I'm trying to find the boxed Quadrun in that picture, but I just don't see it. That works out to $327USD, which is insane. If you look at the bidding, you'll see that it's been driven up by people with (0) or (1) feedback.

I wouldn't mind having a boxed UK Atari 2600, though. I also wouldn't mind getting box scans of those nice Red label games that were released with Silver labels here in the US..

The woodgrains usually go for £30-£50 if theyre boxed but thats just ridiculous.

I thought the small picture on the right showing a silver label game and manual might have been a Waterworld or something so I clicked it to check and guess what.....ET

I haven't been on ebay long myself - less than one year but when I joined in the fun I spent a good 8 weeks watching it to see what the score was. The thing is that we really haven't seen major marketing by ebay in the UK yet. They only advertise in magazines and crappy cable music channels. If they ever advertise on terestrial (or Network is the us term I think) were gonna be out of pocket.
