Elektro33 Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 Just wondering, I have an insider deal from as friend, he says i can have it for $40.00, just wondering if thats worth it- and wondering the actual value you would say. Also it comes with several games- all boxed as well, although many seem very common, as if they came with the system- did the 2600 heavy sixer come with games right out of the box (besides combat)? I think it sounds great and I'll probably go for it. Its been in his attic for years and has never used it, I can't believe it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elektro33 Posted June 3, 2002 Author Share Posted June 3, 2002 also some tips about trying not to be so excited about it would be nice.... who would u approach a deal like this without the person going "u act like it may be worth more.... give me $70.00 for it " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAZ Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 Well I've seen Atari 2600's on Ebay (heavy sixers or not) selling for $50 without boxes...and you say this is new in the box never used. That IS amazing. I'm sure I could see it fetching $100 on ebay pretty easily. Course, what would you do with a never used boxed Atari 2600? Leave it in the box unopened, or would you open it up? If you already have a playable 2600, perhaps you should keep it in its box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliColts Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 Is there a serial # on the outside of the box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tizoc Posted June 4, 2002 Share Posted June 4, 2002 I once saw a sealed 5200 go for around $400 on ebay. This was a long time ago though. I made an offer for a sealed 7800, $200, it had 4 games shrinkwrapped to the bottom. The guy laughed, and said he'd just keep it. My guess is that a new sealed heavy sixer would go for a lot on ebay.

CaliColts Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 My point is about the serial # on the box is, I believe ALL Sunnyvale sixers had a label on the box with the serial # of the unit. My thinking is this is the only way to tell if it is a sealed Sunnyvale unit. If anyone knows different, I'd like to hear it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elektro33 Posted June 5, 2002 Author Share Posted June 5, 2002 i dont have the unit yet, but I'll eventually persuade this non-atarian into giving it up, i have five PSX games and 6 Demos, along with $15 Bucks with his name on it (and he seemed happy about it! and so did i!!!) Gahh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATARIPITBULL Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 I payed $115 about two 1/2 years ago for my never played mint in the box 2600, and I have seen sealed boxed 2600jr systems going for as high as $200 on ebay this year alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
