Schizophretard Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 You had me rolling with this one... I'll never look at CIB the same again. Men men men men, manly Men-A-Vision, oo hoo hoo, hoo hoo, oo. Seriously, that would make an awesome Atari museum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Wonder007 Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 Well, I changed my mind at the last minute and won the "true"' CIB Air Raid. So, that means I have a boxed Air Raid available. My box is in better condition than the other one that was sold on ebay (mine is not folded on the side). My cart also seems to be in better condition. Anyway, I am in no rush to sell mine but I have already received inquiries for it so I figure I'd make it known that it is available again. You can see the pics of it from the thread back in 2010 on the sale of mine plus videos that exist on youtube on the sale of it. I rather do this privately than sell it on an auction site so please PM me offers if interested. I will update this thread as the process of this sale goes along. Thanks. - Wonder007 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. - Wonder007 If it were me I would be keeping the best box, the best game, and manual for myself and selling the lesser condition items... or basically just robbing what you didn't have from the recent auction and selling off the rest. Just how I would do it. I'm a condition freak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Words iManifest Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Auction it off. Say you want $14,000 for it, sell 70 raffle tickets at $200 a piece. You get paid, the community has a chance of a lifetime and everybody wins. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about $200 each, but I bet you could sell hundreds of tickets if they were less.. ..Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the.golden.ax Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Not one but two lawyer / legal type AA members got on me when I was giving away $100 prizes in my boxes of crap saying I could get in trouble. If it were allowed (and legal) I'd be willing to play for up to $20 per chance, but then he would have to sell 700 tickets. Dunno if that would work.

I know PayPal won't let you run a raffle, so that would make this more difficult as well. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icemanxp300 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Well how about if people are willing to gift 700 merry christmas transactions at $20 a pop to Wonder007. Then if Wonder007 happened to choose someone from those transactions to be a secret Santa that would be real nice of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can certainly try to skirt around PayPal's rules, but they are rather adept at locking out your account (and holding all your money) at the drop of a hat. Not worth the hassle, it's easier to just sell it outright. ..Al 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be willing to send a check or a $20 I agree, I love the idea of doing it as well, and I'd spend at least $100 on such a chance.. I'm sure many others would as well, especially if you publicized it beyond AtariAge. That's probably where you'd get in trouble, though! ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre81 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 And who is going to be the disinterested observer? Making $14k through the raffle, giving it to a friend as the winner, resell it again. Not saying Wonder007 would do that but all doubts would need to be eliminated. Only way I can think of would be a certifying notary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only way I can think of would be a certifying notary. I've lurked around here for quite awhile before I finally decided to join and I think most people on here seem pretty trustworthy...and...if we stated that $20 was the going rate I wouldn't be too sad to lose it, on principal yes but monetarily I'm ok in life right now. Maybe to expand on what I've said, a small portion could go to some charity so not only does the seller get paid, one of us could own a boxed freakin' Air Raid and we could make some children a little happier for the holidays...If it was charitable would it be an more legal ? I don't mean that as a front either, I try to do nice things for people as often as possible but it could also bring a ton more traffic here and sell a bunch more tickets possible garnering more press and more ticket "donations."

+Wonder007 Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 I have four bids....one has withdrawn so I am down to three.
