DeusExMachina

I'd say it cost you quite a bit of cash...I tend to stay away from auctions with private bidders. These types of auctions send up red flags to me. I almost got burned by a seller outside the US who used private bidders awhile back. It took suspicion, action, persistence, time and ultimately a police report to recover my money.

Collectors are attracted to the character of each item. Hoarders are attracted to the quantity of items. With that said, the number of R10 duplicates in my collection qualifies me for both!

Not sure Not sure what the funny part is...his price isn't too far off.... EBAY CTCW Complete in box for $559 EBAY CTCW Loose for $56.55

Around 20 cartridges. 3 verified boxes. 1 verified set of instructions.

For $1600, it's worth buying to stick in my trade box

Yeah...Shouldn't be too hard..

That one belongs to Wonder.

See #6 and #7 at the link below. http://atariage.com/...d/#entry2765273

There are three known authentic Air Raid boxes and one authentic set of instructions.

It could be #13 or #16, Wonder would need to verify which one it is.

1. The list posted above is outdated. Alot has changed since it was last updated. 2. Wonder doesn't own #13 anymore. 3. Wonder owns the only known CIB copy and that is not on the list. 4. Rick's cartridge and box are not on the list. 5. At least two cartridges that have been verified with pictures have surfaced. 6. The Air Raid on rareearthgames.com is not not the "missed" $350 Air Raid. The Air Raid on rareearthgames.com has been listed on that site for more than 6 months....long before the "missed" $350 Air Raid thread was even started. 7. In my opinion, the "missed" $350 Air Raid has not been verified or authenticated. The only photo that the owner could produce was a picture taken from the internet. The picture include cartridge #11 which belongs to me. #11 was placed in a custom wooden and glass box by the previous owner. If you hold the box in your hand, it is easy to see how to open it without breaking the glass. I don't doubt the the wife of the person who posted the thread saw what she believed to be an Air Raid. However, without photographic evidence, a very big question mark remains. Air Raid is not the only T-handle Atari 2600 cartridge. And let's not forget this one that was created with a piece of PVC pipe and paint...all it needed was a bit of blue...

I'm sure it is worth more than $1600..

Is yours #19. I've made a few changes too...I have to check my records...

Interesting story. The one pictured in the case is Air Raid #11 on the Air Raid Registry. The case was purchased from Hobby Lobby by HollowBeers before he sold it to me. What I still don't understand is why she didn't have a single picture of the cartridge.

He knows they are fake. I told him, but got no response.

No...I own that one.

No. I already own the other CIB Mr. Boston. I don't know who purchased this one.

It was $8900. No Vectrex collection is complete without one.

I have two Ben Heck creations...a 2600 handheld and an XBox 360 Laptop. His build quality is first class!

At first....everything seems normal...but then... eBay Auction -- Item Number: 290778158703

This cartridge needs no introduction. Red Sea Crossing

Yep, carving stone tablets can be tough...and you can't erase mistakes!

I guess we need to start the Red Sea Crossing Registry

After many requests, I have decided to finally start posting pictures of my collection. I will select an item from time to time and post it here. For starters, here is a Star Wars Revenge Of the Jedi Game I Box. Here is a Star Wars Revenge Of the Jedi Game II Box.

No. Never really got around to it. Maybe I will have to make one soon.
