solidus8 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 (edited) Woke up this morning and out of boredom checked ebay. What caught my eye was an auction for Atari 7800 +53 games. The vast majority of them are pretty common 2600 titles...but what got me is that for $275(or best offer mind you ) there was absolutely no guarantee as to the quality. He said and I quote "HAVE NOT TEST PLAYED IT" yet "TESTED WITH MY UNIVERSAL POWER SUPPLY AND THE POWER LIGHT COMES ON" and finally for your money "AS-IS". Hmmmm....is it just me or has the price for Atari stuff gone up? Well, take a look and you be the judge. http://cgi.ebay.com/ATARI-7800-PROSYSTEM-5...93%3A1|294%3A50 Edited January 11, 2009 by solidus8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Just sent him a question about the universal adaptor he used to power up the 7800 cause the jack on an atari 7800 is propriatary and unique to the 7800. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirage Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Well, no, the price of (most) Atari stuff has not gone up. There have always been and always will be people asking (and sometimes paying) stupid prices for things, including for junk. From what I've seen, most Atari stuff (actual average selling prices) has gone down in value the past few years. (And yes, I like parenthesis today).
