These aren't mine but I thought that someone might be interested. I haven't seen this many sold in one lot before. Some of these are harder to find as well.

Well, he originally had these listed for a starting price of $200 with a $250 BIN. The seller said he wouldn't relist them, but he did.

 

I'm a little surprised someone is bidding on the set for $150. I've got them all, except for Centipede, and I paid a lot less than ~$17 each. Even though 9 out of 10 of the flats are there - the missing one in this guy's set is Asteroids - it still seems kind of pricey to me even for an almost complete set.

 

I've got a spare Haunted House and Battlezone if anyone wants to trade for a Centipede.

Original retail price $0.79 x 9 = $7.11 2009 Ebay price $150 Ouch!

 

I think I still have a Centipede, but I paid close to $40 for it myself. The only one I've never had was Missile Command IIRC.

ehh I dunno is $17 each really that outragous for these? They aren't that common. Sometimes these common games sell boxed for that price. I suppose if you got the posters one at a time in auctions no one was watching you might get a better deal but then you also pay shipping each time you buy one.

Well, some are harder to find than others, this is true, but like a lot of things on eBay this comes down to an issue of patience.

 

If you go to atari2600.com, JC will sell you Battlezone, Missile Command, and Star Raiders @ $14.95 each, Haunted House, Super Breakout, and Warlords @ $9.95 each, and Tempest and Yars' Revenge @ $19.95 each. So $114.60 for all 8 direct from an established Atari e-tailer.

 

I know a few eBay sellers who have been dribbling some of these out over the last couple of years (that data is on my other computer), so again one can find bargains by waiting for those that have already been sold many times and now the demand is lower on them. I look at certain prices as having the "convenience fee" of being able to quickly acquire a bunch (or set) of something and this fee is not necessarily indicative of actual market value.
