Craziest day! My 85 year old aunt found my original Atari VCS BOX! (Which I believe I bought in 1979 or 1980). Not the console (Which my cousin pawned or lost in a storage shed before he died we're pretty sure), but the box itself, which was under an inch of dust in her downstairs closet. I can confirm I bought it at Grand Central for $129.99 on sale from $159.99 cuz the price tags are still there! The box shows a Heavy Sixer but I'm pretty sure mine was a Light Sixer. I thought all of it was lost,...Never thought I'd see this again! Inside is some NES game boxes; All of it is dusty as hell!

  FWIW, pretty sure I sold her my Atari for $25 when I got the Coleco Expansion # 1, My Mom really wanted me to do this....To this day, It's the only console from the very old days I sold and I wish I still had it! (I kept everything from the ColecoVision onwards except for some much later buys and sells)...

  Although I am glad she got to play it BITD, as now she says she has an XBOX, and a PS3, but doesn't play them, as her hands don't work like they used to, and she says, "I'm tired of losing to my machine!" LOL
