canyonfisher Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 So eBay doesn't allow the sale of prototypes because they consider it beta software, akin to selling an unreleased version of PhotoShop. Some people have suggested to me you can still sell prototypes on eBay by NOT mentioning that they are prototypes, with the additional suggestion of using a reserve price, a high starting bid, etc, etc.... Can anyone show me an example of a completed listing on eBay of such a sale? If they are no longer in the database, can they explain their story? Has anyone here ever bought or sold a proto on eBay? Anywhere else? I sold two of mine (Microgrammon SB and Galaxian) through the forums here... (Thank you AtariAge!) I have many more to sell. Please let me know if there is a title you are interested in. I will negociate for multiple purchases. Please don't lowball ball me, I have had these carts for many years, and am in no hurry to get rid of them. Please see my listing in the Marketplace forum which includes pics & fair prices.

+Wonder007 Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Do you have any Atari 2600 NTSC protos available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canyonfisher Posted April 6, 2006 Author Share Posted April 6, 2006 5200 protos only at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_ Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 5200 protos only at this point. Last Starfighter? I´d be very interested in that one. Regarding protos and eBay, I bought two Jaguar protos not too long ago. Space War 2000 and Phase Zero. Can´t actually remember much from the transaction other than they probably weren´t listed as protos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Sport Goofy WIP 3-28 $300 I'd be interested in seeing this one. It's only two weeks earlier than the final version I have, but I wonder if it's actually different or not. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
