Where to Find an Affordable 2600 in Australia

[vidak]

Hey! 2600s are super expensive here in Australia.

 

I have attached some photos of the cheapest online listings, to show you just how expensive 2600 items are.

 

The Xbox One S is 299 here in Australia with 2 games, I refuse to believe 250 for a single 2600 console is a good deal.

 

Does anyone know where I'd be able to get a decent deal on a 2600 here in Australia?

wow you'd probably be better off importing a console from the UK or somewhere else in Europe

just a quick search and you can get an av modded jr from sweden for a fraction of that

I have some well worn pal-b Jrs I would clean up and give to you for like $15/$20, but shipping is like $75(US) from USA to Australia.

 

Your best bet to be REALLY active searching eBay for a deal - I've gotten nes top loaders for sometimes 40 to 60 dollars lower than average.

Look for auctions ending at times when people are at work or asleep.

 

Here is a couple to start:

On ebay.com.au
