Not sure about these

This seller is selling three different 2600s as "promotional 2600s." He took a picture of one of them on an Atari demo kiosk. Does anyone know what the deal is with these? I tried emailing the guy asking for some cart pictures and he didn't respond.

I saw those this morning and I was also wondering about the accuracy of the listing. Are all those 4 switches? Then they weren't made in 1977 like he claims, or is there something covering up the two inside switches? Should be fun to find out

Nope. These look like 4 switch models which means one of two things, he made a mistake or he's a con. I vote for number two.

I see these on the fleamarket all the time, I've seen 4 switch and 6 switch systems. They have the words "promotional - not for sale" burned into the underside of the machine. No big thing if you ask me. So what if he has 3 of them, I would probably have 10 by now if I picked up every 2600 I see.

If you notice (at least in the last auction) that the 2600 in the box is different than the one out of the box!

This guy either used stock photos or only took a few pictures and applied them to all auctions. The Ataris in the pictures are not from 1977, but are later models.
