I describe and photo my items to the best of my knowledge and complete truth

 

Wow - even he doesn't know what's inside!

That's bizzare.I'm surprised ebay allows such auctions at all.

Pretty carry case for your 10 Combat cartridges!

[Radio F Software]

Combat (2 of them), Pitfall, Space Invaders, Pac Man (2 of them), ET, Frogger, Asteroids, and Missile Command.

 

My predictions. Very rare indeed. So rare I am sitting on a freaking goldmine right now.

Well, you gotta look at the big picture. Close your eyes, stick your hand out in front of you and grab something. It's not very likely that you're gonna pick up a Combat cartridge, is it?? See how rare it is??

 

He means rare in the absolute sense.

Don't bother bidding if you are a "rookie".

I know what the gifts are in that estate sale.

 

They're called air molecules.

Man, I want to print out a bunch of $1 bills with my face on them, stuff them all inside a safety deposit box, and sell that box on eBay.

[Shawn]

I just sent the seller this:

 

using www.atariage.com 's rarity scale from 1 to 10 how rare are the rare games in this box? I'm not asking for names of the games I just want to be sure of there minimum rarity as lots of people that know nothig about atari think that a pacman cart is rare when really it's only worth $1 dollar or less. I just want to know there reallt is actually rare games involved in this auction and not some type of under informed persons or just a scam (no offense).

 

Anyone think I'll actually get a response? I dont.

Three things can happen:

 

1) You get a response telling that all the games are common

 

2) You don't hear anything from the seller. Then you can assume they are all common

 

3) The auction is suddenly cancelled and the seller starts new auctions for a Quadrun, Malagai and a Videolife.

[Shawn]

Well to my suprise I actually did get a response from the seller in regards to the games and there rairty per AA guide listings!! Here is what the seller has to say, and I quote:

 

Hi, I looked them all up. Kinda hard finding the actual scale thing. Anyhow, some rated as a 3, 2, and a few as question marks. I am not trying to scam anyone... I didnt really think that they are a big deal ! There are 9 games in this chest... so no matter how you look at it... it is worth the money. Thanks for showing me that neat page. God Bless, MD

 

So I'm assuming a Snoopy or something and maybe a Tiwan Cooper or a zellers cart or two..lol..

[diggs130]

well #10 must be really rare and been taken out

 

 

Thats it Im not bidding!

[Zwackery]

I'm curious enough to kick in a few bucks and see if we could raise a pool to see what is in the box (having not completely thought through the logistics of this), or just ask Trench to bid on it. The shipping cost does seem a bit excessive.

[diggs130]

I asked a few questions myself~

 

 

replys-

 

Hi, The chest weighs next to nothing so it really wouldnt change the shipping amount. Sorry.

Blessings....

xxxooo

Hi, OOPS! Sorry about that. There are 10 games

Its trying to tempt me the damn chest!!!!

Let's just contact the winner to find out what the games were. It sounds fishy when they claim some are rare and then in an e-mail reply, the seller admits they don't know sh*t about these.

[Almost Rice]

Why hide it if its so rare. People would bid it up if they knew what it was. Knowing nothing, they would be lucky to get their starting bid.

Less than 90 minutes to go...is anybody thinking about bidding? Should I be so curious about the contents? I'm feeling a little Mardi Gras madness coming on. The shipping is kinda ridiculous...wonder if local pickup is okay...
