This used to be the center pieces of my collection. Rare and expensive old games.
Now it turns out I‘ve been scammed and sold forgeries by a well known figure in the Ultima and tetrogames community. Along with many others
#ultima #akalabeth @RichardGarriott

Forgot this one (floppy is being examined atm). A double sticker #Akalabeth sold to me by Enrico Ricciardi. Supposedly an extra purchase from @RichardGarriott for E’s daughter. But I was asked not to tell anyone 🤦‍♂️

Details will be released today. Let’s say that if you bought a game released ~1984 and earlier from a certain Italian Photographer in the last decade or more, the possibility that it is not genuine is really high. I mean REALLY high

There is no doubt it is fake, but the floppy was examined to see how fake. It‘s blank! Not unreadable but blank, nothing on it.
