  1. $70 huh? I remember back when this was a $200 title CIB. Oh how times have changed.

     

    Actually times have not changed and if I was him I'd be asking at least $100 so anyone intrested might wanna jump

    on it cause I'm temped to just buy it and flip it.

     

    I don't know about flipping it but with a Buy It Now, you might make it work. I recently got one off ebay on auction for $44 plus ship and the box looks a bit better than this one. I think I got lucky though, $70 seems like a good deal and if I didn't already have it, I'd probably jump on it.

    If you have any other CIB Absolute titles or a CIB Rampage for sale, let me know!


  2. I'm sure you had to really search those out, you said those games went for that "on a regular basis". I just looked at the last five that sold. I'm sure the lot was a good deal and I know how much Bubble Bobble 2 is worth but it's simply not true that the other games are sold for those prices on a regular basis.

     

    The guy is obviously gonna keep fighting any rational logic with his $15 Zelda carts so best just let him have his fantasy cause the guy won't give up. A fool always fights logic

    cause otherwise they would have to admit they are wrong.

     

    Yeah man, I gave up. To think that the games bring those prices on a regular basis is ridiculous. Sure, there are exceptions to the rule and if you search highest price first on ebay, I'm sure you could find those prices easily. It's all good, to each his own.


  3. He's a good guy and good seller.

     

    Oh yeah man, I'm sure he is. I was just really surprised by how many cool games he has for sale and how many Video Jogger and Video Reflex carts he's sold. Also, he must have found a couple cases of Meteorites somewhere and slowly been selling them off....smart! The 7800 games are what initially caught my eye as I am in need of a box for Summer Games.

     

    Amazing stuff in the seller's feedback! :thumbsup:


  4. Hey all, I was looking at some 7800 games that I'm interested in and came across a seller who has had a ton of sealed Meteorites for the 5200 and also a bunch of cart only Video Jogger's and Video Reflex's. The seller also has a bunch of sealed games for other systems besides Atari. I wonder where someone would get these diverse items and how one person could have had so many Video Jogger and Video Reflex carts? Seriously, I looked at the 10 pages of feedback they have and couldn't believe how many they've sold. Also, they have had some great 2600 items that they've sold...some sold to Wonder.

     

    Anyway, I just thought this was an interesting seller and wanted to share. I don't know who it is and have no affiliation with them so I don't want to come across as advertising for a friend or something. Take a look and also check the feedback for what they've sold. Heck, maybe it's someone here and I just don't know it.

  5. $4 to ship one cart. :roll:

     

    I quoted someone on a game shipped first-class yesterday and it came out to being a little over $4 after the delivery confirmation was added (looks like the prices have gone up already, normally it's only $2-something). That's not counting packing materials, plus for this seller, apparent eBay fees for shipping charges. Their price sounds about right.

     

    I just shipped a 7800 cart to someone here at AA in a box with delivery confirmation and it was $2.43. It would have been even lower if I would have shipped it bubble wrapped and in an envelope.


  6. Actually, I was the winner of the one for $40 and it just arrived in the mail today. I tested it and it's 100% NTSC so that's good. The label is in pretty nice shape so I'm happy with the purchase. I was just wondering if you guys thought it was too much or about right. I've been wanting Obelix for quite a while but they don't show up on ebay very often, like you said. And, I know that you have to be careful about who you are buying it from and if they clearly state that it's NTSC or PAL.

     

    The gameplay isn't the greatest but it's a nice addition to the "rare" part of my 2600 collection.

  7. See, I'd rather wait and see how it's going to be used before deciding that I like/hate it. There are a lot of possibilities with that controller and I'll admit I can't imagine them all at the moment.

    I'm mildly excited for the system. Probably won't be standing in line outside a store at 4am like I did for the Wii, but I can't imagine skipping out on a Nintendo system altogether.

     

    LOL, I agree, I was in line for 18 hours for the Wii on launch day. I'd also like to wait and see about it before deciding if it's something for me, I'm just not super excited from what I've seen/heard so far. The price will also have something to do with my decision.

     

    With four TV's and two Wii's in the house, I don't have the problem of someone wanting to watch TV while playing the Wii.
