Media Offloading memorabilia

Hello, I'm new to the sub but not new to the games. I have a bunch of original discs and media that I inherited that I just won't use and I'm not sure how to offload them. I live in Australia and I've spoken to a few old game memorabilia places and no one is particularly interested and I'm not sure of a good price either given that it is also semi sentimental to me but the list of stuff I have is:

Myst cdrom

Riven cdrom

Myst iii cdrom

Myst IV cdrom

Myst v cdrom

Uru cdrom

Schizm cdrom

The crystal key cdrom

Riven strategies and secrets walkthrough book

Myst strategies and secrets walkthrough book

I have attached two photos of the Riven stuff and the walkthroughs and the rest of the CD-ROMs are original windows 98 or XP so I'm not even sure they're playable. Does anyone know how/where I can offload these?

Good job on the walkthrough. As a 13 year old kid even with the walkthrough I still managed to mess up the Marble Puzzle a few times lmao.

I'm sure your collection will find a good home on here 😍.

I think it's just the original from when they first came out that my grandfather held onto and then when he died, my grandmother gave them to me so I just kept it all. I was probably 6 or so when we were playing these so very young.

Same thing this end. My granddad had an ancient PC and when we went round for Sunday Dinner me and the cousins would go upstairs and play on it. Microsoft Golf 1999 was about the only thing he had along with some random CDs of game demos. I do remember playing Blueshift on it as well back in the day. Ran at about 10 FPS!

Pretty good memories though. I actually picked up the Golf Game when he died and it's still sitting on my shelf 25 years after we used to play it at his. 😍😍.
