[Avenger]

so i went to this retro electronics store and i found my FIRST EVER Atari 2600! ive been dying to find one of these and i tihkn this is a pretty good dam first find



payed 100 bucks canadian for the lot...took all the dupes to a store downtown and traded them for games i didnt have...almost 40 games there...7 complete games...lots of manuals/cataloges....i especially like my "How to win at pac man" game...im farrrr toolazy to write out everythin there...but hell if you got a question i def dont mind answering

was 100 a good deal? i think so because its the only one ive ever found...tons of boxes and stuff...imo its a great deal

I really can't make out the loose carts in your picture but from what I can see you didn't find anything really rare. It is though a nice start for someone who doesn't already have an Atari.

Is it worth $100? I suppose that depends on how much you play it. The way I look at it you got a classic console and 40 games for the same price as 2 new modern games. You may have got it for a bit less on ebay but then you'd have to pay shipping on top of it.

Since it's Canadian dollars, you got a nice deal! If it was USD, it would be a fair price to pay. ^^

Yeah, I have sold similar bundles on eBay for 90-120 USD... so for 100 CND I dare say you did very well.

what's that huge black thing next to the system?

Nice find...I don't think you over paid if you really enjoy it. I've always wanted one of those how to win at pac-man books. Is it interesting?
