Marek.Schmidt Posted April 27, 2002 Share Posted April 27, 2002 Just want to know it. In case i live in Bremerhaven in Germany (a little little Town). Its really hard to find some Games here for the Atari VCS 2600, and just Ebay is really boring, in case you dont find it really cheap. Is it so easy in USA to find many games? I saw the pics of "how hold Carts" I tried and tried and tried, but i seem to be unable to get such a hugh amount of Games here. I nearly have 50+ Games. How do you all manage to get such big Collections? Really i am Impressed! Respekt! marek (just another Newbie....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liquid_sky Posted April 27, 2002 Share Posted April 27, 2002 It all depends on where you live, no matter what country you are in. Some areas have tons of stuff , others like mine and yours, have nothing at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marek.Schmidt Posted April 27, 2002 Author Share Posted April 27, 2002 flea markets... i think i know what you mean thats the one other thing i got mine from. But mostly the markets here are really small, so there is 1! (in words: ONE) person selling 5-10 Atari Games. And then mostly not for good prices. And to trade with others, you first have to have some Cart. double don't ya? So trading is not for me for now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyXB Posted April 27, 2002 Share Posted April 27, 2002 I am from Berlin, for years I have found many on fleamarkets. But I have not collect at the beginning, so I have miss many. At the beginning of my Collection I have found some great games on fleamarkest. And there some stores, where you can buy old videogames. But now I found nothing on fleamarkets anymore. All gone. So in germany is this very hard to find games in the wild. I buy the most games on ebay. There I find the most good and Rare games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Günther Maybe, but he can't be on all fleamarkets at the same time. So I hope that I find somewhere a game when he is on another fleamarket. Last weeks I have only see 2 Atari 2600 VCS games, but I don't have buy them. One was Solaris with Color Lable (why I don't have buy it I don't know), and the other was one that I already have if I not wrong. But that is all what I have found after month. So I must be faster then Fish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marek.Schmidt Posted April 27, 2002 Author Share Posted April 27, 2002 some times i find an dealer for VCS-Games. But if an dealer don't sell many games for special conditions, then i will not buy. 1 Game = 5€ 50 Games = 5€ each? I thought then the dealers should say: 50? okay then 3€ each. Then i would buy, but some price when i take such masses? No thanks, such dealers are not very fine. So i have to wait for good conditions... Did anyone of you have some double games he wants to sell cheap? If Yes -------> 122138599 is my ICQ# i nearly Take anything, in case i dont have much game for now...
