Dino Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Hi Everyone, So I want an Air Raid for my collection. Is $2000 the current going rate? Does anyone actually have one for sale for less? To the 8 or 9 people who do own one what did you pay for yours if you don't mind telling? Seeing there is already one bidder with good feedback I am thinking $2000 area is fair? What do you guys think? Yes I also agree for $2000 he should of bought an Atari to show it works. The last copy that sold on e-bay went for $2k to someone that already had it. The last copy that sold to a new collector sold for $1,500, which is the lowest this has sold at an ebay auction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomicSpaceJunk Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Here's something interesting...if you toggle the power switch on and off you can catch a faint glimpse of what looks like a title screen. the image rolls up the screen and only lasts a millisecond, but I can definitely see the word menavision. I don't know if anyone else has ever seen this, but I thought I would post my discovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The actual game screen is supposed to look like this: But since it has a strange scan line count, part of the screen is cut off by the TV.

EricDeLee Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Wasn't this Air Raid the pone that was pulled a few months back? I thought the guy said his parents had it/bought it back in the day (new), and then he decided to put it away and to sell it later. Now it is stating that it was bought at a garage sale?

Two totally different sellers. The one a few months back was in Texas. This one lives in Georgia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 So there is just over 6hrs left on this little blue demon. Any guesses to the sale price? I'm gonna guess between $2,400 and $2,700. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxman Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 I just realized that ebay counts down on the time left without having to hit refresh. Never noticed that before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zwackery Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 I just realized that ebay counts down on the time left without having to hit refresh. Never noticed that before. Yeah, but it isn't always smooth. Depending on data traffic, I've seen the timer "hiccup" as much as 2 or 3 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screamin1 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 I bid the Air Raid up to $2,700 but I guess someone wanted it more. I am willing to pay, but I don't want to overpay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homerwannabee Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 (edited) I was surprised it went to $2850 personally. I was that the seller was going to have to sell the cart more than one time with the starting price of $1999. I really don't know what to think about rarity 10 games anymore. The prices for these games seem to be all over the place. Still it seems that rarest games have had healthy prices in the past 6 months.

VectorGamer Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 OK, now what does the buyer do with a $2850 cart? Put it in a tub in their collection? Insure it? Move it to a deposit box? It's good for the hobby to have some value to it. Personally, I think it's crazy to buy a $2800 cart (strictly based on my household income).

TomBrazil Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Hello guys, Who bought it after all? Anyone from here? Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buyatari Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 I'm shocked at this one. It is amazing how some South American games of equal rarity never caught on but this one still hangs in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
