I got the cart in the mail today, end label intact (whew!) and I'm pleased with it. It's not the prettiest looking Atari cart in the world, but I wouldn't kick it out of bed for eating crackers.

BTW, congrats again on the score, and it was fun to put a name to a face at Midwest Gaming Classic this weekend.

Damn, foiled again! I just got the shipping notification from the seller letting me know that I can now stop being as nervous as a dog shitting tacks. Also, I'm not taking the cart to MGC out of fear that someone might throw enough money at me to sell it .

Would it be okay for somebody to throw money at you for it who would give it a good home and not resell? ...hypothetically speaking of course.

Long time no see.

I thought your kids had you under control these days?

They do for the most part, but I still scan eBay for "Atari 2600" once in a while, sort by highest bid, and tempt my demons.

Air Raid made me stop and look, and I just had to come out here to Atariage again and see the banter. I scanned the threads quickly and saw Lochjaw... another weakness/long time want.

Always an honor and privilege speaking with you CPUWIZ. Hope all is well.

Talk about low water-marks: eBay Auction -- Item Number: 360246495794

I saw this OOC with manual, seconds after it was listed, seller had some side-deal offers too.

Figured it would go higher than that, looks nice.

When I saw it hit $200 I knew I wasn't the only one that saw it. I thought for sure School Girl was going to bid a lot higher than he did on it. Oh well It is not that high on my priority list. With a manual that was a pretty good deal.

yeah i put in a $200+ bid with seconds left only to notice it sold for a little over $300 crazy but good win by whoever got it and happy hunting muhahahaha lol
