Very nice those are some great looking boxes that take forever to get. I’m just now completing my Sega after years of collecting. Even after the “Big game up n down” some of those other boxes are still tough gets, especially nowadays. Congrats! On joining the very small club

I have seen cart and manual go for around $49 , the money 💰 is in the box. Although the cart and manual seems to be slowly creeping up.

You now have the ability to complete your boxed 2600 Sega titles if you wish with time. Unfortunately not many collectors will ever accomplish it. There may be only 10 to 30 range of up n down boxes in existence . You’re getting some really rare stuff with your Xante carts too.

I didn’t realize it was Tony that went to war congrats on the box. I didn’t see it until the last day of auction. That box has sold for 1200 something in the past so it’s not surprising. And there wasn’t no gouging I believe this started at a dollar although selling to another longtime collector is probably the better route.

*** Note 📝 for racketboy or anyone else that’s curious a boxed Atari 2600 up n down without manual sold on eBay for $1525 a few days ago which I believe is a record for the title. now more Interesting Atari stuff.

Just to clarify I have not seen 10 cib 2600 up n downs on ebay...only 4 or 5 over years. The other 5 or so we're already in collector hands here at atariage long ago.

Retro gaming stuff is drying up out there. Rarity is also becoming clearer. I have watched boxed 2600 up n downs for years both here and on ebay and only know of around 10 cib. In my opinion the box is rarer than a boxed ntsc stadium events but don't tell that to them lol. Loose carts are slowing down out there too. Maybe a 1:60 loose carts / box ratio which is high but I guess for some unknown reason up n down kids on different systems liked to trash that box lol. So maybe between 10 and 35 accounting for future finds and years of watching the title. I don't follow boxed coleco up n downs any speculation on this title?

Cib up n down for the coleco vision. Probably just as rare as the boxed 2600 version?

Quit calling out my auction you sobs.

More games and utilities from the 70s 80s

Pengo pal or pal pengo

4 more A8 games and one beast.

I should have stayed at the Hyatt in Milwaukee attached. I never made the convention but I would have easily recognized your setup in the museum.

Raining atari

So the devil went down to Georgia looking for a soul to steal.

Activision is a very doable set right now but will probably get much harder later on. I'm missing double dragon too along with beamrider, decathlon and maybe another one can't remember. If you collect alot of 2600 boxed games it's amazing seeing the variation in colors on the shelf.

More Atari Heading out this week to Midwest gaming or bust, maybe I can still turnover galaga.

The seller will be making out better than eBay $94 claim plus my $35 damage offer that I sent to her PayPal.

I kept the box and took pictures before I opened it and sent them to the seller to file a claim. I'm basically out of the loop unless they contact me and want to see the box.

So what did you buy from this seller? Some prices set records. Seller had no choice but to send mine boxed and USPS put a big hole in the box. Seller filed a claim against USPS and I get a letter that they may require me to take it in to my local branch for verification lol but nothing happened. USPS criminals always try to defer blame.
