They will only do 10k. Going to have to do one paypal and most likely a cashier check or something. I am going to post a running account of everything on here. Invoice sent date, payment sent, payment deposited etc I figured the more light I shine on the process, the more secure everyone will feel and cut down on any issues.

People are getting drunk and thinking their 2600s are worth a ton... eBay Auction -- Item Number: 260581266234

I have gotten three people today who have bid then retracted their bids stating "Wrong amount entered". Now I have the current leader asking if he can cancel also. This after he has had the highest bid for over two days. I have no doubt that these people are children just trying to get there name attached to the auction. Each bidder that does this is getting banned from the auction and being reported to eBay. They have had no effect on the price because their bids have not run up someone else auto bids. I figured this was going to happen with all the attention it is getting.

2000 watching that was a fast hundred. A major news site must have picked up the auction.

1900 watcher 45000 views wow!

Cool thanks!!!

Y'all mentioned box protectors. Got a link?

Something I am looking for. Anyone have a link to two way switcher? I am tired of unplugging and replugging my 2600 and 800. Would rather just push a button to switch between the two. Even better if there was box that cold do 3,4,5 etc.. I just purchased a inexpensive Intellivision. That would make three....

Other then missing the color select switch, how does the rest of the system look? Does it come with controllers, AC adapter or any games? I think $30.00 is an ok price and if it comes with controllers and AC adapter, it's really worth it. one controler, all adapters, and confirmed it works.

I found a place that has a heavy six for sale for $30. The Black and white switch is missing. $30 a good price?

Some of my game boxes are kinda mangled around where they were opened. Mainly the tab sots are torn etc. Is there any acceptable fixes that can be done, tape, glue etc? Or is it better just to keep them as is?

This thread has been highjacked by nerds!!! hehe just kidding

Thank you for the nice message! Tanner

Yeah... Put me down at 85% sure I will be there.

If you want to do a weekend in Vegas you should go the last weekend of July! That's the Classic Gaming Expo and a lot of us AA people will be there! You could have a chance to meet the buyer of your auction (if it's who we hope it is) and expand your collection and just meet a lot of us folks! That would be awesome! Have a celebratory beer with us for the first boxed Air Raid! The way this thing is going I don't see how I could not go... What's the link to the Expo info?

Right now it is going to be used for something between new double pane windows for the house to a weekend in Vegas tht would rival the movie "The Hangover". I'll let everyone know when I decide. HAHAHA

You can read all about the "loan command center" and how to protect it by holding the joystick in a special yogo stance and pressing the fire button with your big toe by reviewing the back of the box. HAHA

Several options I was thinking about: 1) Multiple PayPal transactions. 2) One PayPal for $10k and the rest in cashiers check/money order. 3) All in cashiers check/money order. Of course I will wait for everything to clear before mailing anything out. I would get something in writing from the bank saying everyting is cleared with no chance of charge back. Just want to see what eBay recommends.

I have started to get some very low feeback score bidders. I added a note saying anyone under 10 score will have their bid cancelled and they can reach out to me and I will handle it on a case by case basis. I figured with all the increased attention, the auction will be attracting people who just want to run up the price for the fun of it.

nice! I hope who ever bid it up to that actually pays for it.Tanman should cancel any ZERO bidders. I have some bidder filters in place.

ATARIAGE ROCK STAR!!!! Albert is... He is getting all the quotes. Has the site had an uptick in new members over the past few days?

Whoever wrote the instructions was on crack. You hold the control just like any other games. Maybe the "loan command center" is wired differently...

I want that poster the letter talks about!!!
