RoadGlider47 Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 (edited) I just don't have room for this beast anymore. Everything works. TV is an old analog but will play just fine for the Atari. New power supply and coax to S-video connector. Located in Peoria, Arizona. Asking $2000 OBO.

+groundtrooper Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Very nice. I am next door. But I don't have room for that unfortunately. Nice to see one so complete and in amazing shape. It puts other ones recently offered not nearly as complete for similar money. Good luck. I really wish I had room. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+stupus Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Lol, as tempting as that sounds to leave the foot of snow here....i cant afford that. I could swing it if it was local and i skipped a few meals and bills 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfy62 Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 (edited) Wow,that's really nice. And cool! What's your origin story on that? How did you acquire it? That is an extremely cool collectible. If I could justify that right now..... Kids going to college,reality always stops me.? Edited February 5, 2021 by wolfy62 Adding info.

Atari_Bill Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 For that unit that’s not a bad price. Someone will take that off your hands. I would even consider if I had room, but that’s just not the case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I picked mine up I took them apart and all the pieces fit in my suv. I’m tempted to go out there and try the superstition mountain hike again that I didn’t make it to the top. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to restore it and stock it with games and put it beside pong I would also love to be able to make patterns of the pieces. I was a furniture maker and could easily reproduce its case. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Combat Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 8 days is not long enough it’s 70-80 degrees out there need a month or two . I should have you reproduce the base for the kiosk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stupus Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 True, i probably wouldnt come back from arizona...probably would take it over to richards and muscle my way in to becoming his poolboy and live in his shed. I can route parts if i have patterns and make the trenches for attaching arcade molding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Combat Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Yeah you would not come back. I bought a kiosk at an estate sale and the base had water damage. I was taking the kiosk apart in the basement . I had my cell phone on a shelf down there and twice people picked it up trying to buy it when I was taking pieces up to my suv 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadGlider47 Posted February 6, 2021 Author Share Posted February 6, 2021 My dad purchased this from a Meijer in Saginaw, MI. The store was going to throw it in a dumpster. The pictures are from his basement where we played the heck out of it when I was a kid. It sat there for years and my kids played off and on. 2 years ago, he moved out to Arizona and I had it in my house. We played it for a few months, but it got overlooked for computers, phones and XBOX. It is all there except for the plexiglass for the bottom cabinet. There are some scratches. Some of the chrome tape is missing along the front edges. And it is very dusty. The joysticks, paddles, and fire buttons all still work. All the games are working as I tested it when it arrived from Michigan. I bought a new power supply and TV connector as the originals just weren't working after the trip to Arizona. The light with the Atari logo works and has no cracks or breaks. I really hate to sell it, but we are downsizing our home and my parents don't have room for it either. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machine Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 If you were not so far away......I would consider this. 837 miles is just too far to drive(one way). I guess I am lucky it is so far. I don't have to debate buying it. Nice unit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
