    Yes, totally fake repro by everyone's friend Randy at Hozer. The Hozer Head logo is giveaway #1. The "glossy" label is giveaway #2. Wizard Games labels were just cheap matte label stock.

    Aww, I clicked on it fully expecting "a person who is known by three letters who, if you say those letters or his name, returns to AA with a massive flood of unhinged page-long posts repeating his own name every other word."

     

    You all know who I mean, and I genuinely caution anyone who replies to this to PLEASE DO NOT POST HIS NAME OR INITIALS.

    Person or maybe an 80s rap group?

    ORIGINAL ARCADE VIDEO GAMES (Flatiron)

     

    can be exchanged for barter. sold by a private medical clinic, so if you have great medical insurance with a zero deductible and are willing to come in for an office visit we can negotiate the price

    I cannot believe this is even allowed to be on Ebay,  The seller is basically leaving a digital footprint of the intent of insurance fraud.

    Ok. Something isn't right. School girl in a short dress (supposedly bought) the item for 199.00 but no buyer is listed. Then a special auction for the same item (she?) buys from the same seller for 999.95? Again, no buyer listed. Is (she?) gaming the system by having fake auction buys? Is (she?) in cohoots with the seller? Anyway she has an auction for the CB cartridge at 3999.00 and then I get this in my email? This is a cartridge she has been trying to sell for a year? Anyone wish to surmise on what the heck (she?) is up to?

     

    Item ID: 133978733665
    Buy It Now price: $3,999.00
    Your offer: $2,999.00
    Offer expires: Mar-07 18:43:48 PST
    Seller: school_girl_in_a_short_dress(1,742)

    I dont see anything that looks like she purchased it for $200.  It looks like it sold,  A message informing the seler that She would pay $1000 was sent,  The seller re-negs on the sale and sells to her for 1K.  

     

    Yes, she already has one for sale or 4K and sent you an offer.

    What up.  Some key titles went missing from my collection and I need to re-up.  I realize I don't have much street cred here but I'm a longtime NA and VGS member with the same handle.  @G-type can probably vouch for me.  

     

    Anyway, I'm looking for the following titles:

     

    Breakout

    Super Breakout

    H.E.R.O.

    Kaboom!

    Montezuma's Revenge

    River Raid

    Star Wars Jedi Arena

    Tempest (I didn't actually own this one but I still need it.)

     

    Tempest was not an Atari 2600 game.  There is a prototype out there that you can actually have Atariage make a copy for you, but it is not a complete game.

    You need to put in your terms that refunds are not given unless the product is returned and that you are not responsible for loss of product durring shipping. You can then tell them to piss off if they attempt this scam. When I sell, seller must return the item damaged or not before a refund is ever even remotely considered.. I also do not pay return shipping, that is on them too. . 

    You can put whatever terms you want.  Ebay can/will decide to pay or charge you for return shipping and they will decide if the buyer gets a refund.  Pictures and/or video is the best defense against scammers.

    Here’s something special (at least to me) that I just found.  Really excited to get this as I have a love for all things Sears Tele Games.  It is apparently a dealer preview from 1977.  It shows products they are making as well as some that never saw production.  All done in the 70s art styles.  Also shows how Sears displays should be set up on site.  Here are a few pics.  I’ll get more out soon.  Anyone ever run across this before?

    Hi gang.

     

    i spent about 30 hours working on this. Hope you enjoy: 

     

    25 Most Expensive Atari 2600 Games (From 2002 to 2022)

    I watched the video and appreciate the time you put into it, however, I am not sure how accurate it is.  I think using Rarityguide.com as a source of prices is probably not the most accurate depiction of today's pricing.

     

    I dont believe Rarityguide has updated Atari pricing in years.  Many of the Atari 2600 games on the site have pricing that is way out of whack with what some titles are selling for now. 

  9. I would call this number 866-540-3229.  This should get you to a live US representitive, explain the situation and they will ask you to submit the pictures to them.  I would say you have very little chance winning against a refund request unless you call.
