Kaiju Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Hey team, just reaching out for some advice, been going back and forth with an eBay seller for a boxed copy ("sealed" but ripped shrink wrap) Best he can do is 96.21.. odd number I'm assuming shipping charges. My only knowledge is via eBay, is that a good price? What should I try to get it for? New/sealed isn't my goal just complete 7800 us collection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sramirez2008 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Unfortunetly, even the CIB copy's seem to sell for about $100 on eBay. However, there are a couple of loose carts available for sale on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 If you're patient, should be able to get a loose cart for $30-$40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I know the one you're speaking of. The shirk has recessed at the bottom of the box. It would be nice to get it for $75 but as mentioned above, the price CIB has held for a while now at around $100. Myself I don't think it's a $100 title as there was a pallet of them found 10 years ago so there are lot of them out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinks Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I bought my loose cart for I think 50 bucks about 7 years ago.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I bought my loose cart for I think 50 bucks about 7 years ago.. With all do respect, $50 seven years ago would have been overpaying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinks Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 With all do respect, $50 seven years ago would have been overpaying. Thats ok.. I agree 35-40 would have been good. Just wanted it I guess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sramirez2008 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 My records indicate that I paid $75 for my CIB back in March of 2015. I remember it being a bit pricey back then, but I really wanted to add it to my collection. Kaiju, if your just looking to complete your collection, check out one of the below auctions. One of the is for an untested cart. Maybe you can negotiate the price of that cart. eBay Auction -- Item Number: 263171606018 eBay Auction -- Item Number: 151928025891 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jinks Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Could probably get 50 for it today. Someone would... that one ebay pic someone put a sticker on the label. For F#$k sakes why do people do that? They bought it for 99 cents..lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaiju Posted October 18, 2017 Author Share Posted October 18, 2017 Thanks guys. Ill hold off, while I like playing my 7800, this feels like the collector in me trying to justify to my self... Besides my grail item currently is a Cib Ninja Golf..one day. One day 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sramirez2008 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I love Ninja Golf, one of my 7800 Favs. I picked up a new copy back in 2015. Another game that has become quite pricey. Hope you can find a deal on a CIB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinks Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Cib=dust collector. Loose cart = play whenever I feel like. I just hate taking them out of boxes... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Cib=dust collector. Loose cart = play whenever I feel like. I just hate taking them out of boxes... I feel the same way. For the very few titles I want to have CIB I either buy an extra loose cart to play or just keep the box on the shelf and the cart within reach to play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Put the boxes away and use universal game cases with inserts you've printed yourself! Especially helps keep those slippery 7800 carts better organized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jeremiahjt Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I bought two sealed for $25 each from Atari2600.com about 8 years ago. One of my best buys. Still have the extra sealed if interested. Would rather trade for something like the Spy Hunter joystick holder, but that is a pipe dream. Let me know if you are interested.
