Seller is in Germany, it's a private auction, and he/she is only shipping within Europe (kinda makes sense, since it will be a PAL system, but sucks for anybody else with PAL tv equipment). That said, are those 6 cartridges REALLY 2600 carts? They don't look like anything I've ever seen, not even for homebrews!

Those are definitely not Atari 2600 carts--they appear to be Famicom carts.

Someone just did something similar on Ebay recently. He had listed he was selling an Intellivision System with games but he was actually selling an Atari 2600 System with Intellivision games. Some people corrected him so he relisted it with the correct information.
