If you are not selling why do you want to know what's it worth? Rare items like that do not have a fixed price. If you really want to know, the best way is to put it on eBay with a starting price of $1 and no reserve.

why you got to be such an ass, all the man wants is to know the current value of the cart.....

Probably because the sky is the limit with that cart, as far as its value goes.

Well, you got me interested. For anyone else that's clueless about 2600 stuff, info here (http://www.atariprotos.com/2600/software/pepsiinvaders/pepsiinvaders.htm).
So, if there's only 125 copies how much is one worth? Loose and with box? Someone knowledgeable please answer this man's question.

What's it worth?
To the right collector, an assload of $$$, probably.

Boxed or loose?
Loose, probably $300-500? Plus or minus $200 (probably not minus)?
Boxed, God, who knows...double, triple that?

I seriously don't doubt that. I mean, it's practically the VCS NWC cart in rarity, though we know that the NWC cart was made in even higher quantities that 125...only 120 have been found, though. So, while the Pepsi cart is technically rarer, it is less sought after/popular, enabling lower prices than the NWC cart.
Far fewer of the Pepsi carts are known to exist. They are also far harder to track, since we don't have a list of winners like the NWC finalists.
Ok, enough with the NWC correlations. LOL

Geez, what is it with you NES people. I'm not being an ass, i'm just pointing out that these kind of carts do not have a "current going price" since they only appear on the market about once a year or something. So far i've only seen a few being sold and the price is totally different everytime...

This is not a reflection on this particular cart, but VCS stuff always seems the dodgiest stuff to me to collect. A strange 125 game run with no label? And how about that tooth game -- in a styrofoam container? How strange. I dunno, all that uncertainty about how original an item is just puts me off. especailly after all the recent stuff with Air Raid.
Anyway, I don't have any input about the price of the cart, but could you post a pic? I'm quite curious to see it :)

Why are YOU such an idiot? There is no such thing as a "current price" ! For such a game!
What kind of answer did you expect "This games current value is exactly $342.56, thank you thread closed!"

While we're on the subject of Pepsi Invaders, how did people buy it? Was it a giveaway, did you have to send in proof-of-purchases from Pepsi cans (like Chase the Chuckwagon), or was it actually sold?

It was given to Coke employees I believe.

Loose carts are selling for more then $500 last one was $700 or $800. I forget. Go search the threads over at Atariage as they discuss value every time it comes up for sale on ebay. I have one somewhere but I haven't seen it in a couple years. The ROM is the give away. Its the real deal.

Great find! Pepsi Invaders is ultra rare, and thus quite valuable to the hardcore Atari collectors. Of course, that value will fluctuate dramatically depending on the buyer's bidding habits, but don't expect it to sell cheap as long as it's documented to be authentic. For the loose cart, I wouldn't sell for less than $400
As for rarest Atari game, I would have to go with Atlantis II...far rarer than Pepsi Invaders!
