zanza Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 At 100 $ ?? Definitely not for me too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liveinabin Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 Wow, I must letraset 2800 on my 7800 and flog it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jahfish Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 i tried even more ... but the guy knows what it's worth .... the problem is that it was released in japan after the NES system (can you believe that?) and therefore it was only produced in smaller ammounts, so japanese collectors allready pay 300$ without even thinking about it before .... that means for us: +++$$$$! btw please not another ebay rant here .... what will happend on this auction (whatever it is) will be absolutely normal! i'd pay 40 bucks for the sticker on the console Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassidy Nolen Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 I will wait to see where it goes. I figure 400+ for it. A little out of my range, but would love to have one. Cassidy Think he would trade an arcade for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jahfish Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 we could bet 5$ what the reserve price is ....? i'd say 145 [ 03-08-2002: Message not edited by: jahfish ] [ 03-08-2002: Message edited by: jahfish ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jahfish Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 personally, i'd never ever separate from this beauty. and if i had a second one, i'd finally have a good trade item for my friend rick [ 03-08-2002: Message edited by: jahfish ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATARIPITBULL Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 That is one nice system there but I can tell it will cost way to much money in the end for this Pitbull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian M Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 This is definitely one of those "have I ever paid too much for something I really wanted" dilemmas. If you really want this, bid now because who knows when the next one will show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco(2) Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 Come on guys, it's a very nice console and quite rare too, but it's not a CX-2000 or 2700. They pop up on Yahoo.jp a couple of times per year so you better get yourself a good Japanese contact instead of wasting your time on fish's bet Cheers, Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawgWyld Posted March 6, 2002 Share Posted March 6, 2002 quote: Originally posted by CosmicJoke: There is an Atari 2800 on eBay! CHECK IT OUT here Looks like a sweet deal for someone. Y'all start bidding like crazy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Gill Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 It looks just like my Sears Video Arcade II. I have the same controllers and everything. I would imagine that the American Sears version is quite a bit cheaper. -Chuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moycon Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 No-one has hit the reserve yet. We've only got 3 guesses. JahFish= $250 or 300 Which is it? Malix= $270 moycon = $145 Who else!!??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco(2) Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 quote: Originally posted by jahfish: does that mean you think i am right about the reserve price? No idea. All I know is there was a boxed one on Yahoo.jp a month two ago, which had a reserve of $400. Cheers, Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomyou Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 I'll guess the reserve at $300 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
