Calthaza Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Checking interest for a BMX Airmaster, ATARI Release. NEW with shrinkwrap. It is a PAL version, not NTSC sadly. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ATARI-BMX-Airmaster-for-the-VCS-Atari-2600-/261587201318? OddIE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre81 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Totally unreliable seller. Keeps disappearing since 6 months. I wouldn't send a single Dollar towards him. :thumbsdown: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calthaza Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Disappearing? Just because you didnt actually even give me a real offer? also, the last PM from you was 2 months and 5 days ago, not 6 months. Get your facts straight before posting stuff about ppl? And back then, i was just checking interest, which is the same i do now. I do not "NEED" to sell it.

Andre81 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 You posted the games first time in March, then you disappeared till May, then you came back in July and disappeared till September. No one needs a seller who is "gauging interest" every 2 months and never follows up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calthaza Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share Posted September 8, 2014 Well, the item is out on Ebay. Thats a follow up in my eyes. And i did not need to sell when i did not get any real offers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre81 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 What difference does it make? It's too expensive for a PAL version. Too many time wasters. Same pattern every time, someone just registers to gauge interest for games he may or may not have but never follows up. And after everyones time was wasted 3 times the game is posted with a ridiculous price and a "I do not need to sell". Guess those sellers do not understand that after they annoyed every interested collector there is no one left to buy the game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Interesting that this pops up in Norway, the land where the first stash of NIB Motorodeo's came from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pangasinan Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 You are selling a $20 game for $200 ? interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre81 Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 You are selling a $20 game for $200 ? interesting. To be fair a sealed BMX is worth more than $20, but not $200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calthaza Posted September 9, 2014 Author Share Posted September 9, 2014 Well, i got a PM from one of the guys here on AtariAge, someone with like 3000 posts who says he sold one to a friend for $220. that was an item that was crushed in one end. Mine is not crushed. He said he could get more on the open market for it aswell, so starting at $200 wouldnt really be that far off. He also said: "You'll be getting a message from a member Andre81 who collects sealed games." Soo, If it for some reason does not get any attention at all for $200, i will probably try it a lil lower next time ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nofrills100 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I agree the OP is not going about the sale in a very logical manner, and the frustration expressed is understandable. You found a number of them sealed, which lowers the demand a little considering there are not too many sealed collectors out there. I did sell a crushed sealed example for roughly the asking price of this example, but that was years ago mind you - and at that stage I had never seen another sealed example. I still think the asking price on this is pretty much ball park, I've seen sealed lesser rarity games go for more (and by rarity - I'm talking about the PAL boxed rarity of this - not the loose rarity which is common enough). Perhaps you have burnt your bridges somewhat? Just stick it on ebay for $1 and link the auction on Atariage and let the market decide the value. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I like turtles! Actually after looking at the crushed top corner I should amend that to $80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of you also know that by the first post, i did not have my hand on the games yet. But with someone selling a worse item for $220, noone can blame me for putting it up at $200. I mean, if it isnt going for the asking price, it is pretty sure that i will list it at a lower starting bid later. But the game also cost me quite a bit, its not like it was given to me..

iwan-iwanowitsch-goratschin Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 $200 for a sealed copy in that shape is not that expensive. Make it $150 an it is a real good deal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
