    Default Columbia Home Arcade

    Picked this up at a sale last weekend. Looks nice and clean. I don't have any atari games to test on it. Considering it works, does anybody know the value?

    Very nice find. Those are pretty rare as it was a mail order to club members. Congrats.
    As for price value, I couldn't say. Post on Atariage, those guys there might have a better idea.

    Here is one that was on ebay, with 20 games.

    None of the games are that rare, so the system is worth around 50 maybe. Just based on that auction.

    Nice find. I asked the same question on here a few weeks ago but I didn't get a definitive anwser other than that the guy on Craigslist selling his for $1000 was crazy.
