tnks CPU, I was just coming in here to list that fact .. yupper, money tight again this week,, but its all good.. I plan on wheeling and dealing atari for many years ahead yet and Im sure I can replace these down the road,, -
thats a real common prob,, just for your info.. all four switches are the same and interchancable..

after reading adams reply.. my god.. I hope noone ever buys from this rip off again,, hes getting all shitty thinking the buyer is going to back out.. all the buyer has to do is report the auction to ebay,, they dont even allow prototypes of anykind anyway! so that auction would be voided once turned into ebay,, I hope the seller or maybe even someone else in here turns the auciton's in and lets ebay know of this guys scams.. that cart WAS NOT PRODUCED IN '88 OR '90,, what a (insert favorite demeaning word/words here)! Its people like this that ruin ebay.. I hope he has the balls to coment on this forum and try to tell us how right he is in this ATTENTION AUCTION WINNER:!! REPORT THIS AUCTION TO EBAY!! REFUSE TO PAY!! HIS AD IS MISLEADING AND EVEN ILLEGAL BOTH ON EBAY AND UNDER U.S. TRADE LAWS!! I ususally try to keep my opinion's to my self anymore to avoid trouble.. but this adam is too much.. just that reply he gave.. "...then were going to have a problem!'... its like.. 'I ripped you off with my misleading ad and you better pay or we got a problem"

I've had one good deal with topol777 and one lousy deal, I don't bid on his shit anymore ;(
-
Ill have to look, its that same one you looked at when I bought this like 8 months ago.. you said it was a final version so you weren't interested in it It doesnt have the lab loner label on it, just a text small label that says 'Millipede"
-
I have REAL Millipede prototype if anyone wants to buy it, first $125 and its yours;) I can post picks of it if you want..
-
I know this guy,, I buy his 'seconds' all the time.. his 'seconds' are nice'r than most peopls machines! All the ones he sells for this top buck are unrestored, mint pieces.. no repainted bessels.. no polished switches.. no armour all.. just clean units.. he searches all over for em and specialises in just the first year stuff. His stuff is worth the bigger bucks for people who just want a atari for collecting purposes. Not what we would pay for one.. but deffinetly valued at the price he sells em for,, he selles on average 2-4 of these each month..
-
just curious,, did you test it? about 85% of these have bad buttons on em right out of the box.. and this number gets higher every year;)
-
were do you live????

LOL "No Longer A Registered User" good work;)

The games ranged from decent to poor shape,, not restored units, all the games have beeen in use from the day they were new;) so that was neat to see.. all original setup.. no mame's at all of course nor were any of the games 'conversions'.. very neat.. as for the night driver.. it was MINT even for gel coated fiberglass.. no wear anywear.. They did not have dragrace, however, I picked one up last month;) and cant wait to get it going
-
no dragrace, one robotron

Hi folks.. I just got back from Cedar Point wich is a amuzment park in Sandusky OH,, very big place.. known for having more coasters than any other park in america,, The have a old arcade ther, I had remember seeing it when I was ther 15 years ago and was hopeful that many of the old machines would still be ther. Sure enough.. many, many of the old games were ther,, now remember, these are all in 'every day public use' and are not restored units.. here is some of what I can remember seeing 3 Mrs Pacmans, 1 Pacman 2 Cockpit Turbos' 1 GUN FIGHT 2 Gorf's 1 COCKPIT Night Driver, wasnt working at the time but was unrealistically clean! 3 Space Invaders 1 Star Castle (wasn't working,, DAMN, ate my quarter) 2 Wizards of Wor 2 Bezerks 2 Defenders (one not up) 1 Hurcules PInball (the big pinball) 1 Battlezone (down at the time) 1 Red Barron Cockpit 1 Submarine (RARE_) Im sure there are several I am forgeting about.. it was really kewl to see all these games still in use just as they were 20 odd years ago.. very neat:)

The cheap shipping should of been a give-away,, you should of offerd to pay $5 for shipping and request priority.. would of obviously been worth it play by the sword, die by...... -
that is way too much for that game in that condition, Ive seen these sell in very good working order and near mint cosmetics for under $500, not to pick on ya, but thats way too hi of a reseve
-
pretty damn good graphics for the day wouldn't you say??
-
man this sh*t is way too addictive.. I bought my first arcade about 5 months ago,, here is what I now have.. several are awaiting restoration,, but thats right up my alley;) Jungle King cocktail Jungle Hunt Pengo Super PacMan Crazy Climber cocktail Double Dragon Deluxe Space Invaders Turbo Turbo cabera Pole Position Pole Position 2 Zaxxon cocktail (tnks pitbull;) Mr. Do Popeye Speedbuggie Grand Champion Aqua Jack Rockola Eyes Trivial Pursuit cocktail Sprint Solar Warrior Pit and Run S.P.Y and about 5 other pacman/galiga cabs that I plan on restoring with a 9in1 board;) (I'll keep one, sell the others) about a third of the games above are non working as of now but they will all deffinetly be 'up' by next spring;)
-
actually, that RF switch is really nice quality,, its heavier than the original atari unit, better shielded with a nicer quality switch (hard to believe it came from Radio Hack) much better unit than those cheap ass one's from asia you see all the time for sale on ebay
-
I wouldn't call that a side deal,, like you clearly stated, you didn't want all of em, and you ask for it to be listed seperatly.. no prob with that in my eyes.. honorable sale.. good for you

I picked up a couple of games (Pengo and Jungle Hunt) at a place called Apollo Amusement. While I was ther I was sooo empted to buy a Crystal Castle they had. This machine was unrestored and looked almost new,, unreal how nice it was. ALL the artwork, control panel overlay and marque were flawless. The trackball still lit up and worked like new,, everything was honestly like new the ONLY flaw was were the vinal underneath the maque bent around the courner had some dry cracks in it.. but all the color on all the artwork was viberant.. it honestly looked like it was just restored but it was all original, they wanted $500 for it, a tad higher than what you might getone for, but this thing was honestly worth every penny, If i'd of had the extra $, I'd of deff took it.. I fig'd I'd let you all know if anyone else wants it;) Its in Rockford IL
-
lol.. ya, rust would deffinetly short a rom out.. ZAP
-
if you are really worried and want a little 'insurance', ask him to send a International Money Order.. this will cover everything..
