iwan-iwanowitsch-goratschin Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 It´s a rarity 8 out of 10 at the atarimania database........ Have a look! http://www.atarimania.com/detail_soft.php?...;VERSION_ID=794 I am only in sealed Atari 2600 games so I can´t help you on this one. Possibly Rom Hunter can help you!

Much better lowercase - Bet bet is to check eBay and see if you can find what a previous copy sold for. Most diskette software doesnt sell for very much except for the rare release or box cases - I think you'll find most go for under $20 Dont mistake the 5200 Bristles with the 800 one. The 5200 cart was a new release and has a different value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FastRobPlus Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 It's very hard to peg most A8 games. The exceptions are the dirt common games and the very desirable games, which we know the approximate values of. Bristles is neither of these so I'd guess it's range is US $9-$50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. For disk. But it has to be boxed and in fair or better condition. On eBay, I normally automaticly bid on any boxed disk A8 software with a rarity of 7 to 9 and a starting price of $10 or below if that helps any.

kchris73 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 A sealed new old stock (NOS) complete in box (CIB) copy went for $84.55 USD in July 2006. A non-sealed CIB copy went for 31.5 Euros in January 2006. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deathtrappomegranate Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 FastRobPlus is right. It's very difficult to predict how much something like this will fetch on eBay. Prices for Atari 8-bit software are very volatile, except, as he said, for the very desirable rarities, and the always-available-in-large-numbers titles. In the case of Bristles, the cartridge version would probably be a little more valuable than the disk, especially sealed, but it would be very difficult to predict the final price of an eBay auction. Do you have any other Atari 8-bit stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deathtrappomegranate Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 do u have any sites that mite tell me the price of this game. No. There have been websites that have recorded final sale prices for A8 games on eBay, but they were not at all reliable in terms of predicting future prices. FastRobPlus has already given you as good advice as you're likely to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+atari2600land Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 What I want to know is why did he PM me with the same question and I tried to reply to it but I couldn't because his PM was disabled. I have no idea about anything 400/800. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApolloBoy Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 What I want to know is why did he PM me with the same question and I tried to reply to it but I couldn't because his PM was disabled. I have no idea about anything 400/800. He did the same thing with me. I still wonder why I couldn't respond to him; perhaps because he's a new member?

8th lutz Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 The person also pm me. I know very little about the 400 and the 800 computer. I am not the person ask as a result. I have a dp guide, but it only shows the value of the cartidges of the games, not games on computer disks. I figured the person would be sticking to the forum for asking about the game.

deathtrappomegranate Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 The A8 DP guide is not very useful, even for cartridges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjlazer Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Its clear the OP is hoping he has a rare gem so he can collect his $500 but the harsh reality is its a disk and also not all that rare. Its hard to say how much its worth. Could be $10 or $100. Just place it on ripoffbay with a starting bid that Is comfortinle with you and see what happens. Me personally I don't pay more than $40 for any disk based stuff as it is sure to not work due to age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
