+LS650 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I have been thinking of buying a couple of games I'm missing from my Lynx collection, and when I was Googling for used Lynx stuff in Canada, I found a classified ad for sale right here in my hometown. Price was $60 Canadian, or about $45 US. The bundle was for an Atari Lynx II in excellent shape (screen is perfect) with a sun visor and 14 games. The games all have the manuals but no boxes. Baseball Heroes Basketbrawl Batman Returns Casino Crystal Mines II KLAX Pitfighter Rampage RoadBlasters Rygar STUN Runner Telegames' Double Dragon Telegames' Ultimate Chess Challenge Todd's Adventures in Slime World Isn't the chess game fairly rare? I think this is a great deal for $45 US. I owned about 8 of those games already, so I'll auction off the duplicates on eBay. That alone might pay for the purchase!

EricDeLee Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Great deal! Yes, the Chess games is fairly rare. In fact most Telegames items are rare. So I think you got a fairly nice deal compared to what I have seen on the market. Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwinChargers Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I'd too say that's a great deal as well! I'd guess that the duplicates will almost easily pay for the purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emehr Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 That's an excellent deal! I know Casino and Rampage are fairly uncommon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm jealous! the local place i get games at sometimes only has 1 copy of NFL football (which i hear is horrible) and games i already have. I wish i could find Stun Runner, Rampage, Klax, and Double Dragon. I'd probably pay $10 for each of those games! I know you can buy them online, but after shipping, the more rare games get a bit too expensive for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LS650 Posted January 22, 2009 Author Share Posted January 22, 2009 The best part is that the Lynx I already had has screen with a few faded pixels and is a bit more washed out. This second Lynx is like brand new - it has a superb picture! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
