If you didn't make it to the 2001 Classic Gaming Expo in Las Vegas, here is a rare opportunity to pick up prototype reproductions Combat 2 and Elevator Action for the Atari 2600.

eBay Auction -- Item Number: 270777128919

I marked the condition as "good" because there are some slight scuff marks on the boxes. I'll post more detailed photos soon so you can see the exact condition.



By the way, it's an auction for charity supporting the Sacramento SPCA.

Is the Elevator action tested/working? Those things had a high failure rate

I wasn't aware of that...Mine is still sealed ...scared to look now.

They did? Guess I got lucky then. My carts were tested three days ago and they work.

DON'T OPEN IT! The guy that made them was pretty much using a blow torch to get the SARA chips off donor boards and fried most of them in the process. Odds are at best 50\50 that your cart works.

At the time they where first sold I have no idea if refunds or exchanges where offered. Thing is now it's many years later and kinda hard to ask for a replacement or a refund espcially after the games have changed hands so many times.

By the way, I'm willing to ship to Canada and Western Europe too. If you win the auction PM me and we'll work out the shipping cost.

I'll change my listing to include international shipping if I can figure out how, but it appears eBay is restricting my listing to the USA.

Sold for $41. Congrats to the winner.
