What's a good estimate of the value of this game? I've had a copy sitting around since the summer of 2006, when I bought it for $1 at a flea market, I just had a hunch that it was rare. Recently, I saw a copy sell for about $125 on ebay. AtariAge lists it as a R9, while our guide lists it as a R8. I was wondering, do you guys think I should hold on to it while it accumulates in value, or should I sell it now? I don't really collect Atari stuff and I don't even have a (working) Atari to test it. It's in decent shape, and I can also post a picture.

Glib really hasn't gone up in value in the past 7-8 years, and I doubt it'll go much higher than what it is right now. Strangely, I found 2 Glib carts in the wild here less than a year apart (this was back in 2000). Sold one for $125 on Ebay and traded off the other. Since then, I've seen several Glib carts sell in the $70-$80 range on Ebay.

Glib is one of those carts that's rare but there really isn't much demand for. It's just not as fun to play as the other rare 2600 stuff. If you can more than $100 for it, I say sell.
