jetset Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 I don't know Omega, I have to agree with McGrail on this one - New Seller w/no feedback - No pictures Sounds like a gamble if you ask me. I agree as well, however I cant tell you how many times I've seen someone with a band new user ac sign up here at AA and thier first (and only) post is selling stuff, or damn close to that. I just roll my eyes and move on, but then come back later or the next day and see the thread has like 5 responses... "PM sent" "YGPM" "PM sent" "Atarilover3642 please check your PM box" then "SOLD - thank you" I don't get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm kinda hoping Mike (Atariaction) bought it as at least then it would probably be resold. Who knows maybe a private collector got it and it's gone for good.

Phantom Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Good. As long as you fight it out in private I don't care who wins or looses but I would ask that you each throw a low blow for me as when fighting I find a punch to the balls helps to get the upper hand. If both shots throw at once a la rocky\creed spare fight you both will bag tagged and loose and I will be happy you both got a shot in the nuts The guy selling this stuff lives within a reasonable driving distance from me, I wonder if I could give him a call and do a local pickup for $10 bucks more than whatever he was offered Ok Shawn , go pick it up and we'll split it. Be fair though, offer him $10 extra from each of us. LOL! Is that how these auctions are getting stolen? Offers as soon as they are listed? No wonder you dont see many auctions with rare items anymore. Atleast not lots. Anyhow, it would be neat to go see who it was with the side offer.

C'mon Mike you are breaking my balls here. Yeah? That right? C'mon Mike you are really breaking my balls here. Can you do $$$? No? C'mon Mike you are really breaking my balls here. Anyhow I'm not fully convinced that SSS didn't actually get it. We'll see. Edited February 24, 2007 by Omegamatrix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atarimania75 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 I wouldn't mind it if a good dude like Atariaction got the stuff........i've done quite a lot of business with him and he is a good guy! He accepts reasonable offers on his best offer buy it now listings. But damn what if the Vulture Attack and Spider Maze end up being repros? No pics to see what the stuff looks like and yes a brand new seller as well. Anyone buying the stuff without seeing any pics would really be taking a risk!

CPUWIZ Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 The reserve is too high. The reserve doesnt matter when the big bidder are done bidding it will be too high for me anyway Well, for me it's a matter of principal, I just bid over $500.00 and since it hasn't been met, I will not bid again. I probably would have gone a lot higher, had there not been a reserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omegamatrix Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Well I'm tapped. That's all I can spare for that right now. I'll be damned that reserve is probably $1200. No idea really, just a hunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atarimania75 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I need this one. Jim Um Yeah! I think must of us do! Well i guess for me its not really NEED its more a want i know that paying $2000 for a game is not in the cards for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Climber Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 How different is the PAL box? Anybody know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwackery Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 That box is so...funky...I can't look away. Makes me want to dig out the velvet posters and blacklight...Atari in the TRON-like glow...wow man I'm flying back in time here I do like that box.

Omegamatrix Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 How different is the PAL box? Anybody know? You know, looking at Mike's pictures and the ones off of Atarimania, I would say none. No NTSC stickers, No Addresses, No difference. I would guess the instructions are the same, but without the PAL ones documented who knows? It has the typical cheap print of most Taiwan's. Off topic if anyone is interested Atarimania now has a complete set of Zellers instructions scans and a few Funvision too. Back on topic Mike you should really scan those instructions, please!

atariaction Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 actually i did try to scan them and it didnt work too well for me. i will try again tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omegamatrix Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 actually i did try to scan them and it didnt work too well for me. i will try again tomorrow. That'd be great! I used to have trouble with instructions to until I figured out my scanner had a B&W setting. Scans them real quick at 300dpi in B&W and they look great as long as they are nice and flat. I'm using a Lexmark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 They key to scanning, is a black page behind the one you are scanning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dino Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 How different is the PAL box? Anybody know? The boxes ar identical, except that the NTSC version has a big blue Ktel sticker on it which states that its been imported into Canada. This box does not have that sticker , so it its identical to the PAL version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
