Crazy Climber Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Missle Command (rare R5) Night Driver (rare R6) Just a heads up on these two games, the "rare" ones are the Sears picture label versions. The Atari brand picture labels are more like an R1-R2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sears Night Rider end label is orange, yours is yellow, cosistant with the atari release The Sears Missile command end label is more reddish, yours is orange consistant with the atari release and the instruction book you have shown is from the Atari release. My analysis, you have the atari releases Guess I have a little too much free time at work today 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveVFX4 Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 ok thanks guys. while you're helping out here, what do you think of my asking price for everything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariBrian Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 well being sold on aa typically people want the stuff for free lol . there are usually pretty good deals on here. i recently sold a 4 switch woody with about 75 games and a driving controller, paddle controllers, 1 star raiders touchpad, 1 gold refurbed controller and 1 regular and a game center and only got 110 for it. good luck to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveVFX4 Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 ^ok thanks, I lowered the price some for now. I may just end up trying Ebay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariBrian Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 might not be a bad idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveVFX4 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 Ok, I realize my price is still high. I'm open to offers, but I'm thinking I may just list it on Ebay this weekend starting a 1 cent and let the highest bidder determine what's it worth.

AtariBrian Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 i think putting it on ebay would be a good idea. probably start it at your minimum asking price though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Climber Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Ok, I realize my price is still high. I'm open to offers, but I'm thinking I may just list it on Ebay this weekend starting a 1 cent and let the highest bidder determine what's it worth. Yeah, it's a little high. For common stuff you have to figure around a buck a game (including shipping) If it was my lot I would probably price it around $150 shipped to the US but I price stuff to sell quick Ebay can be good sometimes, it's really hit or miss with large lots like this. The fee's/etc suck ass also. If you start it at a penny though and don't mind taking the gamble it could sell cheap I bet you would do alright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveVFX4 Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 (edited) ^$150 shipped would not be worth it to me, especially if the buyer was on the West Coast, it would cost over $65 to ship. East Coast appears to be $25-$40 to ship. I think $140 plus actual shipping cost would be fair for my entire lot?

If you ditch the storage containers you should be able to ship it for $20-$30 USPS parcel post, nobody likes those anyways Just saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East Coast appears to be $25-$40 to ship. I think $140 plus actual shipping cost would be fair for my entire lot? I think $140 plus actual shipping would be a reasonable price if you can find someone who doesn't already have all those games and wants an instant collection. It might be a little hard to find that person at AtariAge though. Maybe a newbie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toptenmaterial Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 His general price range ain't that bad for someone looking to get into atari. It's like a buck per common cart. My advice to the OP is to be patient and hang in there, you may have to hold out for a little while. Don't panic and plunge your price.

AtariTexas Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 So overall not to far from your original asking price. Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveVFX4 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 ^yes, not bad but when you consider all the fees, I'm only clearing around $115. I also tried to sell locally on craigslist for over a month, and only got one lowball offer of $70. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
