bretthorror Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 I've always wanted a trakball. Pisses me off that I passed up on buying one for $15 shipped brand new on Ebay. I'm not sure how well it works with the games, but I want one in my collection and I don't think any other system has one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homerwannabee Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 And you want to know the scary thing. This is actually the second track ball he bought in the past 2 weeks. And the other one was also boxed and $27 plus $16 shipping and handling. Who the heck pays $43 total for a boxed track ball and then pays double that in 2 weeks. I personally think this may be someone who is a billionaire. Only a billionaire would pay this type of money for these type of items so often.

I'd have let him have the disks for Windows 286 for considerably less than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwackery Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 I have 2 of these kind of trak-balls (used to have a third, but I gave it to a friend), one CIB and one NIB. I bought them back in 1998 from some computer company (can't remember which one - it wasn't TigerDirect) that somehow had come across a huge supply of these things, several hundred or so, and they were dumping them at something like 2 bucks each, and they were advertising these in a regular print catalog, not via the internet. I felt like buying more - a LOT more - at the time, but I had no place to store them. (Also, the company had a minimum order of $20 or $25 dollars, and I was buying some other computer parts and just tossed on the trak-balls to get me up to the minimum purchase. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uzumaki Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Just a guess but Allelectronics? They sometimes have odd supply of old stuff and I seems to remember they had bit of old Atari stock at one time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goochman Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 I got 2 for $9.99 total - though the place I ordered it from had a $15 minimum on credit cards so I got a miniscrew driver set and a jewelers magnifier as well there must be a typo with the decimal point!

Crazy Climber Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 I think I paid 20 for mine (NIB) a while back Bought it for Missile Command TB and it didn't even work right, I had to play in joystick mode. I guess some of the Missile command TB games had that problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
