Well, it does contain a fair number of rare games like Glib (loose) and Swordquest: Waterworld, Tape Worm, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre all in CIB. But I don't know if anyone'g oing to use the $2000 BIN. $1000 is kind of pushing the upper limit.

Atari games were featured on one of those antique shows and the jackass said the games were worth like $100 each and the system was worth a fortune. Right after that show went off the air, there were thousands of high-priced Atari auctions.

I saw that episode on Antiques Roadshow, they also said Beanie Babies will be woth hundreds of dollars next year . I guess I should buy all the ones at goodwill for a quarter and buy my house in a couple of years.

I do admit that texas chainsaw masacre would be nice.

After watching that episode, I never watched it again. Sorry, but it's hard to beleive anything anyone on that show says after hearing one of the 'experts' say that an Atari 2600 is worth $500 to $1000 and the games are worth a hundred each, especially Pac-Man because it's so uncommon these days. Yeeesh.

"I do admit that texas chainsaw masacre would be nice."

Not $1,000 nice.

The roadshow is run by people who have antique shops and are primarily interested in selling crap. If they can get $200 for an Atari console, that's $195 they just made.

Who's kidding who? Is there anything that 10 million were made of that's worth what it originally sold for?
