Alas disc games arent easy to find and the few ones that pop up on ebay is usually way beyond being overpriced. Only place i know that has disc games is:
http://www.retrogames.co.uk (http://www.retrogames.co.uk)
Pretty overpriced as well i think also do note that i doubt they test their 8bit games at all. Gotten a disc game from them that was ridden with read errors, so keep it in mind that these 25 year old amstrad discs got a large chance of not working at all.

Would be good if there was a thread like this Pinned into the Classified section with links to these alternatives. :D

Well why not stick them in the Stores Open thread or on the Links Page, or just somewhere anyone can get to them?? :D

Everyone can edit the Links page, but two links do not warrant a sticky :)

Okay so I'll add them there, so don't complain when the Links page looks weird.

I don't know why you're still stuck on the Sticky suggestion, it was only a passing thought in order to do something about those links. ???
