memugking Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I'm pretty serious about selling my recently acquired Atari 2600 Superman cart labeled with the Sears Tele-games logo. Photos attached are of the cart. Serious offers only, plz! I hold the option to refuse all proposed offers, close the offer, and keep the cart for myself; no offense to any interested parties. I would prefer to NOT go through any auction sites & have them rake me over the coals with fees & whatnot. I will accept payment through PayPal only! No other method, please! (Just want to ensure everyone gets what they want.) I have received a few offers already, just want to open it up to as many collectors as possible since this appears to be a diamond in the rough & in all fairness, everyone deserves a chance.

VicViper Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Erm, is sears superman really worth all that much? I thought cannon man was the rarest sears cart, and even thats just an R6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djpubba Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 It's worth $468.58: http://www.atari2600.com/priceguide/ I'm not collecting 2600 carts any more so I'll offer $200 if you don't mind me flipping it on eBay to help pay for what I am collecting.

atari181 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Wait...is this cart seriously that rare?...(runs to the collection closet, to check my superman carts). It is a super rare label variation, for a long time, people thought it was just a myth. So yeah, it's worth a bunch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mb7241 Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Congrats on the sale . I remember one coming up for auction on eBay when I was in college (this was...2003, I think? maybe '04?)...it sold for $700-something back then, but I think it was either the first one discovered or one of only a couple at that time.

ianoid Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 The greed conclusion: EVERY SUPERMAN PICTURE LABEL IS WORTH MORE THAN $500. I WILL BUY EVERY ONE I CAN FOR $500 TO FLIP FOR $700. The collector's conclusion (and my conclusion): Prices on this will level out well below that price as more (not very many more) pop up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariLeaf Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Maybe I'm just nutty, but I don't believe that the color yellow and the "Sears Telegames" logo is worth $500 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to pay $100 for one, I could stomach that for a nice rare label variation. Unfortunately I may have to pay quite a bit more.

It's no more fun than the game you can pick up for a buck or two. The label doesn't make it a different game. Some of you collectors are whack. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
