King Atari Posted December 9, 2001 Share Posted December 9, 2001 OOH, I'm bidding now! Seriously, I wonder what the bright blue colored end-labeless game is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cvga Posted December 9, 2001 Share Posted December 9, 2001 It's probably King Kong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariDude Posted December 9, 2001 Share Posted December 9, 2001 This person must be out of their mind. No way $425. Maybe it was a typo and they meant to type $42.50. Also this person has no established history. Do they really believe that someone would pay $425 for an item when they have no history?

Albert Posted December 9, 2001 Share Posted December 9, 2001 quote: Originally posted by cvga: It's probably King Kong I agree, there aren't too many blue carts like that in the 2600 library. Here's a scan of King Kong we have online. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sway3 Posted December 9, 2001 Share Posted December 9, 2001 Well, it actually makes a little sense. Here is what happened: Newbie surfs eBay. Newbie beholds Atari auction by Sumseller. Newbie says, "Hey, I, Newbie, have that exact Atari. Wow." Sumguy bids on Atari at same time Sumotherguy bids on said Atari. Newbie continues to observe. Bidding war of Sumguys commences. Newbie continues to observe. Sumthirdguy snipes auction with 2 seconds left and gleefully wins at $450 for 50 games. Sumthirdguy then happily paypals ~$500 to Sumseller, both Sums are quite content. Well, except the two bidding-war-Sums who lost the auction. *(This is not necessarily fantastic - I just got $300.00 for a 30 game system that did NOT include King Kong or Deadly Ducks, I assure you.) Newbie says to self, "Newbie-self, if Sumseller can sell that 50 game system for $450.00, surely you, Newbie-self, can sell your 55 game system for $425.00 easily... and then purchase the PS2 GT Pack with a cool Bennie to spare!" Hence your rediculous auction that will never get a bid... unless liquid_sky does something DRASTIC!! /shudder Want to see something interesting? When you research past Atari 2600 systems sold on eBay in the last 2 weeks by highest prices, three of the top 5 auctions are mine. Look Here I have a few more auctions on that page... even my brother has one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
