Chittagong UK/London coronation countdown giveaway thread

Gold Member
In the last few years my life has changed and I spend less and less time in London, and more time in our home French Polynesia and summer home in Finland.

It has come time to Marie Kondo my life. I have a bunch of gaming and entertainment related items that I have truly enjoyed, but that I do not have use for anymore. I think they can provide joy to other people.

Repeating a previously successful thread idea, for the next 7 days, I will be donating away drops of various gaming / entertainment related boxes.

Thread rules
1 - New daily drop is announced each evening UK time, and OP updated
2 - You can win the daily prize by posting about it
3 - When new drop is announced each day, so is the winner of the previous drop
4 - Items are available for anonymous pickup from our building concierge in London, or you can organise courier to pick them up. One of the drops will be too cumbersome to courier.
5 - I don't want to know real names of GAF members, so please use fake names

How are daily winners chosen?
I will draw a winner from the participants. I will go through all replies indicating interest in the drop. Whether it's for enjoyment or because you will have the time to resell the drop, all is fair game.

Why not sell the stuff myself?
I get to spend just a few weeks in London, and managing the logistics and hassle of selling items is just too much.

Why not just take them to a charity shop?
I think people in GAF will appreciate and understand the items better, and if selling them, will get a better price.

What if there is no takers?
Then it's off to Oxfam or recycling.

When can the pickup happen?
Everything has to be picked up by 2 October 2022 on a day agreed in PM.

Where is the pickup location and how does the pickup work?
Location is a large building on City Road, London, provided over PM. The building has a 24h concierge who will hand out the parcel. If you are organising a courier pickup, you will need to PM me the label to print.

not interested in getting the games but just want to say i love those old N64 game boxes. i miss them. same with old PC boxes. disc cases suck. i'm not a fan of physical games but i'd love if games came in boxes again with a download code and manuals/maps.

I'm interested in drop 2 for Patlobor/Blade runner, if no one else is :)

& Yo Majora's Mask, I could never get my head round that game as a child, I finished ocarina of time, but it felt like my game kept resetting on majora's mask when the clock or moon got to a certain time/point & there was so many masks with different quirks, I got very very stuck on that game, I think that was one of the first games I ever gave up on :(

Am I the only one that found it impossible back then?

I am so in for Drop 5!

As I mentioned previously I live in London and will be able to pick up the PC at your earliest convenience.

Wow delighted to see the interest for the gaming PC! I thought this would be the hardest one to shift due to how cumbersome it is :D but it is a lovely form factor, and the mechanical keyboard and mouse are so nice.

I will pop the all the posts for it to the raffle tomorrow and let’s see what comes out.

I am currently travelling so the final pickup window opens Sun 25 September for all the rest of the items.

Also interested in drop 6, would be good for my morning walks, so I don't need to say morning to everyone that walks by 🤔

That probably makes me sound like a terrible person, but some mornings, I'm really just not in the mood.
