Hmm. . . wonder what the trouble is.  Been a long time since I had mine, but I'm wondering if a wire isn't disconnected on one of the advance switches or something. . .

If you're talking about item #200088873894, I emailed him and told him it was problably due to dead batteries.  He replied that there's no battery holder, and he would attach some and see if that fixed it.

I just couldn't stand the thought of someone dumping a game that just needs some batteries to be up and running.

Well, the batteries fixed his booting problem and now he's asking me about the sound.  I've turned into a long distance repair guy.

Does he still want to get rid of it?  I'm not really looking for a Stargate, but I live in Nebraska, so i'd take it if he's just going to throw it in the dumpster....

Grab it.  The guy doesn't really seem to care about it much.

As of the time of my post yesterday - none.

I'm currently on sub-dialup so I ain't checking right now!   ;)

The starting bid is 150.00, BIN for 295.00.  I know of the seller, i've bought things from him before.  Real nice guy, I think he's more of a pinball guy, which is probably why he just wants to get rid of this.  Unfortunately, the starting price is already more than what I wanted to spend on this, so someone else will have to save it  :dunno
