  1. Hi all,

     

    RE: This one on ebay:

     

    "...rare Atari VCS/2600 QUADRUN prototype game + pcb!..."

    eBay Auction -- Item Number: 2712364754341?ff3=2&pub=5574883395&toolid=10001&campid=5336500554&customid=&item=271236475434&mpt=[CACHEBUSTER]

     

    Curious.... how you would be able to tell a prototype board from others? Sorry for the newbie-ness of my post. Looking at AtariProtos does not seem to help me out. Love the concept of adding prototypes to my collection, but my knowledge is minimal. Could this be a board ripped out of a Best Electronics case?

     

    Thanks all,

    -Jeff

  2. There was a guy in San Jose who had a load of protos and a huge box full of these up on ebay, I am betting that's where Iwan got them from. ;)

     

    I bought several of them from that guy... and love em .. yes, the fact that you know real atari peeps from back in the day were using them is why I love them.

  3. No offense please, I'm sorry, but that table is just butt ugly!

     

    Different strokes for different folks! :D I love it but I'm biased because I made it. :lol:

     

    Also I take it you will not be wanting to trade me for one?? :lol:

     

    haha, no thanks!

     

    however, I envy the time you have to make the thing... I wish I had time just to play around with my Harmony cart! damn you sands of time!

  4. Seems like the thread acts like the list now.

     

    What would be nice is a php form where one could select the model of the console, the origin, and post said serial, with pictures, maybe, as a form of master database. That would be cool.

     

    Good idea! I could whip that app out in no time. I will do up a prototype UI, ask for feedback, refine, and so on. I'll post a new thread with link when done.

    I've already got this done and just need to fine tune it a bit, then pass it over to Al... long live the heavy sixer list :)

     

    Ready... set... go!

  6. What's going on with Google Checkout these days? Are they still a option?

     

    Yes, I have used Google Checkout with success. I actually like it better than PayPal. Limited to USA and UK only I believe... but it's been a few months since I last looked.

     

    Sold something on Chuckwagon with Google Checkout (side bar-- boy, CtCW/GameGavel has become a let down for 2600 eh?). Also have bought a few things from online sellers directly using Google Checkout with zero problems...

     

    Let down?

     

    yeah, pretty much...

  8. I always go through credit card companies when PayPal fails in that way. What are they going to do, close your PayPal account? LOL

     

    +1 -- I have done that too and my credit union was happy to help reverse the pay pal charge. They even said they'd work with the police if need be.

     

    Use a shill bank account with $10 or less in it for your linked Pay Pal account and only fund when necessary.

     

    Pay pal can suck it.

  9. This guy is awesome! I love it... it's almost like he's saying.... f*ck eBay and those rules and sh*t... they never read this crap anyway, so who cares! love love love this person.

     

    "...On Jan-19-10 at 16:13:46 PST, seller added the following information:

    In response to this hilarious person who sent a silly comment on my swordquest waterworld auction (check it out, its hilarious) I am gonna make this little addition and just say they ARE fake! You caught me! Oh gosh darn it. Shucks! I guess everybody should retract their bids now because everything I am selling is fake except the comics. haha. I personally dont care if they sell anyway, because like I said before, its people like him that make ebay a pain. After these auctions I WILL pay my fees and CLOSE my account. Tired of it. ..."

     

    yeah wow..... what an ebay anarchist... :|

     

    sounds like a dumbass to me...

     

    some of you guys are way too serious me thinks...
