SlowCoder Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) I'm thinking about picking up a Sears Breakaway console. However, I've only found one available on eBay, and none on GameGavel. I've also been unable to find videos of them on YouTube. Just curious how common they are? And what would be a good price?

zylon Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I bought one boxed for $10, but that's really not a good indicator. I'd figure $10 loose to $30 boxed is a good range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horseboy Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 It is probably the most common sears pong unit. It is really fun. Just a rebranded Atari Video Pinball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the first I've seen it on ebay, but I see other Sears pong units all the time on there. Is it coveted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From your recent activity on here I am assuming you are just getting into these things. I have been looking for them on Ebay on and off for many years. Sears Pong Sports IV is right up there with Pinball/Breakaway in terms of how common it is. David Winter actually has Pong Sports IV listed as more common in his rarity guide, but neither of them are hard to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only recently (last couple months) started jumping into these. I've got my APF TV Fun and Sears Pong IV, both of which I enjoy. I may eventually try to get an Atari Super Pong unit, but it's not high on my list. Breakaway is different (not pong), so I think that's next on the list.

horseboy Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 It is a really fun game machine. If you are having trouble finding one just get an Atari Video Pinball unit. They show up more often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
