I just got an Atari 2600 Junior (rainbow) console bundle, but I need a lot of stuff before I can play it. I need to locate the following...

AC Adaptor
Phono Cord/Switchbox
Joysticks
Paddles

I am only interested in Atari brand items. No third party stuff please.

I've got the ac adaptor and switch box but they appear to be third party. I'm looking for joys and paddles, but pretty sure I have those and they are atari.

Forgot to mention I also have a ton of game doubles/triples if your looking for any.

do you actually need the switch box? or does that one have the cable also coming out of it that you can use a RCA to Coax adapter on?

I use one of those $2 adapters on my Colecovision, 2600, 7800 and Intellivision.

This version of the 2600 doesn't have the phono cord coming out of the back of the system. I have a phono to RF adapter already. I am planning to hook this up to my woodgrain 13" RCA XL100 that has the gangster antenna screws. I want this set-up to be proper old school.
 
Got my AC adapter and I got a phono male to coax female adapter for the video. Still need 2 joysticks and a pair of paddles.
 
Good luck getting some nice ones for $20 shipped for everything...

At what point in my post did I say I wanted brand new, rebuilt, restored joysticks and paddles??? Your post is not necessary. I felt your prices were high asking $32 plus shipping. You said go ahead and MMAO. I made an offer. You declined. That's life. Move on. I just need working joysticks and a pair of paddles. Your reply here was just trying to make me look bad. It didn't work. I don't feel it is necessary to take digs at people so this is all my response is to you.
 
The fact was you offered $20 for what I sell, which you know are refurbished, not plain-old regular dirty sticks. Why lowball my already below market value rebuilt controllers when all you need are working ones?

You never stated in a message that's all you need.
My competitors charge $14-$20 for a rebuilt stick, and same for a pair of paddles and they don't have any options.

The fact is that your post on this thread was unnecessary. That whole conversation was almost two weeks ago and was in the past. In your life people will make an offer you feel is too low. In those cases, you say no thanks and move on. You may want to make a deal with that person in the future so you don't want to burn bridges just because a deal falls through. You also don't thread crap on them. Your remark was purely an attempt to cause trouble.
