A piece of software

Apart of a professional software engineer, I'm also an enthusiastic collector of physical vintage PC software. As I was given my first PC in 1997 at the age of fifteen from my parents, I was fully hit by what we now call the Golden Age of Games. Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, The Secret of Monkey Island, Redneck Rampage, Commander Keen, WinZip, Windows 95… – that was my software equipment. Over the years of collecting, I've purchased on eBay what I had illegally at those teen years. But there are still many titles missing in my collection. Do you have any of them? If yes, I'd love to know about it, although I'll be very thankfull for any piece of software in original retail packaging from the 1980's or 1990's – games, utilities, operating systems, simply anything. Many thanks in advance!
