+bent_pin Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 I will buy most anything space invaders, dig dug, space shuttle, pitfall, or river raid related, so long as they are small. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+bent_pin Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Needs recapping I'm sure. Anyone have schematics for this particular unit? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re correct, there’s no doubt that is the same one. Regarding my deal, there’s a little more to it now. After we went back and forth when he cancelled, I pleaded for him to keep his deal to me. He ended up offering it to me for what the other guy offered (which was twice what I paid). I reluctantly agreed because it was something I really wanted, but not crazy about being extorted. So the deal went through and I should have it. Currently on a cruise so I can’t see it yet but the package arrived. Once I got it, I left bad feedback for his practices. He of course got p#$sed, but those kind of practices need to be reported. Here’s what I was after in the lot that someone else tried to poach after the sale. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+chicgamer Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Bought my fourth Arcade1up cabinet today. It needs a little work cosmetically, but that just gives me a reason to mod it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari_Bill Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 An unexpected recent pickup that I’m extremely happy about. AtariAge newsletter Vol 1 #1. This completes my AtariAge run Hall of Fame scoreboard as sold in the Atari Club catalog AtariAge poster of the AtariAge #1 mag as sold in the catalog. Still with mailer tube. Also, 2 Swordquest Certificates of Merit for the entering the contest. I don’t think I’ve ever seen these before. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4300 Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Threw out a low bid on this Apple IIe monitor and somehow managed to win it. And it actually arrived unbroken. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is sweet. Congrats on the pickup. We had Apple IIe's in our high school computer lab and I loved them. The only thing missing from your picture is a Silentype printer. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari_Bill Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Finally nabbed an Odyssey 1 Run 1 with the ‘Test Container’ designation. Outer box is quite rough, but the inner box is fine. Got a great deal on this one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the very least, I found out that hi-res mode text is a lot easier to read if I turn the color all the way down on my TV. It's just not as nostalgic as the green.

I missed getting it by one month since I have the other newsletter vol 1 number 2, which I consider to be the rarest Atari VCS/2600 item I own. Great finds...

dwh Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Had to buy two auctions to make a numbers matching Sears Breakaway IV text label 49-75107. Now impatiently waiting for the cib picture label version.(Actually a lot of picture label ones) Still climbing Sears mountain...started at base camp with my back in the day copy of Haunted House, now have eight 19 quart boxes of cib Sears releases. The top of the mountain is shrouded in perpetual fog.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
