    Did you see his conversations with me, I'm trolling him on ebay by listing a real copy and directing people here, so he claimed I spilled coffee on the label to make my "obviously fake" copy look old, 

     

    I must say that PayPal Credit makes yours semi-affordable. ;) If I didn't just buy a Pink Panther cart (That I hope is legit :P ) I might pull the trigger on this. Ok, not really.

    Anyone interested in Brazilian CCE/Polyvox and other Brazilian brands of atari 2600 games? Saw a couple carts on ebay but they seem a bit off priced.

     

    I have a few. What ones do you have?

     

    —-

     

    Never mind. I just saw your post on FB. I thought you had just the regular silver label Polyvox. I totally overlooked the CCE.

    More legit than this one that was posted this week. The sun is in my eyes if you know what I am sayin'. :P

    Well I paid between $200 - $300 for mine in a “auction” here in the forums last October to someone who was getting out of the hobby. There are some buyers out there with very deep pockets dropping $1500 for Up N Down in box WITHOUT a manual. I could see this one hitting $300 if one of those 2 heavy hitters are going for it.

    You now have the ability to complete your boxed 2600 Sega titles if you wish with time. Unfortunately not many collectors will ever accomplish it. There may be only 10 to 30 range of up n down boxes in existence . You’re getting some really rare stuff with your Xante  carts too.      

    I am one of those few who has completed it. ;)

     

    And yes the Up 'N Down is complete.

     

    @stupus and I have become the best of friends since I posted that I found that Up 'N Down at a local antique mall in December of 2017. I paid $50 for it.

    This is a really dumb thought... but is there a chance you could just dump it with a Retron77?  Would that work?  I mean, you could either keep it, return it, or whatever...


    No. The Retron 77 doesn’t actually save ROMs from carts. It loads then in to the emulator to play and then they are gone when it is powered off. Also the special hardware or additional chip(s) that is game uses probably won’t even play on a Retron. If this thing ends up getting dumped Stella is gonna need an update to even play it.

    I only have a cheap repro the came from Etsy. But I can tell you that the one in your pics is likely totally legit, or someone put a lot of extra work in that for a repor. The box insert and the printers marking in that bottom pic sell it as legit to me. But someone else who has one can probably officially confirm it.

    I have a plugin on Chrome and I click it every time I go to pay for an ebay item and it sets up the "Shopping Trip". It only works on desktop only unfortunately. I have missed out on a few Rakuten dollars with a couple of last minute BINs that I did on mobile because I didn't want to miss an item. But I always try to pay for ebay while on my desktop or laptop to capture those Rakuten dollars.  

     

    If anyone isn't on Rakuten (used to be Ebates) You are missing out on extra cash when shopping online. My lifetime payout so far over 2.5 years is $168.00 

    Send me a PM I can send you a referral link that will get you a $10 credit just for signing up. ;)

    My ebay Bucks is a weak $9.27 this time.

    But my upcoming "Big Fat Check" from Rakuten is gonna be solid. It's around $58 right now and I think most of it is ebay hits at 2% each. So I am kinda "double dipping" on ebay.

    Tank Command is gonna be a challenge and is a wallet buster unless you can find one some place where they don't know what they have. 

     

    I am glad I knocked mine out last year for more than half of that. 

     

    I just got a notification that the Scrapyard Dog that I got in a trade with @CaptainBreakout was just delivered to my UPS box. So my CIB 7800 Collection if officially complete. 

     

    Good Luck on Tank Command. I know where two overpriced CIB Water Skis are, but I can't help you with TC.

    Also I was gonna send this via PM, but might as well post it for all to see. I was probably unclear in my last comment on the stream today. Since you earned the Keystone Kapers patch today even if it's a virtual patch I said I would get you a patch letter. So here is your Digital Patch letter for your Keystone Kapers accomplishment. Enjoy!

    Thanks, it's great to be back streaming and playing all the new great homebrew games again.

     

    It was really interesting seeing how many people let me know that ZeroPage is the only livestream that they watch, it's an honour!

    Add me to that this. ZPHB is the only reason I have a Twitch account. And for that same reason you also get my Prime Support.

    No worries Bob. It's not the end of the world. Don't hate yourself. You are human like all of us. None of us are perfect. Other than you are at creating amazing 7800 games!

    When I got mine and it wouldn't load and opened it up to test just the PCB I noticed my eprom window was not covered so stuck a label on it before putting it back together. 

     

    I wonder if the label adhesion problems are a combination of old adhesive that doesn't adhere to the filament material?

    Re:Notifications - To clarify - Haven't got any Atari Age notifications from Tapatalk since the switch which makes sense if you don't have the plugin loaded for Tapatalk.

    Re:Threads - Again, I think because you don't have the Tapatalk plugin loaded Tapatalk isn't loading anything from AA. I can see the main threads that I am following in Tapatalk but it is not loading any posts from those followed threads. 

     

    I will have rely on Gmail notifications and I have been getting those, and before the upgrade I would get mobile Tapatalk and emails, so I will have one less distracting notification for everyone that is sent. ;) 

     

    Thanks for the info. So far I love the upgrade. Lots of fun new things and improvements of other things. 

     

  24. Posted

    I am guessing that this upgrade isn't compatible with Tapatalk? 

     

    I don't get notifications and can't get any threads to load. 

     

    So Chrome for iOS it is. But I think that screws me over for mobile notifications.

    I do not, most of my list is compiled by having played the game before or seen it and thought it was appealing, so stuff like that can surprise me. Does that one tend to be expensive? Also, apologize for posting in the wrong section. If a mod can delete this I will make the same topic in the correct area. Been awhile and I deal on a lot of places so it can be jarring.

     

    Here is the CIB for Mogul Maniac. In this condition and completeness you are easily looking at $150+. And they don't come up complete very often.
