Andrew Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Some guy is selling a repro Tempest 5200 cart on eBay. The price on this is through the roof -- I nearly choked when I saw the price... Is it just me or is this an outrageous price? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=1365255629 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchman2000 Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Yes, it is. The multi-cart is cheaper and you get more games! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+-^CrossBow^- Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 I just noticed looking at the first pic in that auction of the cart and label. How is voltman getting the stamped numbers on there?! The string of numbers looks much longer than Atari's 3 number scheme...but still it looks just like the real deal. You have to admit that even though these are Repro...they sure look authentic enough. Still, tempest is on the multicart so it doesn't make much sense why this one is priced so damn high!

MrRetroGamer Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Uninformed bidders get what they deserve - what a real idiot. EBAY is FULL of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holygrailvideogames.com Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Voltman is a great guy. If people are willing to pay that kind of price you can't blame him for taking the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Voltman is a great guy. If people are willing to pay that kind of price you can't blame him for taking the money. Exactly, I don't think $20.00 is too much for the effort it takes to make one of those ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cx2k Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 I just noticed looking at the first pic in that auction of the cart and label. How is voltman getting the stamped numbers on there?! Since I created the label, I'm assuming the numbers are not really there but rather they exist as part of the label template that I scanned in. By the way, if anyone wants these roms/labels and a few others, they're hidden on the CGE page at: http://www.cgexpo.com/roms.html Enjoy, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
