sirjesto Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I was thinking of putting this on eBay soon, but I thought I might give you guys the first crack at it. Original Atari joystick with the hex logo at the top of the shaft. email any offers to sirjesto@sympatico.ca I will answer any questions, and if I can ciome to a deal with someone, I will set up a private auction on eBay for security. Sorry about the picture, this was the best I could take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirjesto Posted January 18, 2007 Author Share Posted January 18, 2007 So this is the famed Hex stick? What's the going rate on these? ian The value of these is quite subjective. That is why I am taking some offers. email = sirjesto@sympatico.ca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coreycorey2000 Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 I'm also curious to know the value. Could you maybe post it after you find a buyer? I have a few of these I think. I include them with my atari systems regularily. Are they typically harder to find? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y-bot Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 I'm also curious to know the value. Could you maybe post it after you find a buyer? I have a few of these I think. I include them with my atari systems regularily. Are they typically harder to find? Nearly impossible to find with the hex disk. I've never seen one. I've had 20+ of the early style joysticks. Did they all have the hex duisk or was there a time when they still used that same joystick but left out the disk? Also I've found very few that work. y-bot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I include them with my atari systems regularily. Are they typically harder to find? If you have the shiny, thick hex discs, they are quite rare and expensive. The flat finish, thin version is a lot easier to find and only a fraction of the price. Its unclear from the photo which version this is but I suspect its the flat finish version....

I know that Sirjesto doesn't have too many post. I personally have done a couple of deals with him and he is a great person to deal with.

I don't want to interfere with this sale but after it is sold I hope some people post what they think the value is. y-bot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zwackery Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 I'd say around $40, depending on condition. I have one I got from CPUWIZ, and it handles like a freakin' dream. It is just simply amazing, and when I have little video game parties, I sometimes trot it out to let people feel how smooth the action is. It is definitely my favorite Atari joystick. It lords over the rest of my controllers like an idol of gaming goodness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricDeLee Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 I've got quite a few of the hex sticks... without the disks. I still have not found one with a disk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
