I have some atari game boards for sale. I updated my vaps and the prices are negotiable. I don't have the time or knowledge to get these games up and running so I thought I'd make them available for those who do. Games include:
asteroids
gravitar x2
720 degrees
quantum

Ok boys and girls

I've already been contacted by several interested parties regarding these boards. I'll post pics as requested tomorrow so you can make more informed decisions as to what you are buying.
Happy to see all the interest and that the boards will find good homes!
 
as requested

First round of pictures

boards all tentatively sold folks

Received very generous offer above what I was asking and I have accepted. All boards are tentatively sold until transaction is complete.
Thank you for your interest!

A quantum? Someone must have gotten a deal with no prices posted.

This makes it difficult to track prices. Can the buyers pm me prices so I can add it to my database project?


Yes all submitted info is added to db as parts pcb name price sold date price. I try to not add usr info.

I really don't understand this kind of transaction. You listed some super rare and very
expensive ($500-1000 range) pcb's on your VAPS for mere $100 each, and everyone
(prob 20-50 people) jump on this instantly and you decide to sell to some slick buyer that
gave you 2-3x what you were asking for and the lucky buyer still ended up saving $1,000's of dollars.

Um. Seller listed all pcb's on his VAPS as he indicated. What part did you miss?

Quantum was $100
720 pcb was $150
and I forgot what the other pcb's (gravitar & asteroids) were listed at, but I recall the range around $100~150 each...
 
Yes, more than 50% of the pcbs listed are "rare" and "desirable" but "untested" (and complete/not-complete). So what would you estimate was a reasonable BULK price considering the Noob listed them so "low"? :cool:

asteroids
gravitar x2
720 degrees
quantum

As long as the seller and buyer walk away from this satisfied, that's all that matters.

The vaps part.... Was that not apparent?

I still call bullshit
 
You didn't get what you wanted. Deal with it and quit whining.

It wasn't a fair "For Sale" thread/offer. I was the first to respond with I'LL TAKE IT
and meanwhile other offers kept rolling in until someone say i'll gladly pay $300 for
that quantum pcb since $100 is too low. Or maybe $500-1000 for all pcb's. who knows.
it's still a scam no matter how you look at it.
 
I'm a hobbyist

First of all I'd like to thank the members of this forum who took the time to pm me and offer their advice for the sale of my boards, I appreciate you taking the time and coaching me.
I believe I contacted everyone who who showed interest, and if I didn't it was an oversight on my part.
I'm very happy with the money I received for the sale of these boards. I made a lot of money, more then I expected. The buyer and I had a great conversation before closing the deal and he was very motivated. Considering I also made 25% on the dollar conversion I did VERY well.
I'm happy, the buyer is happy, I think I smell flowers ;)
These boards are almost 40 yrs old as you guys know. The buyer is assuming a lot of risk paying what he did for them and I wish the buyer well getting them working. In my hands, those relics were probably never going to get worked on or be worse off. The buyer also has room to make some money on them after putting in the long hours troubleshooting and restoring them to their former glory. I'm glad they are going to be back in circulation instead of my basement.
I don't even like asteroids...wtf is a quantum anyway :D
Gravitar, not a fan. You see where I'm going here hehe.
I'm 48, I know these games. I've played them, I didn't want them.
My bottom line here folks is that I didn't pay very much at all for these boards. My profit margin here was quite substantial. I'm able to get some stuff working now that I couldn't before! This is a big deal! Be happy, I am!
