I've never heard of anyone selling real end labels by themselves. I think most people simply reattach labels when they fall off carts--I know I do. Unless someone located a source of excess labels that were never attached to games I doubt you'll find many loose end labels out there.. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atari70s Posted July 22, 2001 Author Share Posted July 22, 2001 Albert that is not what i really wanted to hear lol. i have seen atari 2700 labels "real" on ebay that sold for liek 330$ or somethign but i got a gem mint looking crazyclimber like pulled right out of the box( no box or manual) btu the one bad thing is no end label. i picked up for 80 cents ata thrift shop by me. i was disapointed tehre wasnt a end lbale but for 80 cents where you gonna find a crazy climber that cheap. if anyone has a dead crazuy climber or extra label contact me i really need a end label for this cart. albert isnt putting a home made label on a cart bad and discredits value to the cart.

Albert Posted July 22, 2001 Share Posted July 22, 2001 quotealbert isnt putting a home made label on a cart bad and discredits value to the cart. I don't think putting the home made label on the cart will discredit the cart as much as it missing the original end label. If you stick a home made label on it, someone can always pull that off to have the "original" cart that was simply missing the end label. It would probably be fairly easy to make an end label that looks pretty damn close to the original, complete with that glossy look & feel. I've never tried to do this, but certainly someone must have. I wouldn't worry about it too much, someday maybe you'll get a Crazy Climber with a proper end label and then you can trade yours away for some other games you don't have. Might not be as valuable as a Crazy Climber with its end label intact, but it'll still be worth more than your average cart! ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with Albert. You just value it like a cart with no end label. I buy the games to own and play them. A lack of an end label doesn't make me feel the cart is not worth owning. I mean, I ain't giving up my River Patrol 'cause it doesn't have an end label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atari70s Posted July 22, 2001 Author Share Posted July 22, 2001 oh yes dont get me wrong this is a cart that will live with me till i can get a better one but i always thought putting an endlabel on may be hard to get off or may damage teh cart in some way . and mayeb remove value to it. thats why with 3 of my carts i just thought better to leave them alone. it would be cool though to have a place where you cna buy original labels for liek 20 or 40 $ and then not have ot worry about things like this. btu i buy for teh collecting not as much playing red. so it is imporant to me to haev both labels( 509 complete labels anbd 4 missing end labels.) still not a bad run.

hurt Posted July 22, 2001 Share Posted July 22, 2001 the only way i could see this happing is if someone took a dead cart and started to gut it for labels and i think the processes would be very hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atari70s Posted July 22, 2001 Author Share Posted July 22, 2001 yea id agree there hurt but i feel there should be a place where u can buy offical atari labels for some games (not protos ) but likereg released carts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
