Underball Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 LOL. It's a standard CX-80 trak-ball that they wired in the resistors to be 2-button compatible for 7800 games. It's the same $15 trak-ball Best sells new, plus $1.99 worth of resistors. The $89.95 they're asking is ridiculous. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1500 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 This site be in Minnesota. Hey, I live there! Do we now have TWO Atari sales sites that are in dire need of a makeover? This looks like it was made in '95. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S1500 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Oh wait, there's also Sierra Bravo, who's website design still looks like a BBS from the 80s. Whether it's Amazon, or whatever, I will predict this: You could have a retro game store on the web that charges a few bucks more than the competition. You could blow the others out of the water just by having a fully-functioning ecommerce solution like thousands of other sites have enjoyed for many years. People would value convenience over saving $. But that's just my theory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stephen Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Please don't buy from Bravo Siera. The BS initial is appropriate as the ass-hat that runs the place has single handedly destroyed the comp.sci.atari8bit newsgroup. He spams more than every Viagra seller combined and has for over a decade ignored polite pleas to stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean he's still on Usenet? Now I'm wondering why he's never doing it on AtariAge or any of the other WWW forums? Just curious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because if he tried his ass would be kicked out of her pretty quickly. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
