I have seen it advertised for sale for $10 (both Pop I and Promised Lands)
I'm willing to pay $10 + shipping for them.  (ie $13)

Speaking of odd games which never had a PC version.  One of my ALLTIME
favorite games is Wings of Fury.  A friend of mine who lived 20 miles away
had it for his Apple II GS I think.  Anyway, it was the only place
that i could play it, cause I could NEVER find the PC version.
Anyone ever seen it?  Wow, I want it if you have!

Thx again,
Brian

Actually, I have a PC version of 3 of the Apshai games (don't know which
ones) that I paid $5 for at a Target clearance sale.  I don't have
the instruction manual for them though, as it didn't come with one.

They are, however, not for sale.  Sorry.

Also, one of my favorite games on the C64 was Knight Games.  I have
a PC copy of this too, but it doesn't work (packed file corrupt on
kg.exe) ;-{
