bigfriendly Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) If yes how much $$$ did you have to surrender to get it and how did you obtain it? Feel free to tell me your story as I would really like to hear about it. Thanks Scott Edited June 29, 2015 by bigfriendly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntavio Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 At a CGE live auction, in either 2010 or 2012, a shrinkwrapped copy of Waterworld went for around $400. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennybrooks Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 One sold on Ebay within the past 18 months. I believe it went for around $800, but I could be wrong, it may have ended up higher. The box had a crease in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 No.. But I own an unopened can of whoop a$$!! If you really need the game I think it's on the Atari Anthology for several formats!

Mayhem Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Yes, my copy of Waterworld is still sealed. Shrink has warped the box a bit thought, which is par for the course over 30 years. I believe I paid $75 for it, but this was 10+ years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenjunior Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 River, why didn't you open/play it when you bought it? (I'm going on the assumption you bought it when it was released and you as a child vs a few years ago) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I'm going on the assumption you bought it when it was released and you as a child vs a few years ago)are you talking to Mayhem? Ten years ago Atari was not a current system so it was most likely purchased as a collectable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philflound Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I wish I could've gotten a sealed copy for $75. Phil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayhem Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I'm unsure of the exact price, but it wasn't a huge amount. One of those "yeah I'll take that" moments. I think it was soon after or before getting the Quadrun, and I decided to go for all the Atari Club games. Took an age to find the Gravitar though... I bought that from someone who got it traded into his store for $1! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+RichG1972 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I don't even own an OPENED copy of it, it's the Atari needle in the haystack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
