What do you think is fair?

So without having pics, let's say it's a 1980 light sixer in like new condition in it's original but open box. I can likely get it for about $200CDN/$145US. Would you buy it if you were looking for an Atari??

That one is used, being sold as is, and has no quarantee it works. The one I'm interested in is suppose to be like new in an opened box. The Ebay one also has $30 in shipping. So if no one bids it would be $130US. But I'm in Canada so it becomes $180CDN plus I have to pay taxes at the border so I'd be at about $200CDN which is how much the one is I'm looking at locally.

We were talking $200 but he thought it was an original 2600 from 77 which it isn't. I got him to verify it doesn't have the chess piece on the box. I asked him if it said Sunnyvale or Hong Kong and he said it says Toronto. Did Atari's distributed in Canada get a differnt box?

lol I know how to post pics. The problem is that the seller hasn't sent me any yet. He lives in the next city over from me. I was suppose to go look at it tomorrow but I'd like a ball park for value so I don't have to drive there twice. Thanks.

I know, I've been trying to get some pics but he's not exactly great with technology. What would an original like new 6 switcher complete in the open box be worth even if it's from 1978-81? I'm just looking for a fair price for both of us. My original console is an Atari - Wong Inc. with serial #568403608. So I'm guessing mine is a light sixer?? Thanks.

Anyone have any advice???

Hi Everyone I'm new to the site but a long time Atari enthusiast. I still have my original Atari but it's been well used. I had a friend offer me a complete in the original box 2600 with the cardboard inserts, etc. It is basically new but the box has been opened. I've been reading to try and figure out which version it is. My friend is in another city and doesn't know much about it. He says it doesn't have the chess piece below ST. I asked if it said California or Hong Kong on the box and he said it has Toronto?? I can't find any info on boxes with Toronto on it. Can anyone tell me about this box and what version of 2600 it should be? It's definiately a six switch. What would be a rough idea of value? I was thinking $200 but I don't know the market. Thanks for any info or advice.
