I really need one with full memory
i'm on a very tight budget though, so when you give me prices think reasonable

I believe I have one for $50 + shipping.

May or may not be reasonable, depending on what you can get them on eBay for at the moment.

just one question, i do recall Atari mentioning that they were going to come out with 64,128 and 256k mem. modules for the 800, did they ever get around to doing it

Atari only made 8k and 16k modules for the Atari 800.

A few comanies like Mosaic made memory upgrade cards.

So i guess those jobbies on Curts site, never left prototyping stage, shame when you consider that the 800 also was capable of bank switching (d800 i beleive)

those prices are crazy... he said reasonable. 150 dollars for a 130xe plus shipping? I paid less then that when I bought one in 1986!!! I recently picked up a mint
condition 65xe on ebay for 5 bucks plus 20 shipping with power supply.

I think EBay is his best bet unless he stumbles upon one at a local tag sale or flea
market.

Hi

Bought my 800 at 4Jays. Check out the 8-bit page they have:

http://www.4jays.com/atari8bit.html

I think that page is a little outdated, better send email asking for updated prices.

I bought ab ATARI 800 on EBAY and I got burned so be careful whaen you buy anything on EBAY.

The 800 was packaged poorly resulting in severe damage to the 800 which made it unusable, there was a large hole on the back left side big enough for my hand to go into and a crack from that hole around the left dide and ending past the space bar and the keyboard sunk inside the computer but I saved what I coud from it before I threw it away.

The unit looked like it was NEVER cleaned and it had a dark brown tint to it from lack of cleaning.
