Trying to sell Atari 2600 and 5200 games

I am trying to sell all of these games, but before I do I need to find out how much they are. If anybody can either help me with a link, or a toy appraiser in the Baltimore, Md., York, Pa. or Harrisburg, Pa. areas, I would appreciate it. I do not have a system to test if they work or not, but if they are worth it, I will buy one. They have not been played in around 35 years.

Pretty much all the games that you have are common or very common; rating "2" or "1" from the rarity perspective.

 

http://atariage.com/software_search.php?SystemID=2600; use that to gauge the value of them. If you're selling those in around my area; you would get $0.50 to $2 depending on the generosity. The star wars, the activision titles, superman and alien are probably worth slightly more, but their condition is not great. I have a bunch of "repeats" like that myself and some stores aren't even interested because they have boxes of those loose cartridges.

 

Honestly, the binders those games are in may be the most valuable items in those pics.

Price the 2600 (VCS) carts at $1, the 5200 carts (more than 1?) at $2-$3. Those are some of the grungiest carts I'vs ever seen BTW. Nice starter collection though.

 

I tried selling a batch of 30 commons back to a couple game stores in my area & was told they'd give me 05-.10 per cart. That's CENTS.

 

What's under the 5200 PacMan cart? It's covering it in the pic.

 

I wouldnt mind those storage binders. You could sell those & force the buyer to take the games with them.

Those are the types of games I give away (for free) to people who are just getting into collecting and need somewhere to start.

I'd try to sell just the games as a bundle on Craigslist for around $30.00 but be willing to take $20. It would not be worth the time or hassle trying to sell them as a bundle or individually on ebay. The shipping would cost more than the final bids on most of them.

 

The storage binders are cool and I would put those on ebay.

How many storage binders & what shape are they in? No cracked plastic? Nice covers? They each hold 8 carts, I count 4 or 5 binders?

 

I'd consider buying those from you, unless you want to use them as incentive to move the carts.
