KLAX I would really like to get in the future: Peter Packrat Lunar Lander Black Widow Asteroids Deluxe PCB Mad Planets

I would be willing to trade classic game/systems or buy outright an xbox360 system. This may be a longshot but if anyone is looking to sell one, please let me know. _Matt

I would be willing to shop around until around 7pm that night. We are actually contemplating about have a video game texas holdem cartridge tournament directly after the show where the buy in is a nes super mario bros. 3 cart or a nes mike tyson's punch out cart and the winner takes all the games. It's mainly for fun and we are tying to make it be a $5-$10 cartridge but may not limit it to just that if the majority has an idea that makes more sense. If anyone is interested please let me know with a PM.

Good luck finding a complete crystal castles. It took me 4 years of looking for one and the box was beat up. I think the rest of them could be bought for $5-$10 each.

Nope, it's looks like a regular eprom soldered to the board. I dont think that the star voyager chip is an eprom. The chip on the back of demon attack is probably a 7404 Hex inverter, like the ones used on 4K pixels past PCBs. My best guess is that the chip on the star voyager is just like a regular chip used on production games, but I have never seen one like that on a cartrige. I have one just like that gold type chip but it was in an Omega Race CBS cart. Strange.

I vote for Rick Weiss. I tend to vote for those still actively collecting combined with the current state of their collection. I also think that people should focus on the word "collecting". People that don't collect atari games shouldn't be considered.

Last year I sold a TOM for $4,000 that was very close to a 10 out of 10 overall. I have another one on location that is just a little more worn (a solid 9 on condition) and we were asking $3,500 for that one. Both machines were (are) shopped and 100% working. It's sounds like an ok deal to me but in all honestly, we paid $2200 for one of those machines and $1800 for the other 2 years ago. The average sale price for a TOM these days is probably around $2600. One just sold on ebay for $2675 but then you have to pay shipping so that machine probably cost the buyer $3000 all said and done.

I'll be there with tons of wares for sale.

I live in Ciny, helped organize the last Cinciclassic and would be down to go to any kind of collector meetup in the Columbus area. I work on the weekends in Dayton and drive through Columbus 2 or 3 times a year. And I have no idea if there will be a cinciclassic 08. I will be attending CCAG in May if they finalize the location.

Rare enough to mention here. BTW: is this one yours, Wonder? http://www.atarimania.com/zoom_frame.php?T...amp;NUM_IMAGE=0 No, that one is not mine. I do have one that says "Demons EPROM Cartridge"....not sure if is the same one. That Demon Attack cart looks nice, especially if the game is the Imagic version. @Romhunter, I WONDER if the cart you are showing me is really a Demons to Diamonds cart. I admit that demon attack cart/picture posted in this thread is mine. My dream is to get rob fulop to autograph it though. Truth be told, I bought it on ebay.

I have an Indiana Jones, 2 High Speeds, and a Swords of Fury, all Williams machines. I am currently looking fir a Lightning. I prefer mid 80's Williams machines because that's what I played when I was a kid. In all honesty, I think Solid State machines are the only way to go if it is your first pinball machine. My advice is to get one that works with a good playfield that isn't worn but needs cleaned real bad or just needs some other cosmetic things that will not affect gameplay. That way, you should be able to figure out if you love pinball without spending a fortune. If ever you need parts resources, please be careful or contact me because there are some sites on the net that charge a premium for parts they buy from other sources that are cheaper. The cheapest/best place for the most common parts is probably Pinball Life. Terry is a great guy. I've talked to him over the phone quite a bit, just a down to earth guy you could go up to and start chatting with anywhere.

Thats very strange because I have a Ballblazer prototype for the Atari 7800 that uses that exact same PCB. Is what you say true about Commando being the only cart like this?

This thread really puts things into perspective for me. I mean, are some Atari 2600 games really worth hounding some guy on his deathbed for? There are things more important in life and everyone should be happy with what they have and the minute you feel let down because some Atari collection goes into the dump or someone else's collection and not yours, you should get out of the hobby. I'm only speaking for myself when I say this but, I don't want people in the hobby that get emotional when things don't go as planned with a trade or sale, its just not worth it. Someone else beat you to the punch, oh well... I mean it has happened to all of us in our lives. Go out and make a difference. I have devoted my collecting to focus on instruction variations for the Atari 2600. It will take the strength of all the collectors in this hobby if it is to continue on past our own generations.

I'll bid $60 and if wonder 007 doesn't bid anymore and I win, I will send him the documentation for free!

Some stuff I'm looking for: -Some 3rd party 2600 boxed titles (i don't have many boxes so just let me know if you have any) -Boxes for unliscensed NES titles and complete black box NES stuff -I'm in need of a duck hunt and gyromite that are mint CIB -Pair of NES ROB hands. -Some jaguar games to round out my collection of 20-25 titles as well as -Any complete gameboy b/w games -I'm always looking for rare atari 2600 instructions but there are very few I still need (around 30) -I am looking for a lot of boxes for systems if they are in good shape (5200,7800,INTV, B/W gameboy, Nomad, Vectrex system boxes) -Asteroids Deluxe atariage release for the 7800 -I ATari 2600 off your rocker and halloween both with labels. Instructions are a plus. Willing to trade for or buy these items if you have them. -I am also looking for a t-handle Condor attack and a lochjaw carts or instructions.

I have the following Cola Invaders games left and would be willing to trade for items = in value to the release price that I need for my 2600 collection. Keep in mind this release comes boxed with instructions and a complete history of why the game was made. The high score to date is: 10,220 points 26,37,43

Wanted to add that I'm looking for these items still. I will trade some very nice things if you have any of this stuff. I also have a few Cola Invaders left avaialble for trade as well. I am also looking for a t-handle Condor attack and a lochjaw cart or instructions.

The only one of those Atari releases I haven't seen with a retail sticker on the box is silver gravitar.

I own these Atari brand games: Star Wars 2 Tempest machines Stun Runner Crystal Castles in a missile command cab. Asteroids cocktail Klax

I owned one and can be 100% sure the inner bezel was black behind the colored glass.

Bride of Pinbot is a great machine, congrats on the purchase. It's the best of the pinbot series for sure. If you ever get down near dayton ohio or cincinnati, you should play some pinball machines we have set up. Strangely enough, we have a Bride of Pinbot for sale right now.

My boss at work owns one. We have been trying to restore it in our spare time. Somehow we ended up with two boardsets as well. A fairly valuable boardset I would imagine. Bad thing is that neither one of the boards works correctly. They both kind of do something but the game is unplayable. Also, as a sidenote, at the moment, I play my Stunrunner machine the most out of and of my arcade games. The only bad thing about the game is that it is too short and goes from easy to nearly impossible to complete the final challenge stage.

Yeah that´s right but IMO a loose Out of Control isn´t a super rare game! Yes it is. They aren't offered for sale very often. There are no more than 200 floating around that's for damn sure. I see the same ones selling over and over again. People seem to assume that if there are 10 quadrun auctions a year on ebay, that account s for 10 copies of a rare game. That's just bad logic. It would likely work out to 6 or 7 unique carts the way people resell on ebay these days.

I have some of these left if anyone wants one for $40 including shipping, just let me know. I don't care if people sell them on ebay. There is no way that the auction is legit. I have a list of everyone's name/username who has purchased one just in case they do sell on ebay so i can keep track of where the games end up. This was really just a well documented experiment of sorts.
