homerwannabee #3 Posted April 17, 2008 I would say Tax Avoiders is your winner it is a rarity 5 game. Final Approach is a harder rarity 4 to get. All the others are basically your common carts. There are some other rarity fours in there like Big Birds Egg Catch, and Donkey Kong Jr, but there is not much of a demand for these games as of yet.

I appreciate the responses and look forward to more. I am going to be selling everything except for my personal collection that I use just for fun and not for collecting purposes. Any idea on a $$$ for these rare games? I am not looking for a collectors value but just a reasonable idea as to what I can possibly sell them for. Thanks Again!

decypher #5 Posted April 17, 2008 Oh boy another one with a get rich quick idea. Do us and yourself a favor and search for yourself. If YOU want to sell them do some of the work yourself. Everyone here is more than willing to help someone but if all you want is money do some research. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Selling these games for a dollar per rarity in the market place is your best bet. So if you have a rarity 1 game charge a dollar, if you have a rarity 4 game charge 4 dollars. For the Tax Avoiders game I would say $7 to $10 is a fair price range (Depends on the condition). If you have Ebay I would probably sell Tax Avoiders there and start it out at .99 cents and see where it takes you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CudaSales #7 Posted April 17, 2008 (edited) Oh boy another one with a get rich quick idea. Do us and yourself a favor and search for yourself. If YOU want to sell them do some of the work yourself. Everyone here is more than willing to help someone but if all you want is money do some research. Wow.... Didn't expect your reply. I am not expecting to get rich but I do not want to get ripped off either. I just asked for a little help. If it' too much of a burden then please don't reply. Everyone else has been incredibly helpful and it is very much appreciated. It seems like a tight nit community and I was under the impression that everyone helps each other especially with newbies like myself. I have been playing the Atari since it first came out but I am not a collector and use it for fun only. Now my kids are enjoying it as well and it is time to get rid of some of the stuff collecting dust. Sorry for the inconvenience.

decypher #8 Posted April 17, 2008 All I am saying is don't come on here looking to be hand fed. Do some research then ask questions. But "How Rare is this and how much can I get for it" is just crazy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CudaSales #12 Posted April 17, 2008 gotta watch it around here...it's like swimming with sharks!! LOL... Thanks for the Advice. I don't get upset easy and take it all in stride. I have a lot of patience especially with 2 sons. When I get frustrated I hide away in my office and turn on the Atari or my old TI-99/4A Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
homerwannabee #13 Posted April 17, 2008 Actually Decypher is one of the nicer members here. What you may not realize Cuda is that it seems that every other week or so we get people coming on board asking how much their stuff is worth and how rare it is. After awhile this can get extremely annoying to some of the members. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After awhile this can get extremely annoying to some of the members. I Completely Understand. Decypher just came off as being very Negative and not Inviting or Helpful at all. I would try a different approach but no harm done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CudaSales #16 Posted April 17, 2008 Thanks for all of the PMs. It is Fantastic to see all of the helpful people. I do not mean to come off harsh and definitely am not looking to get rich. I just want to unload a few things and apparently upset 1 individual. I have no idea of what this stuff is worth now days and just wanted some assistance. The rarity guide is a Huge Help and it looks like most of my stuff is common which is just fine as we have enjoyed a lot of this stuff for years and I just came across a bunch more stuff recently.

CudaSales #17 Posted April 22, 2008 (edited) With your help I am down to my last Atari 2600 system for sale and down to 75 games from the original 142. Of course I am keeping one of the 2600 systems for myself to relive my youth I am definitely not getting rich but cleaning out my duplicates and items I no longer use so others can enjoy them. Just wanted to say thanks for all of the help and advice on where I can research everything and the links that you guys have sent me to.
