Nutsy Doodleheimer Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 You picked the best place but pics of the system and games would really help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperboy Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 AtariAge is the best place to get any info you need on anything Atari but as Retrogamer said, pics would go a long way in helping to find what you seek. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZippyRedPlumber Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Ironically, that's exactly how I found my Atari... XD Found my Dad's Sears in the Attic Crawlspace/Closet back in 2006 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconfan5832 Posted November 25, 2015 Author Share Posted November 25, 2015 What I can tell so far,its a Sears telegame system with 4 joysticks,and four paddles.Woodgrain on the front,6 switches(havent seen if it still works)original instructions that came with it.Couldn't find the game that it shows on the box,but the cartidges that are with it,all in the box but they're not mint by any stretch,and some are Sears versions: Pac-man,asteriods,donkey-kong,galaga,etc and some game catalogs.Ill post some pictures when I find my camera.

Philflound Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Galaga? Or do you mean Galaxian? I look forward to seeing the pics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micheloni2600 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I'm sure I'm no help but, it's just a standard 2600, Atari had a license agreement with Sears to form a team and bond in able to sell the console in their stores. Thus making the "Video Arcade Model". Which I'm assuming is what you have here. Hope to see pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forrestsmith Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Nice find, First Year Sears Heavy Sixer. I tell people I only play games on Sears gaming systems and they give me an odd look Forrest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutsy Doodleheimer Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Nice Sears Heavy Sixer. I just bought one on the marketplace a week ago and it is shipped out on it's way. Can't wait to get it. I like the walnut veneer and the silver cart slot bezel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperboy Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Damn nice find! Nice selection of games and a beautiful H-Sixer..Treat her with respect like she deserves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raticon Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Wonderful to find a heavy sixer just like that! And all the stuff lokks like it's in great condition too! never mind the boxes a bit bent and roughed up, most people lost theird probably 30 years ago .

falconfan5832 Posted December 4, 2015 Author Share Posted December 4, 2015 Just to say,this is NOT an attempt to drive up prices on what I have.Long story short,I dont have a job,so I wont be able to do the shipping costs.The system and the games aren't going anywhere,except back in their closet where I found them.So keep me in mind if you see something you want,but don't let it stop you from looking elsewhere,because I don't know how long it'll be. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigO Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Hopefully a local transaction will materialize for you if you really want to sell it. You could always go the Craigslist route if necessary. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atari181 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) I would be interested in Time Pilot when/if you sell. Edited December 7, 2015 by atari181 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofrills100 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Maybe as an Australian we have a different postal system. Because I don't understand why shipping costs would stop you from selling something? Don't you just calculate shillings costs online and then add it to what you want to sell your item for? If someone wants to pay that amount then it is sold. Or am I missing something? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
