This copy of 99'er Magazine has been in storage, and has not been looked at for some time. As a family we started out with the Texas Instruments Computer and our grown children loved all the educational modules as well as playing all the games, and our "library" was extensive. Though this magazine is old/used it is in excellent condition. It is and comes AS IS.

Please consider taking a moment to find more TI-99/4A items in our store. Watch for more TI-99/4A games, etc to come. I will continue to put copies of this magazine out, either on auction or in our store, and yes, they can by combined.

This item comes from a smoke-free home.

Good luck with your shopping!
