TomBrazil Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Hello again, I ran across this console, and immediately bought it. According to DP guide, it is a rarity 8, $$$ value - same as the Japanese Atari 2800 I posted some days ago. This rare Brazilian console is working nicely - has a missing button here and there, but they also work. Now, can you tell me: 1) Is this less, more or equal in rarity, comparing it with the 2800? (the rates are the same according to DP) 2) What would be the market price, or how much would someone pays for this console? (consider a perfect item and compare to this, with missing buttons) Pictures below... Regards, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindfield Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Well, I can't speak for its rarity, but given that it's missing all but two of its buttons, and (at least in my opinion) it's ... erm ... well, rather an ugly looking console, I'd have to say the 2800 is likely worth a great deal more than that one.

Bruce Tomlin Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Yeah, it's rare and all, but the reason the 2800 is more desirable is that it's a rare console that was made by Atari. A rare Dynacom console is probably equivalent to a rare Famiclone in desirability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamemaster_ca_2003 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 DP says its worth $0 Just like most other Clone Systems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Tomlin Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 DP says its worth $0 Just like most other Clone Systems It's worth what any two people are willing to pay for it, just like anything else. But I can't see it being of much interest to any but completist niche console collectors, or someone with a special interest in Dynacom. If I found one, I probably keep it, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get one. I've got one Dynacom cart (from someone on r.g.v.c), but that's about the limit of my interest in Brazilian 2600 variations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomBrazil Posted February 27, 2005 Author Share Posted February 27, 2005 DP says its worth $0 Just like most other Clone Systems A R8 couldnt be worth 0, and DP dont rate like that. Bruce is right on the approach about the price, when says is worth what someone would like to pay. Now, I wonder that it is in this case I'll play with it this weekend, then decide if I'm gonna sell.

sku_u Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 DP says its worth $0 Just like most other Clone Systems A R8 couldnt be worth 0, and DP dont rate like that. Bruce is right on the approach about the price, when says is worth what someone would like to pay. Now, I wonder that it is in this case I'll play with it this weekend, then decide if I'm gonna sell. The only reason there's a stated value of $0 in the DP guide is because there wasn't enough information about the system when they went to pressing. They do that when there's not enough information rather than arbitrarily assigning a dollar figure. If that were in better condition, you'd be able to get a nice amount for it, even more if it were boxed and complete. In that condition, you should still be able to get something for it, but not much. Put it up on Ebay with a $9.99 starting price and see where it goes from there.

sku_u Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 On a separate note, I was wondering if I could add the second image to our Database when I do the next update? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomBrazil Posted February 27, 2005 Author Share Posted February 27, 2005 I have one of those. but mine is white. A white one... I didn't know about this... can you post pictures? Where did you find it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osbo Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 I wish I could, but the system is in my folks attic in my country. It was my first system, one of these days I'll get around and get my dad to ship me the console with the games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomBrazil Posted February 28, 2005 Author Share Posted February 28, 2005 Found this... I think it contributes for a good package. I'll probably try to sell/ trade this here before start an auction. I'll let you know first, and then move the thread to Marketplace. (please ignore the cart condition, consider the perfect original stick) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomBrazil Posted March 21, 2005 Author Share Posted March 21, 2005 Hello guys, To all thread followers... I'd like to let you know that I just posted another Dynavison, in very good shape, in Marketplace... this one, with missing buttons, I left in my collection. So, if you're interested, please take a look: http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=66636 Regards, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
san-d-2000 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 During my visit to Rio, I left several of those behind at the fleamarkets. I dont think they are that rare. -Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
