Jetboot Jack Posted July 31, 2002 Share Posted July 31, 2002 I'd reckon on about $50 - since they available new for between $75 and $100 from several suppliers... sTeVE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetboot Jack Posted July 31, 2002 Share Posted July 31, 2002 http://www.myatari.com/bc800hw.txt - lists prices for XEGS packages - new in box or unboxed... At those prices its tempting to get a couple to hoard sTeVE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory DG Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 ??? XEGM? I'm curious to know why it's being refered to this way by both www.myatari.com and allbombguy? I've always called it the XEGS... Is there some other variation for the name of this machine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetboot Jack Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 I've always known it as the XEGS or the XE4001 - that was the name used during development of games for it at ATARI UK... sTeVE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisjohn Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 I paid A$50 + shipping for my boxed, complete, but secondhand, XEGS. I also paid A$50 for my recent 800XL +tape drive +disk drive +printer I found in a swap-meet. I'd say it's worth roughly US$25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allbombguy Posted August 1, 2002 Author Share Posted August 1, 2002 Ive heard it both XEGS and XEGM i use both haha, just used the m this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Sauron Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 I've always heard it as the XEGS. And I'd say it's worth about $1.00, and I'll be willing to take it off your hands for that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Kay Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 I've been wanting to get my hands on one of these cheap on e-bay for the last year or so (I really don't know why - I already have a 130XE and a light gun... I guess the novelty of having an XEGS). Naturally my el-cheapo bids are always quashed... Anyhow, from what I've seen on e-bay I would value it between 50 and a hundred bucks... Cheers!

oesii Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 The XEGS must be going up a little in value on ebay because I picked up 2 separate lots of the system, light gun, joystick, and a few carts for $20 and $30 last year. Most people were paying more for nice XL's and XE's and ignorning the XEGS but I guess we have a few more interested buyers these days.

Atari Joe Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 myatari gieves them away too cheaply. brand new XE system should be about 150 or 200 i dont know lance at video 61 has them new in box for maybe 300 or so i dont know but they are worth alot. people who pay 50 only get them used. i say you hold out on your system for a good price but that is my opinoin. thanx joe.

Jetboot Jack Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 Joe - I think you're way off with $150/200 - $100 is the max these things are worth new.... Those are the kind of silly prices that make the ebay idiots go loony to buy! sTeVE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Sauron Posted August 2, 2002 Share Posted August 2, 2002 Even $100 is too much for them. Why must we put up with these insane prices....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
