When I purchased this set a few years back I paid $80.00 per box. It sold for far less. Not sure how much a "complete set" would go for though.

Yeah, these were only the launch titles. As launch titles go, I *think* these were complete. If not, they were close. But thanks everyone! The boxes are now sold and I'm out of a jam! Thanks so much!

Thanks! I'll double check. When I acquired these, the only titles I was aware of not being part of the collection were two Sesame Street titles from the children's series. It would have been an additional $160 for those two boxes so I opted not to purchase them at the time since I was going to have these all framed, and wanted to display all of the silver boxes without "Bigbird Yellow" becoming part of the scene : )

Okay everyone, Justin is having a FIRE SALE! I never thought I'd let go of these but the time has come. I have a complete set of Atari 2800 retail boxes for all of the 2800's silver-box launch titles. (yes, Atari 2800, Japanese 2600 launch, I'm sure we are all well versed so I'll skip the history lesson here. ) The collection is extra special in the fact that these were attained directly from Atari's Art Department upon closing. The retail boxes are in absolutely pristine condition - never assembled, glued or folded together - these are flat boxes direct from the art department. Each of the boxes has been preserved inside a plastic protective sleeve with a cardboard backing to protect the boxes from bending. There are no dents, no tears, probably no finger prints. And of course the boxes have been preserved in a clean environment away from sunlight and humidity. (I would have included a few pictures but I'm having trouble with my camera right now. If I can get some pictures, I will of course load them. I must say though, they really are in absolute pristine condition.) The boxes featured in this collection were printed for the following titles: Asteroids Pac-Man Centipede Defender Joust Battlezone Star Raiders (large box) Missile Command Galaxian Berzerk Space Invaders E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial Super Breakout SwordQuest: EarthWorld SwordQuest: FireWorld Raiders of the Lost Ark Again, these came straight out of Atari's art dept. and were never glued, folded or placed on a retail shelf. I must let go of these as part of a "fire sale", and would like to see them go to a good home that could truly appreciate the insane rarity of these items, so I thought I would see if there was any interest here on AtariAge before I have to resort to listing the collection on eBay. If anyone is interested, please send me a PM and I will get back to you as soon as I can. All the best, Justin

Hey guys. 7800.com is my website, I've had it since 2000. It will always be on line so long as I'm alive : ) I haven't had time to update the website in some time, I'm pretty comfortable with most of the information up there in addition to all that Mitch has on his site and all that's here on Atari Age. When I get around to it (sometime in the next year or so..) the site will be updated with a new look and will have a similar layout to my other website TurboGrafx-16.com The site will always be entirely dedicated towards the historical aspects of the 7800, with a smaller focus on the rest of Atari. I always welcome new ideas for updates : ) Hope everyone is well!

I have 7800 Fatal Run CIB if anyone is still looking : )

The PS One Combo and the Atari 5200 have both been sold. Thank you!!! The Atari 2600 still remains sealed inside its minty fresh box awaiting a nice home. Any takers?

If anyone is interested, I have a Jaguar kisok (one controller) in extremely good condition. It has been assembled but has never been placed on display publicly. If anyone is still interested in a Jag kiosk, and willing to arrange for shipping, I would be more than happy to entertain any reasonable offer. I don't have pictures at the moment as I just happened to stumble across this posting, but the kiosk is identical to all of the other Jag kiosks and includes the Atari monitor, Jag system, and one controller in the kiosk stand in very nice condition. My email is jscott@syio.com if you are interested. Also, my ebay id is syzygyio and I have a 100% feedback score : ) All the best, Justin

LOL absolutely! I can prettymuch guarantee that! Just like buying one brand new off the shelf with Uncle Rico "back in '82"

Thanks PBJ! I posted a response in that thread. Hopefully this 5200 can find a good home.

Thanks PBJ! Yes, I indeed have what you are looking for. A minty fresh 5200 4-Port system brand new in the box. If you're interested I welcome any serious offers, my email is jscott@syio.com. I've had a bit of interest in this system today, but no takers just yet. I wanted to offer this up to everyone on Atari Age first because I knew this 5200 was special and deserved a good home : ) Best wishes! Justin

Since we're on this subject I thought now would be a good time to post this. I used to order directly from Atari back in the early to mid 1990's (especially during that "Pre-Jaguar" period where the 7800 was essentially gone and the Lynx was trying to hang on the best it could at the back of the game aisle at Toys R Us") I'll have to scan more pricelists, but here is an official Atari 7800 price list from August, 1993. This is exactly what they would have sent you had you called and requested information on their games. They also used to have a cool Lynx brochure that was in full color, but that was about it.

In addition to my NES games that I posted earlier, I'm selling three of my minty fresh game systems: an Atari 2600 (Black "Vader" System) Atari 5200 (large box) and PS One Combo Unit (with PS One Video Screen) all of which are still absolutely brand new in the box and never played. Any reasonable offer will be accepted. These systems come from my own private collection and have never once been opened. The PS One still has the factory seal intact as you can see in the photos provided. I purchased these items some time ago and have made sure that the systems have been safely stored in a climate controlled, non-smoking, humidity-free environment away from static or sunlight. In addition to the systems, I am including a new game with each minty fresh system. The Atari 2600 comes with a brand new & Autographed Ms. Pac-Man, the Atari 5200 comes with a brand new & complete copy of 5200 Pitfall!, and the PS One will come with a new copy of Xevious 3D+G I'm offering these up on AtariAge because I want these to go to someone who will truly appreciate them. I reallllllly need to sell these and will accept any reasonable offer if you wish to make one. My ebay member name is syzygyio and I have 100% positive feedback. If you are interested, please email me at jscott@syio.com, I am happy to accept PayPal or personal check. Again, any reasonable offer for these systems will be accepted, but unfortunately I cannot go for any trades right now as I really need to recover some of what I had paid for these systems if possible. I'd be happy to email any additional photos or documentation if you're interested. All of these systems are brand new and in absolutely pristine condition, their retail boxes show very little wear. I can ship via UPS Insured Ground Service with tracking if you live in the continental United States. Please email me at jscott@syio.com if you are interested in making an offer. Thanks guys! Justin

I'm selling three of my most prized NES collectibles: Pinball (1985 Release) Super Mario Bros. 3, and Dr. Mario, all shrinkwrapped new in the box for the Nintendo Entertainment System. I'm offering these up on AtariAge because I want these to go to someone who will truly appreciate them. I reallllllly need to sell these and will accept any reasonable offer. My ebay member name is syzygyio and I have 100% positive feedback. If you are interested, please email me at jscott@syio.com, I am happy to accept PayPal or personal check. Again, any reasonable offer for these games will be accepted, but I cannot go for any trades right now as I really need to recover some of what I had paid for these games if possible. I'd be happy to email any additional photos or documentation if you're interested. All games are in absolutely pristine condition and remain in their factory shrink wrap without any wear, and have been stored in a climate controlled area away from sunlight, inside clear plastic shells. I can ship via UPS Insured Ground Service with tracking, free of charge if you live in the continental United States. The games can be sold individually or as a lot if you are interested. I just want to get these games sold :-) Please email me at jscott@syio.com if you are interested in making an offer. Thanks guys! Justin

That question is a TEMPEST in a teapot.
