I purchased several Atari 8-bit games from adam242. He gave me a great deal, they arrived quickly and were packaged incredibly well. Best of all, he's also a super nice guy. I would not hesitate to recommend him!

Ditto, I bought 6 x Atari 8-bit carts from adam242.  He shipped them out quickly and they were package well.  Very happy with my purchase.

I bought a 800 keyboard from adam242. He was a pleasure to deal with. The keyboard was packaged very securely and it arrived to Canada from the US very quickly! Thanks for all of your help!

I bought an ATR-8000 from Adam. He gave me a fair price and did a superb job of packing and shipping. Great communication. I would not hesitate dealing with him in the future. ?????

I recently bought a 1030 power supply from @adam242 and am very happy with how everything went.  It arrived quickly, works great, and made me a happy camper.  Communication was also excellent.  Thank you!

[Burgel]

Highly recommended. Transaction was for a set of books. Pictures and additional information were provided on request. Communication was prompt, informative, and clear. Understanding and flexible for payment methods. Shipping was fast. Books arrived well packed in a box and in excellent shape.

I purchased the Atari light pen and cartridge from him. Super fast shipping and he even sent the manual as well! I tested it already and the pen and cartridge both worked great with no problems on my 800XL and old TV set! Thanks!

I purchased 4 Atari books from him. Great price and shipping. Our fabulous post office delivered it to the wrong business. But wasn’t Adam’s fault, the address was correct on the package. 
I would purchase from him again.

Great, smooth transaction!  Did F&F without any issues and the game he sent me came extremely quickly and well packaged. 😃

I bought a Super Color CPU Card and 400 48k upgrade from Adam. Everything was easy and quick. Would definitely do business with again!

I responded to for sale ad from Adam and here is that exchange:

 

Me: "Would you take $X shipped?" - 5/15/23 02:26am

 

Adam: "How about $Y shipped?" - 5/15/23 01:40pm

 

Me: "Ok sounds good!  Let me know your paypal and I'll send friend and family pay.  My address is: xxx" - 5/15/23 9:17pm

 

Adam: "Sorry, Mike. While I was waiting for your response, someone offered me full asking price for it." - 5/16/23 9:17pm

 

Me: "And you didn't think to offer that price to me?  I was after all the first person to respond to you about it....  Also I replied 21 hours ago..." - 5/16/23 10:17pm

 

Adam: "Yes, and the other buyer offered me full price 27 hours ago. Again, I'm sorry." - 5/16/23 10:46pm

 

Me: "Prior to that 27 hours ago you had already made ME an offer and IMHO you should not have accepted another offer without at least finishing the negotiation with me.  (ie offering it to me at full price)    I want to let you know I plan to leave feedback about this sale." - 5/16/23 10:55pm

 

Adam: "Do whatever you feel you need to do. I've done nothing wrong. And I will leave "feedback" for you as well over a transaction that never took place." - 5/16/23 10:57pm

 

Me: "You DID do something wrong, you had made me and offer and did not wait for the reply.  THAT IS WRONG." - 5/16/23 10:58pm

 

Adam: "An offer is NOT a commitment. First come, first served. Grow up." - 5/16/23 10:59pm

 

Me: "I'm sorry I'm older than you are obviously because that is NOT how an honorable individual does a transaction.  Once we both had started negotiations then the correct and honorable thing would be to finish that negotiation." - 5/16/23 11:05pm

 

Adam: "Then you should have responded sooner. I was in no binding negotiation with you." - 5/16/23 11:09pm

 

This is not about legality this is about performing a sale in an honorable way.  IMHO this was not handled in an honorable way.  Every sale I've ever done I've always given the buyer a chance to respond because most people have a life and aren't able to respond 24x7.  Just offering how this went down. 

 

[adam242]

Yes, the guy took 8 hours to respond to an offer and got butt-hurt that in the meantime someone else offered me full asking price.

 

Making a lowball offer then getting upset that a buyer accepted a full-price sale is NOT how you transact.

Fast communication, excellent packaging, and an absolute joy of a transaction. Item was exactly as described. Couldn't be happier.

 

Thanks!

Item brand new as described, works perfectly, shipped promptly. Better yet, forthright member of the community who values reputation above business proceeds. Glad to have made yet another friend here on AtariAge. Transact with confidence. Thanks, Adam!

Hi, it's me again, singing the praises of adam242 for another fantastic transaction. Thank you so much!

[+bent_pin]

@adam242 was kind enough to sell me a CX85 brand new in the box for my museum project. His offered it to me for a really good rate and I received it very quickly after sending payment.

 

I can't wait to see what else he has to sell.
