AtariDealBuyer Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Hey, There is a #9 rare Atari 2600 cartridge "Color Bar Generator Cart" from Video Soft on Ebay. Starting price $370.00. I don't get the game but... What should a good price for this be? It has the working cartridge, simple no frills box and the Users Guide. What is it worth? https://www.ebay.com/itm/204238996218 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holygrailvideogames.com Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 The Color Bar Generator auction ends tonight. It will be interesting to see how much it sells for. The shipping box isn't available to purchase very often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralHellfire Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 I already have the cart but took a shot at this complete auction tonight. Fell short. Congrats to whoever got it. Hope it was a fellow atariage member. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_Bill Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 $2269. That’s a hefty sum for that, but you may never see another box for this. I guess if you’ve got the means….. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffg Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 I am somewhat new. Not as heavy Atari collectors as a lot of guys. What’s inside joke on school girl and dress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something isn't right. School girl in a short dress (supposedly bought) the item for 199.00 but no buyer is listed. Then a special auction for the same item (she?) buys from the same seller for 999.95? Again, no buyer listed. Is (she?) gaming the system by having fake auction buys? Is (she?) in cohoots with the seller? Anyway she has an auction for the CB cartridge at 3999.00 and then I get this in my email? This is a cartridge she has been trying to sell for a year? Anyone wish to surmise on what the heck (she?) is up to? Item ID: 133978733665 Buy It Now price: $3,999.00 Your offer: $2,999.00 Offer expires: Mar-07 18:43:48 PST Seller: school_girl_in_a_short_dress(1,742) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like it sold, A message informing the seler that She would pay $1000 was sent, The seller re-negs on the sale and sells to her for 1K. Yes, she already has one for sale or 4K and sent you an offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, that individual was trying to negotiate a side deal with the seller but was unable to do so and someone else ended up purchasing it the second time. I'll let the actual buyer step forward on his own if he chooses. But either way, a certain person in a dress did not end up with the item.

jeffg Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 (edited) I am that other party. I stumbled upon the school girl special auction early morning and messaged the guy asking if I could buy. he said she was dragging him along on it and said if I wanted to buy go ahead. I have about 400 CIB Atari in my collection but nothing like this. wanted to wait until it showed up which it did today. I might trade at some point for more stuff I want for personal collection but right now it’s a cool centerpiece for my collection. the guy is a big old pc guy. He buys out old repair shops in Ohio and other states and sells that stuff. He got this 10 years ago from an old tv pc repair shop that closed down.

+Psionic Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 I'm glad you ended up with instead of our gender-bending friend. Although I wonder who the original buyer was who got screwed out of that initial $199 Buy It Now. Had there been no interference, that would've been quite the steal.

jeffg Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 (edited) The seller had a 10% off coupon so ended up $895 which still was a good deal and at least in hand of a collector. I am down to 8 cib Atari 5200 games when I get to the last 2 or 3 this might go up to finish up that set and get me a few other mid range games too.
