  1. You can be as negative as you want, at the end of the day it’s not a huge deal to me.

     

    I owned a chain of stores in New Mexico and closed them all. This was part of a huge trade, which included a 400/800. I sold that stuff here, I’m sure you can find the post.

     

    yes, this was in the same lot. I don’t recall if it was tested, so I’d rather say it’s not. 
     

    Continue on with your pessimism on more posts sir, it’s sure to bring much happiness and joy to your life.

     

    At the end of the day, I’ve said it’s untested. I didn’t lie and say it’s tested, so why are you so upset? Simply because I said other things in a lot this came in were? Seems strange buddy, but you do you.

  2. Looking to find a new home for these!

  3. Yep on ebay, the cheaper one was by itself and the other had docs and floppies.

     

    Both already had ROMs installed...

    Interesting! I checked active and sold listings for Magic Sac+ and found no hits. Thank you for the info, I appreciate it. I think then, the most valuable thing I got in the lot is a complete copy of Ultima 2. I can only find one sold listing for that and it was back in July for $350, missing disc 2. My copy is complete with both discs. Guess that's the winner in the lot! It was actually what personally drew me to it.

  4. It's cool but it's non-game software, dumped or not. It will be tough to value, although I think if I had it and I wanted to sell it, I would be looking for $30-$60.

    Thank you Ianoid. Got tons of cool, weird stuff. Posted it to the Facebook AtariAge Marketplace group with pics of the entire lot. :)

  5. I recently came into possession of a large Atari 800 lot with some really interesting stuff in it, that I can find almost nothing about.

     

    One of the items, I already posted was Cardiac Arrest. This one, is called Magic Sac+. A search of AtariAge forums shows one post talking about it with an Ebay link back in 2010 for $199.99.

     

    I'm curious if anyones interested or wants to help me try to put a value or buyer to it? Thanks!

  6. Hello everyone! I recently came into possession of a large Atari lot and it seems that I've stumbled across something quite rare. It's a copy of "Cardiac Arrest" by Mad Scientist Software. I searched Ebay, including sold listings and found nothing. The only thing I could really find on Atari Age was a post where there was a small amount of software that people have not been able to get a verified dump of the rom. This was on it.

     

    I have no interest in keeping it, any ideas of value? Should I put it up for auction or?? Thanks!

  7. Recently came across a Sears Tele-Games heavy sixer. It had all original cords and some joysticks/paddles I hadn't really seen before.

     

    Tried various combinations of "Sears Racing Paddle" "Sears CX20" and more, but couldn't really find anything on these sticks/paddles and how rare/valuable they are.

     

    There are two sets of the tennis paddles that say Sears next to them, and two of the racing paddles, but instead of saying "Driving" they say "Sears".

     

    Are these any more valuable or uncommon that traditional paddles?

     

    Pretty new to Atari collecting so if I misused any terminology or anything, sorry! =P

  8. Welcome to the forums and game collecting!

     

    Here's some info about Sears and the Tele-games brand, along with a rarity guide of the Tele-games carts. https://atariage.com/company_page.html?SystemID=2600&CompanyID=2

     

    To answer your first question, I personally don't use videogames.pricecharting.com on 2600 games unless it's a game that's a 6/10 on the rarity scale or higher, and even then I only use it as a reference. The Tele-games carts you have are common ones and can normally be found loose (cart only) for around $0.50-2 each.

     

    To answer your second question, a loose copy of Tele-games 50 (Pong Sports) is not worth $75 whatsoever. I've been able to find copies of the game for about a dollar.

     

    Good luck with your collection! I hope you enjoy the hobby.

     

    Thank you for the link! Definitely informative. I appreciate it.

     

    It certainly seems like pricing is a bit all over the place. In the same bundle I picked up today I also got "Snoopy and the Red Baron". It seems to go for $30+ on Amazon, but on videogames.pricecharting.com it said it was worth, I believe, around $11.50 or so.

     

    I'm keeping anything and everything I find unless it's a duplicate so the value doesn't matter for now to me, but it is nice to know what sort of dollar figure my growing collection is worth. Thanks again. :)

     

  9. So, I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, and its my first post on the forums so please forgive me if I'm in the wrong place.

     

    I recently started collecting, and am very new to it. I picked up an Atari bundle today from someone and found a slew of various numbered "tele-games".

     

    The one's I acquired are...

     

    Tele-games 3 (Football) This one says "Football" on the top label"

    Tele-games 8 (Canyon Bomber & Sea Bomber) This one says "Canyon Bomber" on the top label

    Tele-games 8 - This one says "Video Chess" on the top label.

    Tele-games 9 (Maze? The top label on this one is gone, and the only game listed on the front face of the cartridge is Maze)

    Tele-games 27 (Shooting Gallery, Planes, Submarines, Ships) This one says "Target Fun" on the top label.

    Tele-games 50 (Pong, Hockey, Soccer, Volleyball, Basketball) This one says "Pong Sports" on the top label.

    Tele-games 112 (Space Invaders) This one says "Space Invaders" on the top label.

     

    I have two questions...

     

    One, I typically use http://videogames.pricecharting.com/ to gauge value on my games. Do I use the top label name to do this here? For instance, if I choose the 2600 list of games on that site, and go to Canyon Bomber, is that the value of my Tele-Games 8 Canyon Bomber cart that has Sea Bomber on it as well?

     

    My second question is, I found this link for Tele-games 50 on Amazon

     

    http://www.amazon.com/50-Tele-Games-Pong-Sports-Atari-2600/dp/B0039MGM80/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1405566636&sr=8-1&keywords=tele-games+50

     

    Is that cart really worth $75+

     

    The value is not important to me as far as a "selling" perspective, but more for personal knowledge. I enjoy educating myself and knowing what my collection is worth.

     

    Thanks!
