Ransom Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Hey! Did you swipe my collection? No, I guess not. You have a few things I don't. Best wishes selling it, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Alexander Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 (edited) Wow I would love to buy your collection but I don't think I have a few grand to offer right now. If you do decide to sell certain parts separately I am interested in the Masterplay 5200 Joystick Interface - Boxed!, Wico Command Control Joystick - Includes Y Cable, Wico Keypad, Meteorites. Miner: 2049er Quest for Quintana Roo Anyway best wishes from the Atari 5200 Podcast . Edited November 25, 2016 by Protestari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King_Salamon Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 You know... I always wanted a 5200. It's the one system I never, ever owned. Other than someone saying a few grand... what would be a ballpark amount? I do need to get myself a nice Christmas present... what would be a fair starting price to negotiate?

Tempest Posted November 25, 2016 Author Share Posted November 25, 2016 I honestly don't know. Someone else asked me that as well. I guess I'll have to look into it. Feel free to shoot me an offer in the meantime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glazball Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Yea, beautiful eyecandy Tempest! Wow amazing collection! I found this site, must be new, not sure how accurate or legit it is. http://gamevaluenow.com/atari-5200 I have no affiliation with the site, but I do use it all the time and the site owner/admin is a very nice guy. He started a thread here about his 2600 list: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/258894-looking-for-some-feedback-on-my-recently-updated-2600-game-list/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stupus Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 Yeah tempest, great collection! If you start parting it, I would take quest for Quintana Roo and meteorites. Only 2 I need besides the big boy. I also need loose manuals for zenji and gorf if you or anybody reading has spares! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted November 27, 2016 Author Share Posted November 27, 2016 I'd trade some of it for a nice CoCo 3 setup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isgoed Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 They sure made great artwork in those days.... very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+-^CrossBow^- Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 I agree that Tempest should try and sell it all at once if he can. But should you decide otherwise, I could really use that Beamrider box and manual to go with my loose cart? Wouldn't mind those 2port and 4port loopback boards you have also. But I think you might still be able to get these from Best...I should check on that... I too lack Meteorites but I know that will be way beyond my allowed limit during the holidays LOL! Good luck with it Matt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+-^CrossBow^- Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Hi, can you kindly tell me what the 2port and 4port loopback boards are for? Thanks. You use them with the Diagnostic cart to test the cartridge ports and for calibrating the pokey for centering the controllers without actually plugging in controllers. Using them is the only real sure fire way to calibrate the controller ports properly. without them, you use best guess using a few games like Missile Command...etc to see where the crosshair lines up when first powering on the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted November 29, 2016 Author Share Posted November 29, 2016 One more bump for selling this as a lot. I may break it up later though. Maybe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keatah Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Are you sure you want to sell it? Got a good reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted November 30, 2016 Author Share Posted November 30, 2016 Are you sure you want to sell it? Got a good reason? No and No. I have a multi-cart so I don't need the physical carts anymore. They just sit there on my shelf looking pretty, but that's about it. Money is always nice, useful for many things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenpp72 Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) Got excited and almost started submitting offers without reading the whole lot or nothing part, doh. Good luck on the sale though, looks nice! If you ever decide to part it up at all i'll be posting a topic in the wanted area Edited December 3, 2016 by goldenpp72 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted December 4, 2016 Author Share Posted December 4, 2016 I may break it up in a bit. I still need to decide if I want to sell it at all. Feel free to PM me an offer for various things if you want though, maybe it will push me into action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
