Arcade Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 I haven't posted here in a very long time. I'll be honest, I just don't enjoy playing my Atari 2600 anymore. It's been a number of years since I really sat down to play it. I'm only keeping a small handful of games in my collection (for the few random times I do decide to play). I've got some personal issues going on in my life, as well as another child on the way. I've already traded in a lot of my personal video game collection. I have no regrets whatsoever and am looking at being more focused on my family. I will still play video games as they've always been a part of my life. However, when I look at games I haven't played in YEARS, I think it's time to let go. I do NOT have a PayPal, so if you are interested, PM me. I will do a personal check and once it goes through I will send out the games. I would really like to send everything as a whole. I don't want to break this apart as I need to get these out ASAP. I might lose more customers that way and I might even get less money that way. If so, so be it, but I've got too much right now and I just need to make one trip if possible. I also don't want to wind up with some games gone while I'm left with others that nobody wants. If we can't agree upon a decent price or nobody is interested, I'll probably trade them in locally. I know I will lose even more money this way, but I'll do what I have to. I really want these to go to someone who loves the 2600. I don't have the passion for the system like I used to, and I don't want these games just sitting here. I want them to be played and enjoyed. Now that I've said this, here is the list: 1) AStar (with manual) 2) Adventure Plus 3) Atari Vox device (with manual) 4) Bee*Ball (with manual) 5) Conquest of Mars (with manual) 6) Fall Down (with manual) 7) Gingerbread Man (with manual) Go*Fish! (with manual) 9) Lady Bug (with manual) 10) Mean Santa (#76/#100, with box and manual) 11) Okie Dokie (with manual) 12) Qb (with manual) 13) Reindeer Rescue (with manual) 14) Space Instigators (with box and slip of paper...didn't come with manual that I recall) 15) Stella's Stocking (2007 Holiday Cart, #94, with manual) 16) Strat o Gems (with manual) 17) Swoops! (with manual) 18) Toyshop Trouble (with manual) I also have most if not all of the cardboard/plastic that the manuals came in with the games when I purchased these years ago from this site. I will also include these, as I should have enough for every manual. If not, I will double pack a few so the manuals stay nice. I have tested all games and AtariVox. They have all worked perfectly for me. I don't recall Adventure Plus coming with a manual. I have checked my manual box and don't see one. Also I have some of the slips that AA would ship with purchases. 3 of them say "Thank you for your purchase" with some artwork on one side, with an explanation of homebrews on the other. I also have an insert from when I bought Stella's Stocking. It has a small comic showing the SS carts piling up in front of Artie the Atari (and even has a coupon valid through June 30th, of 2008!). I will throw these in for you as well if you want them for your collection. If you don't want them, I'll hold on to them. Please PM me with offers, and if someone offers more, I will let the others know I received a higher offer. I'm not great with shipping prices, so would $5 to $10 be too much to ask? I don't know if I will have to buy a box at the post office or if my wife can find me one at her work place. Please be honest and let me know how much on shipping. If shipping costs more than what I ask for, it's not biggie. Thanks to everyone, and I hope to hear from you all soon. I will probably stop taking offers this Sunday on January 18th at 10:00pm. I'm trying to be as fair as I can. Any questions feel free to ask, but remember, I want to sell all these items as a whole cause I want to make one trip and not be left stuck with some games left over.

Albert Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Please describe the "box" with Space Instigators. Don't get too excited. It's a plastic VHS case with a printed insert. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+bfstats Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Oh, was my "excitement" showing, Albert? Thanks for the info. And bah-humbug to plastic VHS cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcade Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 Al is correct. There is a velcro attached to the inside of the box. The game itself has the other part stickied on it, so you just stick it in the box and good to go. Kind of funny looking if you don't keep it in the box and stack it on top of other games, though.

Yeah, I'm not fond of those plastic boxes, and in fact, Space Instigators is sold without the box now. It's getting more difficult to find those cases anyway, since there isn't much of a demand for VHS tapes these days. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betamax case should have been the preferred method from the get go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, and I'm sitting on an entire pallet of those things. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
