  1. Bought an Atari 810 off ebay. Arrived broken, they just used wadded paper as padding. 2nd drive in a row arrived smashed.

      I remember once I bought a nice Garrard DD75 turntable and the shipper just put it a box, upside down, and was nice & busted when I got it.

      a Sears H6'r? Nah… lol

       

      Who knows, maybe the value will go up on 'em once Sears finally does themselves in soon.

      It'd be a crime Not to!

  3. I plugged in what I thought was a Controller Extension cable and it must have shorted out my Sears Heavy sixer... I thought it might be the system I plugged in another 2600 and it worked until I plugged that controller cable back in. I unplugged it and it worked normally. I hope the Sears still works!!!!!! It smelled like something may have fried.

      Makes me wonder if it was a null modem cable.

  4. I just bought a Colecovision, but it acts like the joystick is stuck to the left. Even when there isn't one plugged in? Anyone advise before I make a forum post somewhere?

      AS-IS on Ebay means they tested it and know it doesn't work properly. I am surprised they sold it with a power supply. Usually they leave that out so they can claim that they couldn't test it.

      The Atari and 99/4A cables both use DIN-5 connectors, but the pinouts are different.

      This post:http://atariage.com/forums/topic/109166-ti-994a-video-cable/#entry2756636 claims the Atari cable works.

  6. Bought some Atari 8 bit computers. I hope they're worth it.

      I've always been a fan of the 800, started on the 800, and naturally for the longest time everyone swore by the XL and XE models. There are a lot of games there. So I think you'll have fun.

      Yeah I got 2 800XL and a 130 XE in boxes with a 1050 and other stuff. Hasn't arrived yet. Now I need a SIO2PC

      I have been very elusive, reclusive, and protrusive since the "like" system was implemented into this site. I guess I realized nobody liked me after all.

      The "likes" system (formerly known as "rep points") weren't a part of the site ten years ago.

       

      (I'm coming up on my tenth anniversary also, next July.)
