My first thought is it's just a faded yellow lable.
Most likely. I'm just going to keep both, as they are a curiosity

Not trying to plug in particular site. Some of the other sites that I frequent are:

Thanx!! -
I have been and ever shall be an Atari addict, but sometimes I like to play those other systems too...
I have spent most of today reorg-ing my collection, and now I'm diving into the NES, SNES, Genesis, etc. Are there any other places like our little community here that cater to those systems with such detail? I'm about to wear myself out finding the info I want without having to go through a bunch of 'drill-down' sites, or on colloquial forums where the general mood is to laugh first and answer questions later when people ask about systems older than the average member.
-
I have to vote 'economy' on this one, too. I've been out of work for three months now and, though I have a job starting up in December, you still have to pay bills.
I have been limiting my sell-off to duplicates, as I have thinned the collection down to a few systems that I am still really rabid over (i.e. 2600, NES, SNES). I'm hanging onto my Jaguar, even though I only have one game for it. I really only bought it as a curiosity, but I haven't given up on finding carts in the wild.
Has anyone else come to hate eBay lately?

I just went over to the Mythbusters forum and suggested busting this Myth. I suggested Mike Rowe as a guest Mythbuster for that episode he would be a natural for tearing up a landfill.
Good show and good idea.
There's no real "science" involved, but they may get to blow stuff up.
Wasn't much science when they were looking for Hoffa. At least they would be searching for technology

I'd choose the older one. The newer ones just don't seem right to me. But to each their own.
See? Now THAT's the mentality that I have. Bullox to what the rairity guide says. I have kept some of my original carts rather than take ones with better-looking labels just because they have been with the group the longest. I collect to play, not just to view safely from the other side of a protective case!
Then it sounds like you've already made up your mind... generally, I feel the same way. I don't have a lot of interest in the newer variations, but will keep them if I get them. I want complete NTSC boxes for original releases, have zero interest in the late grey boxes, etc. Still, since you have them both, and neither is worth much (the torn label old one probably approaching valueless), I'd just keep them both. But then, I collect #, text, and pic variations, so...
Speaking of... I am still missing four of the original nine # carts. I need 12, 03, 11, and 61. Will trade

Here's one that may have been asked before, but I can't find reference to it...
I have a couple of Star Ship carts. They are both the large yellow text labels, but the end labels are different. One is yellow, one is white. At first, I thought it might just be faded, but normally you see some type of color left behind, or the black background would be sort of reddened. Both end labels have the same label ID number engraved in them.
Ideas?
-
True on both counts. Not only was I torn, but so is the end label on the older one.
Hey, keilbaca, Long time no hear!

Okay...

I'm torn. Which would you rather keep in your core collection?

Arguably, the slik stik was one of the sturdiest constructed sticks for the 2600 (from a concept standpoint, anyway). . . Has anyone else had any issues with theirs just deciding it didn't want to work anymore? I had one from the early days that decided it no longer wanted to go right. In the last few months, I've gotten my hands on five more that don't work in one or more directions. I've even tried to buff the contact points and ball with emory cloth. Is the universe against me, or have others suffered this?

What are the dimensions on an FII's case? I haven't been able to lay hands on one.
I do have some woody and vader cases that have no internal organs, right now. . .
-
hmm, considering the condition thoose, i'll think about it. You're right. I'm going to be adding more carts to the list this afternoon. I may bundle these with some others to make it worthwhile.

Commercial, shommercial. . . I remember that Christmas fondly.

I know this is a bit off the wall, but I stumbled across two Ford transponder keys that have never been cut. I don't have a Ford anymore, so they're useless to me. Both are Ilco # H72-PT. These will work for some Ford trucks and some mustangs, and there are other crossovers too. I figured I'd ask here before putting them on eBay. These retail for $25. I'll let them go for $11 each, including shipping.
Thanx!

I really like starship. Is there any way to get more then 59 points on game one? lol
Good Question... I'll let you know. . .

Shipping to that zip code (1st class) is $1.51. Call it two bucks, even for the works shipped

Yes, friends, using the poor economy and a changing work environment as an excuse to hit the 'career reset button' I have embarked on a multi-month vacation, of sorts. My new position begins two weeks into next month, but the mortgage still has to be paid, so I'm liquidating some of my usual standby ATARI stock.
None of these carts are remarkable (the only one above a 3 on the rairity guide is Pitfall II in one of the ebay auctions), but all are playable. Most are in excellent shape, while some have marginally plaquey to horrid labels. If you want to see individual pics, let me know. Questions, likewise. Prices on this list are negotiable, as I will give a break to people buying large quantities, and as most of you who have bought from me know, I do actual postage rates, and not that eBay 'I'm gonna make a massive profit on my shipping' crap. I will combine shipping, too.
Auctions are here
Lists are below the pics. Thanks!
prices marked do not include shipping
This is an eight-cart binder labeled with the Imagic-style font. Close inspection of the edge will reveal a small split on the crease. It still seems sound, but I wouldn't let the kids play with it

M-Network sucks monkeybutt for storage and the like... Plus, I do miss a good label.

As I've stated before on numerous occasions, Circus Atari is Frakking addictive!!! I actually never owned the game until a couple of years back when we got our hands on my wife's old collection of carts. I've been hooked ever since.
What the h-e-double-hockeysticks were they thinking of when Jakks Pacific put that game on a joystick controller?
-
It seems odd that all of the cart organizers were always eight slots when their initial offering of game carts was nine. . .
perhaps there intention was eight in the slots and one in the console? maybe they just couldn't fathom someone ever wanting to put all of their games and console away for awhile
Smeg. . . I never thought of that
