Hey Guys!
First time to these forums, but long time Atari lover!
Anyways, I have an opportunity to buy an Atari 5200 Trak-ball controller, new in box. The box is in good condition, just faded a bit, but the controller inside is still in the plastic bag packaging with the tape over the ball, and manual, and it looks awesome. He says he wants around $300 for it, as you don't see them new very often... I'm just wondering, is that anywhere near a fair price? It seems pretty steep to me, but looking on Ebay, I see one that has a crappy beat up box and a cord that is falling apart for $150. What is a fair price for it? Is it worth having it? I know that it doesn't work on all the games, but I heard it is great for Missile Command and Centipede.
Anyways, thoughts?
