Any reason why this is $1k?

That seller is always overpriced. He also has a couple pong units up for $2800.

 

Eh, maybe if the cabinets were really nice I could see paying $1k for a pong arcade machine. But almost $3k is ridiculous.

 

They are not the arcade version, just various Atari/Sears home pong systems

:-o You're shitting me!?! If this guy had an arcade pong what do you think he would charge? $1.2m?? Somebody needs to drive over to his house and give him a great big slap.

Yea, he is pretty crazy. They have been up there for years... you would think he'd get the idea by now :ponder:

I understand it's complete in box, but as best as I can tell it's just a heavy-6 with 9 common games. Am I missing something? I was thinking $100 most.

Just because someone has an asking price, does not mean it's worth that.

100% correct :)

Dick sells a lot of stuff. All it takes is one buyer.

 

He is 68 years old and still is selling a lot of stuff. You might not like his prices but he is a nice guy.

 

 

Sith Lord Dick and his apprentice Darth McGrail? :P

LMFAO, but he is right. He just sold a $100 pong for $225. It only takes one. :roll:

Here is what cracks me up, in the QA for the pong unit we find this:

 

Q: I have an identical Super Pong system. Would you be interested in purchasing from me? Jan-25-09

A: I do not buy off line. List it and I will bid.

 

Translation:

Q: Would you buy my pong unit for the (ridiculously high) price you are listing yours for?

A: I do not pay such exorbitant prices myself. List yours as an auction so I can pay a lower (reasonable) price while I list mine with a high BIN in the hopes someone buys it without shopping around.

because it has "STELLA AT 20" in this lot.i wish i had an extra 1k to spend right now.

 

He has another listing right now (item 370153075601) which is very similar but without the system box, for $650 BIN. It also has a Stella at 20 videotape.

 

I'd be willing to bet you could find someone to sell you a S@20 videotape a lot cheaper than that though.

Boy , 1,000 dollars for an atari, Please dont make me bid,hold me back, But ya know, it does have the box though, there should be a test people have to take before they sell and buy on ebay.

It's nice that all the original stuff is there. The CX-10s even have hex disks (though those could be reproductions). But it's missing one of the most expensive parts to make it an everything-from-launch-day set... the 61 Basic Math box. (Wouldn't be $1K with it, either.)
