Ok today i went to a flea market, and I bought a big bag full of different NES and Atari controllers, power supplies and other what not. One of these controllers/gagets that Im guessing is for the atari 2600 (because of the 9 pronger male and female contollers ports) is really baffling me because I dont see anything in the guide that resembles it. Heres a description:
A little black rectangle, with l"Lazer Quick Fire" on it with a semi-cool space pic on the front. It has a little turn knob that has these positions; off, lazer fire, hyper fire, and warp fire. Also, it has a place where you can plug a controller into it.
My best guess, is it is a little do-dad that allows you to have a "turbo" esque firing with the atari (I dont have an atari hooked up right now so I cant test my hypothesis)...I could be totally wrong thou. Thanks for the help ahead of time...

Also, I found some arcade cabs for sale that were in pretty good cosmetic condition, I was just wondering if there is a website that lists what the going price is and what marquees and overlays go with them. Buying acades is something that I always wanted to start to do, but never thought I would get the oppertunity...and if your wondering the cabs were:
Marble Madness (the cab that I want the most)
Jungle King
Ring King
Mr. Do
Devestators
Racin' Force

Again thanks ahead of time.

(per Google)

Lazer Quick Fire!
Auto Fire Module that works with All Classic Game Systems that utilize a 9 pin joystick connector like the Atari 2600, Colecovision, Commodore 64 and Vic20. Has a 8 foot cord and variable control knob for adjustable firing speed. Save your thumb! Get one of these! They come boxed as-new and also work great as a joystick extender cable. U.S. 12 dollars. Shipping to U.S.A. included in the price. Worldwide shipping available, Please email.

Mr. Do
Devestators

I recently saw a Marble Madness in good condition go for $400, and a Mr. Do went for $600. I'd guess Devestators would go for around $100-$200.
