Shawn Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Do you mind if I ask what you paid for your box? ( You can send me a pm ) I'd like to compare for what I paid for mine. I'm going to mod mine with the cord extracted and have some El Tape inside with a plug for power that follows the joystick cord. They range from $50 to $100 a box.

SoulBlazer Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I want to give a shout out to Troy who has been most helpful to myself and cubelindo. He set aside two joysticks for us (one for me, one for him), is allowing me to buy them outside of EBay (less hassle that way) and is not even charging me shipping! Totally awesome guy all around.

Troy_Whelan Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 All Tron Joysticks are now sold, thanks for the participation! Troy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy_Whelan Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 They range from $50 to $100 a box. Just to be sure you are talking about the same thing, Bodyshots is asking about a box of 10 Tron Joystick controllers and not about the individual boxed controllers. For me buying a box of 10 and selling 8 to AtariAge members with free shipping and 1 to an eBay member, that allowed me to keep 1 controller for free and have a couple of dollars to pay for gas to the post office.

Bodyshots Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Not everyone reads the Wanted ads, so I quickly wanted to add that if anyone has the original boxes/packaging for the Tron game and Tron joystick, or the Tron joystick 'mail in offer', then please pm me if you are considering selling it.

Ya the boxes of 10 is what I ment. They can be had for around $100 and shipping out of South America no problem. Some folks get better deals than $100 but that is a going rate from what completed auctions I've seen. Like this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bulk-Of-10-Official-Disney-Tron-Joystick-Controller-For-Atari-Vcs-2600-Brand-New-/271497915489?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f36896c61&nma=true&si=8nhj8%252F5BCCEdj9B78xaxTMACzHs%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 And there are plenty more to be had at that price also.

Shawn Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Thread got pretty quiet after I posted the price tag on a box full of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy_Whelan Posted July 1, 2014 Author Share Posted July 1, 2014 $100 for a box + $65 shipping is typical from what I have seen. Invest in a box of 10 ($165), sell 9 ($270) with free shipping (-$63) less eBay / PayPal fees (-$27), and you get to keep 1 controller + post office gas money ($15) for the troubles. Not much else to say about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodyshots Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I'm still waiting on parts for my joystick mods. If it looks good, and there is interest, maybe I'll buy more and during the winter when I have more time I'll sell 'em. It's more of a showpiece/eye candy, even though they'll work. It's more of a passion then a money maker, so you know the priority level on that one... David Hasselhoff said, "Thread got pretty quiet after I posted the price tag on a box full of these.

+stupus Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I figured the thread got quiet right about the same time troy sold all 9 of his extras quickly....not much to say once they are gone. And the link hasselholf points to above showing where these can be had for $100 is the exact auction troy bought...I don't see these going for less anywhere...very happy with my new unopened one I got for 29 including shipping from troy...Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Where? All I'm gonna say is Motorodeo and leave it at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodyshots Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 All I'm gonna say is Motorodeo and leave it at that. I have no clue, but if I was to guess is it Revo since he was selling a case of that game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
