atari 8-bit carts boxed easier to find than I thought, but..

They sure are expensive... so far the places I've seen want $20+ for alot of these, as compared to 2600, 7800, 5200, and lynx which tend to be about 50% cheaper in alot of cases.

 

Ah well....

Have you tried Bravo Sierra Computers?

He may be able to help you. He may or may not have anything boxed, but he sells 8-bit carts pretty darn cheap ($5 in many cases)

Yeah I think the other places I looked at sell them loose pretty cheap. I figured if I have the opportunity to get something boxed I might as well.

 

But at least this guy has variance in his prices... some places I perused have the same stupid price, and for common carts as well!

 

At the time my focus is on my handhelds (lynx, etc), but since I noticed a decent amount of atari 8-bit carts (more than I thought) I decided to compile some lists.

 

I think it'd be kinda cool to get a 130XEG system for the family to play. Not too comfortable letting them use my precious 130xe with the 1050 drive and disks. But carts would do nice.

 

Funny thing is... I always felt the game boxes for the computer were kinda ugly. lol.
