Any 2600 controllers from the 80s that you honestly think could fetch $100

I have done some brainstorming for a YouTube video that has to do with classic video game controllers that people pay over $100 for. In the end, I'm thinking people don't pay that kind of money for 2600 controllers... but could I be wrong?

 

I know there's a Wico that has an extra large base that people look for. Do you think that one would fetch more than $100?

 

Here's the link to the video if you're interested:

I own it (without the box) as seen in the video, but it doesn't exactly work right. Something inside is broken. To fix it, I'd probably have to find another one that is broken and see if two could be parted out to make one working controller...

 

That box is really cool, though...

Here are some of my rare 2600 controllers. As a kid, I drooled over these in the pages of Electronic Games magazine.

 

Fire Command II (really for ColecoVision) by GIM. I have a regular one-button Fire Command for the 2600 in bad shape.

 

Supr Stick by DZyne.

 

Fingertip Controller by KY.

Interesting. Are both pictures above taken from the same boxed unit, meaning that they packaged the two-button version of the Fire Command II in a box which only shows one fire button on each side?  :)
