Blazing Lazers Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Can you provide pictures, video, etc if this cartridge to prove this sale is legit? Be upfront and forthcoming and this will be one if the rare five figure game sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianoid Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Weird, so how does this relate to the Rare Earth Video Games post? Is it a second original cartridge or is that one a copy made by CPUWIZ? http://atariage.com/forums/topic/241496-authentic-red-sea-crossing-available/?do=findComment&comment=3296846 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icemanxp300 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 There were two copies of this that surfaced at the exact same time back when it was being sold a few years ago. Seems like the trend is happening again. Funny how these just magically keep re-appearing lol soon as attention is brought to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a second original cartridge or is that one a copy made by CPUWIZ? http://atariage.com/forums/topic/241496-authentic-red-sea-crossing-available/?do=findComment&comment=3296846 Our cartridge is authentic. We have been in private negotiations regarding the sale of the item and were informed that individuals on Atariage may not be aware that ours was for sale. There are two known authentic cartridges. Ours was found at Medium Bob's Curiosity shop in PA. It sold on eBay in 2012. Here it the related Atariage discussion: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/202506-medium-bobs-red-sea-crossing-auction-on-ebay/ Edited August 10, 2015 by REVG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I knew the other person who has the second copy, apparently not or that one is fake. Either way, pretty dense timing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I knew the other person who has the second copy, apparently not or that one is fake. Either way, pretty dense timing. Ours is authentic and has appropriate documentation that supports the transfer of ownership. The timing is quite simple. An Atariage member was informed that the item was available. The atariage member made an inquiry to the other seller and then the other seller listed his here. We don't want to hijack this thread. We will be happy to answer questions on our thread or privately. Thanks! Edited August 10, 2015 by REVG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari4You Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 i got mine from the person who originally found the game. besides, I am close to selling this, i think i will wrap this up very very soon. . i know i won't get what i paid for it since i released it and lowered the value of the game, oh well. i think mine is cool because it was the first copy found in the wild. by the way.thanks to all who have put in a bid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari4You Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 I would before #3 pops up true. I was contacted by another individual (not the revg people) who has one too. he was discouraged to sell it because of the repros I made. he heard about the cart when all of the hoopla was going on the two sales a few years ago and realized that he had one too. .

If I haven't thanked you before, I'll thank you now for making this game available for reproduction! Both cartridge images are on the atarimania link you posted. The last picture is the 2nd cartridge that appeared when both of these were selling. The last picture matches exactly the other seller's picture. I guess it takes something like this to show that there may be a 3rd original version out there. Congratulations on your sale! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain_Combat Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I'm a little confused soo rare earth games has one up for sale & atari4you at the same time? Or did atari4you sell his/her copy to rare earth or is it just random that two are up at the same time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
