I figured I'd better reply to this, just as a warning.

Jim Rogers is in with the mike Mixon/ Ed Saunders clan if you dont know.

I know a lot of Atlanta people including the guy who sold Ed and Mike all
their games. He refuses to sell anything more to them because he knows
they are crooks. After Ed and Mike tried selling all their stuff, they had
Jim Rogers try to sll it all for them, but most people made the
connection.

I had bought a game from ed and I got screwed too, I waited a year, but
since I know where the game came from, I went to atlanta and went to Ed
Saunder's work. He works at a place called Friends of Disabled Adults
(FODA) in
Stone Mountain, GA if anyone cares to bug him. Jim Rogers works there too.

Anyway. I went there to pick up a Deathrace and a Ripoff (all the games
are in FODA's warehouse), and I saw all the other games he posted and
supposedly sold, including Gaymond Lee's blaster duramold and that NOS
star Trek Kit. I knew that both of them were sold before, and I asked to
buy them. He said I could buy the ST kit for $500, I said no, knowing that
it was sold before. He was basically wanting to sell everything but the
blaster, because he said that was Gaymond's.

I got my games and got out of there. This all took place in May of last
year.

If you happened to nitoce, NEAT-O-JUNK *IS* Ed Saunders trying to get back
on, but he screwed up again and got pushed off right away. And now Tristan
Mulrooney is trying to get in on the act. Tristan is an Aircraft Avionics
Tech who has been trying to get in on the game business down in atlanta
for 2 years now. All the "good" game dealers told him not to get involved
because there just isn't enough money to do that for a living unless you
have a good name. Because of this he just recently got involved with Ed,
and I dont think he knows what he has gotten into. I am sure ED has led
himn on with lies and asked him to sell the boards under his name.

I would HIGHLY suggest NOT to buy boards from Tristan.

There are a couple good guys to deal with from atlanta:

David Countryman is alright, he is a wierd dude, but he ain't gonna screw
anybody, 'cause he will have a nervous breakdown if he did.

Retrodady seems like an alright dude too, he buys games from David.

Steve Stewart. Steve is the guy who used to supply all the games to Ed and
the clan, but now he wont. Also every game David C gets come from steve.
Steve is a very highly respected guy down in the SE and most of the
operators down there will only sell to him!

Steve will be getting onto the net very soon to sell games, he has about
600 games right now and he needs to move them soon! There will be a post
in RGVAM fairly soon, and there will be a webpage up soon for him also. I
cant recommend Steve enough, he is a great guy. Done ask me what he has
just yet.

I think that will clear up anything reguarding the atlanta mess.

I didn't want to post this to the NG, but I would suggest passing the word
around or maybe one of you wants to post part of this. I dont want to
because I know everybody down there..
