+atari2600land Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I'm intrigued by the Atari Lynx at my used video game store. They want $50 for it and I think it comes with three games (I think one is called Toki, which is a rarity 3). Is this too much or about right? I have no idea, see my username Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricDeLee Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I'd say $50 is too high Grab a used one from someone here for about $20-30 That's my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frenchcat Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 It depends on the games! Is it boxed ? is it perfect condition ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+atari2600land Posted April 28, 2007 Author Share Posted April 28, 2007 The games were loose. No box for the Lynx either. It does come with a carrying-case-type thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I paid 26$ for my lynx II on eb@y with the game rampage, a man posted it as "buy it now". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Kai Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I payed about $50 for a complete like new Lynx II. For a used loose Lynx, you can probably snag one on ebay for around $25 or less even. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidcalgary29 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 $50 isn't a bad deal for a working Lynx with Toki and two other games. Shipping may run $10-$15 per system, so if you resort to eBay, you'll still be looking at a price of around $40 for a comparable system. If you throw in shipping frustrations and hassles along with the possibility that the unit may be damaged in transit, I'd stick with the local system. Besides, if there's a problem, you can always demand a refund/credit from your local seller. That will be a lot harder to do if the seller is halfway around the country -- or the world.

Atari5200 Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 i got my Lynx II on the bay for .99 cents with $10 shipping, I guess nobody wanted to bid because it was missing a battery cover. I then bought a battery cover for like $3 shipped. sometimes you just get lucky with what you find on the bay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giltygear Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I ended up getting mine for about $50 with an AC and 5 boxed games... even got a carrying case too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V.R Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 The Lynx is alot more expensive than it used to be some years ago. I really do believe they have grown in popularity. They go for decent prices here in Australia. However I agree that $50 is to expensive, Id search elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
