with the protos was a 5200 system and trackball, along with a bunch of regular released games, it wasn't a stash of just protos... that would be truly strange. I Think the whole set up had been there since the early 80s, everything was in good shape. I sold the system and trackball on ebay 5 years back, now I wish I held on to it. The trackball sold for $125. I think the system sold for $50.

At the time I didn't know what the protos were, and I didn't think they were sellable on ebay, so I just held on to them as a curiosity. glad I did!

That is weird that so many carts were stuck down there like that...
