2007houk Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I saw a lot of good atari stuff on there but I have never heard of them. Does any one have any experance with them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holygrailvideogames.com Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 (edited) I haven't dealt with them. Years ago (probably more than 10+ years) they had a lot more classic stuff than they do now. They have sold off a lot of their stock. Sometimes they sell on eBay as well. From what I have heard they are reputable. Edited June 12, 2008 by holygrailvideogames.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nathanallan Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 they're actually local to me. I haven't bought anything from them, but they didn't have much of a selection, either. I was told that if I want to buy locally, I have to be at the warehouse downtown before 9am and pick out what I want. There is no storefront, anymore. The lady was nice on the phone and she told me that she does web orders all the time, and I haven't heard anything bad. Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bojay1997 Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 They are legit, although as others have pointed out, not exactly cheap anymore or well stocked. Back in the late 90s, they had a bunch of NOS Vectrex systems and 3D goggles which they sold for literally bargain basement prices before they realized they had any value. When they realized their mistake, they quickly repriced all the Colecovision, Intellivision and Atari stuff they had in stock. They were selling Parker Bros. 2600 game bundles on Ebay for a while, as well as some Colecovision peripherals. My only complaint with them is that some of the boxes are dingy and occasionally have scrapes or big dents in them. If you are someone who doesn't care about the box, they are probably a safe seller for you. Of course, at these prices, you're probably not buying the games to play.

chuckwalla Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I bought a slew of games from them several years ago and they are honest, ship very fast, and shipping cost was excellent - one order was for 5 games (3 coleco, 2 atari) and the total shipping was $5 - I still have the invoice. Games in mint/sealed condition each time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Psionic Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Just now browsing their online prices... VERY steep. I mean $7.50 + shipping for a loose E.T. 2600 ?? shew Huh? The games are all NIB. I've ordered from them a few times. Never had any problems, but most of those items can be acquired elsewhere for the same price or lower.

Mark Wolfe Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 eh, whatever, it's steep in my opinion. everything they have is super expensive. what exactly would anyone consider a bargain on this site? I only looked at the first page of listings for games, but it all seemed.... over priced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathanallan Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 (edited) Holy crap, those listings are kind of new. I haven't looked at the page in quite a while though. I'm looking at Demon Attack for the Intellivision, and they want $15, that doesn't sound very steep to me. NIB? Sounds pretty good, actually. Just looked at their Wico trackball, and that does seem a little high. Theirs, Wico Trackball controller, NIB, $29.99; Best Electronics Atari CX-80 trackball unknown completeness, $18. hmmm.
