[What's the latest Atari related thing(s) you've bought on ebay?]

Last item was

With my eBay bucks

 

Centipede cxl 4020 silver label version.

[Fake prototypes and fleaBay]

Same person that sold the 600$+ Santana hallow repro Albert did

[Prototype or b/s?]

Looks like a sears arcade II. A pacman without label since no lab loaner label ( would give it credibility ). The pilot thing is the only think I don't know what it is but there's enough everything else to question if its a real proto item.

[Adventure II for Atari 8-Bit Computers?]

I can't wait to order this game. Cafeman you do good work I can't wait till I can preorder this title

[FS/FT Atari 800XL]

I will have a few games available but I haven't priced them out yet. If say pm me and I'm sure we can work something out. Let me know what you are thinking.

[Did some basement digging for my old systems and came up with these.]

Bill I stand corrected then. I thought the 400 ( like the 5200) went through a period of time where there was a 2 port and a 4 port version. I know the 800 was a 4 port but wasnt sure with the 400. I was almost positive they had both kinds. Thank you for clearing that up for me

[Did some basement digging for my old systems and came up with these.]

ALso I would look at ebay to see what completed auctions have yeilded

[Did some basement digging for my old systems and came up with these.]

What games are with that system? I would feel comfortable thinking $25 to 30 on a loose 400. depending if its a 2 port or 4 port. But if the games are better titles than pacman and defender it might be worth the 55.00

[FS/FT Atari 800XL]

Can do 60.00

 

[FS/FT Atari 800XL]

Also available is a 2600 console and a 5200 console available, No set price on them but open to offers or trades.

[Did some basement digging for my old systems and came up with these.]

I will have to find a copy of that and try it out on the 400.

[1200XL Owners Club (serial tracker)]

83S DA 023636 (365 in hand writing)

[Did some basement digging for my old systems and came up with these.]

Ive got mine listed for 65.00 + shipping. I did that on another board last time i had a spare and it flew. Ebay gets alot of crazy bidders at times. I try to make a little while finding homes for my spares. If i got a ST i really dont know what I would do with it. Craigslist had a ST complete boxed with monitor for 50.00 but was a local pick up outta my area. A deal like that might be the only way id consider buying one. 8 Bit computers are just easier for me to handle move use and enjoy, I think anything with a cartridge is worth a look.

 

my 5200 is a console only and i dont recall if it works. I bought and kept a good quality control on what i bought years ago and this being the last of the extras / non 8 bit I have to think it would work with the proper stuff for it.

[Did some basement digging for my old systems and came up with these.]

The 8 bit series was both a computer and a PC ( Well they could dial up modem, print documents, be a word processor with AtariWriter. Have cart programs that do designs and art. Disk drives to save your work. And you can play games on cartridges, 5.25 floppy disks, or you can use the keyboard to type line by line programs. In a way it was the first cartridge PC. I personally like this area of Atari, cause its less followed and holds more interest in my eyes.

[Did some basement digging for my old systems and came up with these.]

I dont have any ST systems ( not sure if i want to do since its not a cartridge type system ) But the Atari PC sounds interesting to play with

[Did some basement digging for my old systems and came up with these.]

XEGS is more available I see than the 1200. I missed out on a 130XE but i hope to land another one cheap. The 65XE 130XE and XEGS all use the same power adapter from what ive been reading. Which is a good thing.

 

The 65XE is a nice compact system compared to the others. I can see why however why they changed the XEGS to a detachable keyboard to make it more mobile.

 

I Need to find a nice 800, 130XE and a 600XL and ill be good.

[Did some basement digging for my old systems and came up with these.]

The 1200XL and XEGS are probably the hardest systems to find. 800XE is another hard to get system in the states as I think it was available over seas in europe.

[Did some basement digging for my old systems and came up with these.]

Yes in deed. From 1979 to 1987

[Did some basement digging for my old systems and came up with these.]

I knew i packed some atari systems in the basement and with the new 8 bit website Im building I went and dug these out . Along with these I found an atari 2600 and 5200 console onlys. Those Ill be tossing up on ebay since they are just consoles but I figure this was a nice rediscovery.
