ATARIPITBULL #1 Posted January 21, 2002 I just won the bid on a sealed, mint in the box copy of Pengo for $94.00 on ebay. Does anyone think I paid too much for this. I have not seen a boxed copy of Pengo ever in the two years I have been on ebay. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mountain King #2 Posted January 21, 2002 ***Shudders*** As much as I like Pengo, I think that was a bit much. But then again I just paid $50 for a Tomarc the Barbarian. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mountain King #3 Posted January 21, 2002 Actually, Alex would probably like a scan of the box for Atari Age. I can scan the manual you're interested too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adrian M #4 Posted January 21, 2002 It's rare, it's Pengo and it's new/sealed. For those reasons, the price you paid was fair. Congratulations on winning the game! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MattyXB #5 Posted January 21, 2002 Yes, I think too is a good price. I have get my Pengo only loose for ca. US$ 25.00. And complete they are more Rarer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, we'd very much like to get a scan of the box, as we don't have one presently. However, I think I have a Pengo manual in my possession, so no need to scan that. ..Al Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ATARIPITBULL #7 Posted January 21, 2002 Hey Albert, no problem, you know I will do all that I can to help out Atariage, so when I receive the box, I will scan it and send it over. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I stopped bidding because in the picture it looks like the box is quite squished... or did I see wrong? Cheers, Marco Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess Mint would be pushing it, because the box does look a little crushed at the bottom, in typical Atari fashion. However, I'm sure the contents inside are mint. And it's cool seeing an original Sears price tag on the box bottom. As for the price, well, if you're willing to spend $94 for it then I guess it's worth that much! That's a touch high for my blood, but if it was one of the last remaining Silver box Atari games I needed for my collection then I might have gone that high. ..Al Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tempest #10 Posted January 21, 2002 It wasn't boxed, but I picked up Pengo with the instructions for $14 last week. I think this is one of those boxes I'll never get... Tempest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

atari70s #14 Posted January 22, 2002 i cant see spending 94 on pengo . maybe 45 or 50 on a sealed boxed one but it was a good deal at 94 jsut the same. 50 for tomarc wasnt bad. i ended paying 90 for shuttle orbiter while back. i think that was a fair deal but its one mans opinion. pengo loose i only paid 1.99 for. (God Bless the idiots that listed the game as ATARE 260 lol his screwup was my gain Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
