Anyone have room for a Tandy 1000 EX or Atari 800?

Tue May 15, 2012 12:07 AM

Looking to save up some money for a phone replacement. My current one has had a cracked screen since Christmas and now the LCD and speaker are starting to have problems.

Anyways I haven't really kept up on prices recently. I kind of know what 800s are going for, but I'm honestly a bit clueless on the Tandy especially since I haven't seen any go on ebay. So really just shoot me an offer for what you think is fair. =)

Atari 800 -
Tested with a copy of Congo bongo and working. Does not have a power supply included unfortunately becuase it is my only and I need it for my other computers.The break button on the keyboard is kind of finicky though. It's there and still functions, but it's quite stiff and falls off easily.

Tandy 1000 EX -
Powers on and outputs to the TV, but I have no software or DOS for this so I can't test it any further than I have. So it is being sold as-is, but possibly fully working.

If you have any questions feel free to ask! =)

FS: Mario Bros. Colecovision with Mario Bros. Controllers

Might be wondering why in the world I would want to sell this magnificent set, but recently my 1 1/2 year old Sharp LCD TV bit the dust which couldn't have come at a "more perfect time" right after I acquired this:

This is when it was all taken apart and applying new artwork and making it look like new. It's almost finished now! I might post some pictures when it's done. :D

Since I'm in need of a new TV now (the only spare one I have is a 19" CRT with only coax input...) I feel these will help me out, and somebody who doesn't have the game can really enjoy a true masterpiece with some amazing controllers! :)

Everything on the controllers and game is flawless except for anything that was wrong when I received it. On the box for the game the left side is coming up a little bit, but it was like that when I got it. If you have a little dab of glue it would be fine.

As for a price, PM or post an offer here. I will not separate the game from the controllers unless two people can agree to buy each item at the same time. If anyone has any questions or would like more pictures feel free to ask. I probably would have liked to keep the set, but my PS3 just does not look good on a 19" TV over coax. :sad: In the end though I feel everyone will win since I'll have my favorite arcade machine from my childhood. Now if only it was in an ice cream shop it'd be perfect. =P
