gamer2 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 A person at work gave me an Atari 2600 lot they found in to see if it works, they intend to sell it. I would like to get an accurate price for the system and what it comes with. It all comes in a "Atari Game Center" which is all beat up. Atari 2600 Jr. (no Switch box) 1 Joystick 1 Trackball, standard (needs cleaning) games (I think they are pretty common) Empire Strikes back (no label) Frogger Grand Prix Checkers Freeway Spider Fighter Super Challenge Football Basketball Air Sea Battle E.T. Ms. Pac-man Frostbite Stampede Battlezone Asteroids Dragonfire Pac-man Golf Infiltrate (no label) Barnstorming Lost Luggage (no label) Decathalon Moon Patrol Chopper Command Real Sports Volyball Combat Pressure Cooker Casino Demons to Diamonds Night Driver Jungle Hunt Centipede Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamer2 Posted August 28, 2012 Author Share Posted August 28, 2012 I did a price check, and being generious it comes out to $82. Is that a fair price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cvga Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I think that's a little generous. I'd put it closer to $55. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grig Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 $82 is way too much. Does the 2600 jr have a power supply? The Game Center is nice but if it is beat up then it's not worth much at all. Also the Track-ball is OK but cleaning/if it works will bring down the price. Some decent games in the lot but mostly commons - also depends on the Activision labels if they are in good shape or not. Yeah $55 sounds good if the power supply is there and it works (and of course if the joystick and track-ball works). No switch box and no paddles lessen the deal.

Stan Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Yep, all the above except your own estimation is what you can expect in the current market. I got a boxed generally mint model of the Jr. from Axe with matching serials for I believe around $40 shipped two months or so ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
