Hello friends, I've been a fan of Dink Smallwood for many years now. First time I ever played the game was in 1999, right after Seth released it as freeware.
I've always been curious about the original release though, I take it that it came in a classic Big Box like old PC games used to. I've been looking for such a copy for years on Ebay, but nothing ever comes up, has anyone ever seen one or even has one? I'd like to see some photos!

I think Seth may have the last one. Well, the last one that's location is known. He has one in this video.

Hi, I just added unboxing video of Dink Smallwood (big box) to Youtube. Just write "Dink Smallwood Unboxing" into search, my video should be on the first page. Regards

I saw a British copy still shrink-wrapped on eBay recently. I honestly didn't care enough to buy it.
Hmm... Seems there's someone selling copied discs of it on eBay. They've even stolen RobJ's review

Wow.. I just did a search and yeh.. that's not cool. Someone should contact Seth about that.

Why are none of my sceenshots there, and we should try to get back at that person who did that.
Maybe Ms.Dink can lecture him like she would normally do. We just make sure she doesn't fall asleep during it.

Hey guys, for those interested, there's a guy on ebay selling boxed copies of Dink Smallwood .
http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0&_nkw=dink+smallwood&_sacat=0&_from=R40
Price is quite reasonable, considering I've never seen it on ebay before or anywhere else for that matter. I got myself a copy of the cheaper one, now waiting for it to get delivered. I can't believe I'm going to have a boxed copy of the freeware game I first played back in 1999 on a PC magazine CDROM .
Thanks Seth for the great memories of me and my brother playing on our Pentium 133 and of course, beheading ducks .

Yeah, sealed and unbeliavable price.

And it's here! Me and my brother just had a moment there, it was as if he was 14 again and I was 5, playing the game for the first time.
Got my piece of gaming history today. This game and community is incredible. I can't believe I'm still doing this.
Why doesn't Seth sell anymore CDs, he might make money from us?
Make what, like $5 from one or two people? It's not really worth it.
It would be more like 20 or so, and some of us would want to prove ourselves as true Dinkers.
OR SO!!
Still he might be able to sell it as a new brand of gaming for the XBOX720.
