phattyboombatty Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Well, I guess the secret's out. Looks like we have another AIR RAID discovery, with box. I looked around, and haven't seen anyone else pointing to this Craigslist post just yet. I e-mailed the poster and inconspicuously asked about the sale. She replied with "I'm currently asking $20,000 for the Air Raid box and cartridge only no instructions." She also mentioned GameGavel. So have a look! Pic posted in case she takes down the posting. Link to the original sale. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chigti Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I just don't understand, all the crap she has, and it just so happens she has Air Raid. How do the oddest people have it, yet none of us can become a soul owner, at least without being drained and raped completely of all we have.

Chigti Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Sorry brothers, just frustrated right now. I might need to sell everything I have collected. Today was a bad day for me, I'm sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofrills100 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Your attitude is all wrong. It doesn't matter who has what, and what it is worth. You either like atari for playing or for collecting, or for both. Just collect if it excites you, the hunt, the OCD As soon as you are frustrated about what things cost and who has what... Then you should move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, just frustrating. And about selling my collection, its a financial thing. I'm not giving up the hunt. I enjoy displaying and playing my Atari games, the 80's were the best times of my life.

Chigti Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Well, the question is, how many are in existence, confirmed (Air Raid), and would it still fetch $20,000-$30,000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's surely not worth that much, but I suspect certain people will try to keep prices up as with some other items. Some items have been hyped up and some items have been sold below value given the rarity. So some prices are going up and some are coming down. Air Raid will be one of those fetching less in the long term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofrills100 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 So the first sold for 31,000 The subsequent second and third examples sold for 15,000 and 10,000 give or take if I remember correctly. I'd put the value of a forth example definitely under 10,000. I'm going to guess the sale price will be $8,450 Anyone else care to play 'the price is right'.

But I'm sure that there are only very few people willing to spend that much and with more boxed Air Raids showing up the price will drop to the same level as Karate and equally rare games.

I'm sure the second didn't sell for over 20k. Wonder may have done a trade up of sorts, but I don't recall it being 30k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Oh yes, it did. I could tell you how much the one single CIB copy of Air Raid cost Jose (after selling the one without the manual), but I promised not to. He brought the CIB over to my house and told me the whole story. Devotion, baby! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofrills100 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Wow... That's a whole lot of money! Do you recall what the third went for then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre81 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 It seems the prices for a few 20th Century Fox game have dropped for a long time to come. I'm glad I haven't bought them before this warehouse find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkiker2089 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Cool news. Is there a link to an article about it? I can't find one. I want to know who has them as Fantastic Voyage is one I wanted to get actually. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
