Vintage Board Games – More Popular Than Ever
Vintage Board Games Making a Comeback
Today, computer games, console gaming systems, and electronic games have made playing games very much a hands-off, one-player venture. Remember the days when a board game and a bowl of popcorn brought the whole family together around the table and game play lasted into the night? You can recapture the past as many others have with vintage board games! You can bring family and friends of all ages together to spend time together talking and having fun, all while playing an old-fashioned board game.
Buying Vintage Board Games
Is there a favorite game from your childhood that you would like to play again or maybe share with your children? Perhaps there was a game that you always wanted, but you didn’t get under your Christmas tree when you were a child. In the past, finding an older board game would have required some legwork, or at the very least, telephone work on your part, trying to track down a specific game. Now, many dealers in vintage games have websites where you can browse their selection of games to find what you need. If you still can’t find the game you are looking for, you can always contact the seller and ask them to see if they can locate it. Because sellers have contacts in the antiques and vintage market, they have more resources to find what you are looking for and if something new comes on the market, they are often the first to know.
Do You Have a Potential Windfall?
Not only are vintage games nostalgic, they are also very collectible. Those old board games sitting in your closet or collecting dust at the cottage may be just what someone else is looking for. Generally speaking, when it comes to vintage games, the better the condition of the game and its pieces-including the instructions-the higher the value you can expect to receive. This also applies to the box that the came comes in; boxes with few rips, dents, faded or worn places fetch higher prices. Expect an even higher rate of pay if the game is still sealed in the original packaging.
Many vintage games sellers on-line also purchase games to re-sell. Whether buying or selling, look for a company with a history of selling or buying on-line. Look for a company which has an established reputation and which offers a clear cut return policy.
Vintage Goes Online
If you are looking for information about vintage board games, there are a lot of web sites which can help you out. You can look for game-specific information, including those instructions that were lost sometime during an epic family board game challenge. There is quite a community of board game collectors on-line with whom you can chat about your favorite games or ask questions. You can meet people with similar interests, and as you play your games, you may even discover a hidden talent or two. So pick up a vintage game today and start playing!
I am compiling a book of stories by men about their childhood toys and games. Anyone there interested in writing something. I can send guidelines.

I have been selling vintage board games on eBay for quite awhile now. I find fairly cheap in some local thrift stores. I have had a lot of fun and made extra money also.

Hi Bev,
Contact customer service at Don’s Game Closet about your 60 games. If you have a list with dates and pictures that would be even better.

I am searching for a vintage game from the 1950s or the early 60s called “Death Valley”. It had a plastic, mapped board with 3-D mountains and you took turns moving your marble up and down the mountains. Some of the spaces would cause your marble to fall into the “water”, and then that player would have to start all over again. Please contact me, as I would purchase it immediately. caroleo@slumni.gwu.edu
Thanks,

One thing I have actually noticed is always that there are plenty of common myths regarding the banking institutions intentions when talking about foreclosure. One fable in particular is the fact that the bank would like your house. The financial institution wants your cash, not your house. They want the amount of money they loaned you together with interest. Avoiding the bank will draw a new foreclosed realization. Thanks for your post.

If you have a pile of old mobile phones laying around? Get them out of your place, and earn some dollers in the process. I’ve been using this site for over a year now, and they are wonderful! They give you an online offer for pretty much every phone out there. Cellularflip is a solid company. Just type the model of your phone, and they will tell you how much they’re willing to pay. They even pay for shipping.

I am trying to remember a game that I used to play at my grandma’s house when I was growing up. I don’t remember the name, but it was a round metal board with 4 spring-loaded spots around the board where you place a plastic colored ball. The goal was to shoot all of your balls into the center basket before your opponents did. If you know the name, I would appreciate any help that you can give.
