Good_Times Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Guy in my area is asking $80 for these games. Includes a crusty console and some instruction books. One way to look at it: A buck per game and a "crusty console" + manuals free. I'd offer him three crispy $20s and see where it goes from there.... Also, Porky's is included. Can't hardly say no to Porky's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keatah Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Dollar per game? Only roms are cheaper. Take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nanochess Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Dollar per cartridge, I like it. I would bargain given the dusty look "look pal, I've to clean everything, it's pretty dirty, besides some cartridges doesn't have labels, maybe some even doesn't work" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidus79001 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I you don't have a console already or those game then it $80 isn't a bad deal as it would cost your considerably more to purchase the equivalent of this purchase on ebay (same titles and consoles). The one thing I did notice is that he had several duplicate cartridges. Also notice several didn't have labels. Still not a bad deal. If you don't have a 2600 and looking to start collecting then this is a decent deal in terms of price and 30 minutes isn't a far ride.

Sapicco Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 If you don't own them all already, just buy it. It's only 80 bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxpressed Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Does Albert still buy carts for the store? If so, you can trade unwanted carts for AA store credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+groundtrooper Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Does Albert still buy carts for the store? If so, you can trade unwanted carts for AA store credit. Yes as long as they aren't busted up, scratched up or have marker or nail polish ID on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good_Times Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Does Albert still buy carts for the store? If so, you can trade unwanted carts for AA store credit. I'm all about the idea of this, but I'm thinking that the shipping would be a kick in the nuts and cancel out any potential value for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxpressed Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I think Albert pays for shipping. Could be misremembering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flojomojo Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 He's firm on $80 and I have drive about 30 minutes. I'm on the fence. I wouldn't drive 30 minutes for those. Too many doubles, too high a price. I'd give him $60 if he brought them to me, maybe. If you start out on the fence, you're likely to feel buyer's remorse afterwards. Let it go, there will be others, and if there aren't, you'll survive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stewart_Pidd Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 As has been said already, $1 per cart is a good deal. If any of these games help fill in a collection for you, even better. Instead of worrying about it being a good deal to others, just ask yourself if it's a good deal for you and if you think $1 a cart is a good purchase.

0078265317 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 I counted 83 games. So 80 dollars devided 83 games is actually 0.963855421686747. So less than 1 dollar a game. 96 cents a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 96 cents per game + a bit of console hardware (no matter how janky it is) is worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osgeld Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 (edited) id do it I about ran my local game store out of his old priced atari games, which is fine he has quite a glare... usually he says oh 2600 games are 2 for one with the ones on the shelf marked 3-4$ which for 2 isnt too bad, but I found the tub of them under one of the tables marked a dollar lol Edited September 16, 2017 by Osgeld Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I'd buy it, looks like a heck of a deal. Sure, mostly common, and a few dupes, but there's more value in the games alone, assuming your up to selling them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
