles available at www.oshealtd.com.
