Atari mystery box

[Red 5]

Took a chance, but for $26.00 ($0.52 a game) I figured it was worth the risk.

 

Wife confirmed I got the package today and it does have at least 50 games in the box.

 

I love boxes like this. Sure, there is a 99% chance I have all these titles (in which case they are trade bait) but

the excitement of a possible rarity in there makes it all worth it.

 

I will post what I get later tonight.

(I hope the bottle cap comes with it.)

Good luck! I always like buying big old lots and seeing what's in them. Sometimes I get a bit singed, but at .50 apiece you really can't go wrong! There were some pretty good deals on stuff like this following the ten cent listing day. I pulled the trigger on a couple of BINs and now am awaiting some 200 games...just because there were a few nice games in there that made it all worth it.

 

Definitely more fun than just buying them one by one, and sometimes I come out OK on the resale even though I am not an evil reseller. Really!

Thats not a bottle cap, Its that white fimish stuff you put over pipe fittings. OR hell maybe its some medical tape...

It's teflon tape on the left, but also looks like a plastic bottle cap on the right.

I almost bid on that too, but I'm broke. I looked at it for a good long time though trying to convince myself to do it.

 

Good Luck!

Noting but commons, but interestingly enough, a Crack'Ed, Xevious, and DK Jr. for the 7800 and a Qix for the 5200.

 

Only 3 label variations I didn't have.

 

Look for about 50 commons for trade in the marketplace soon.

I bet it was exiting opening up that box though.

I love mystery lots. It's hard to find ones that are actually real and not just someones spare commons they are pawning off as estate finds or something.

MORE WILL BE ADDED AS BIDDING GOES. If bidding reaches $40.00 seller will throw in game system and controllers. I have a ton of controllers!

 

Seems to me that there was a good chance that they were cherry picked first if the seller has all this stuff, but is selling these games for their "sister"

At least they weren't all doubles. (only three were doubles. Asteroids and combat of course)

And 54 unique common titles for $25.99 is okay by me.

 

There was a Football: Realsports Soccer that I didn't have and didn't even know existed. I thought I finished my

RealSports titles so that was a nice surpise.

 

A couple of common sears picture labels that I didn't have.

 

All the games work, so I can trade them or flip them for $ to buy games I don't have.

 

And yes, it was VERY fun pulling out cart after cart hoping for a Quadrun.

(even if the rarest thing I got was Soccer. )
