DeLorean 1,774 Report post Posted February 18, 2016 Any sort of 2600 is ok w you? Jr.? Vader? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rowsdower70 4,513 Report post Posted February 19, 2016 I have a Vader to sell, and would toss in some common games. If you have any specific game wants, let me know.I'm sure I could ship you one with at least one controller and all your hookups for 50-60 depending on where you live. I'd toss in some games free, of course. 3 Arenafoot, Retrogamer81081 and Justin reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rowsdower70 4,513 Report post Posted February 19, 2016 Guys, he's in Canada. Shipping to him from Texas is not fiscal. Any folks from the Great White North able to help out? 1 Justin reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Professor 1,939 Report post Posted February 22, 2016 Any luck on this? It should be pretty easy to find a basic 2600 in Canada. 1 Rowsdower70 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeLorean 1,774 Report post Posted February 22, 2016 I don't think you're gonna find anyone on here with a 2600 who is in Canada. I think you could find a good deal but you'd have to pay shipping from US to Canada. MaximumRD lives in BC but I don't think he's selling 2600s. Your best bet if you've got to get something already in Canada may be eBay. Here is a link to Atari 2600 consoles available on Canadian eBay: http://www.ebay.ca/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2050601.m570.l2632.R2.TR12.TRC2.A0.H0.XAtari+2600.TRS0&_nkw=atari+2600&_sacat=139971 3 Rowsdower70, Justin and MaximumRD reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well anyways, I found this one: http://m.ebay.ca/itm/Atari-2600-with-15-Games-/381561264365?nav=SEARCH I'll try to snipe this one and its from Canada. Also, is it safe to buy used Atari's that are untested? Edited March 5, 2016 by PotatoBox 1 Rowsdower70 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Should I take my chances and try fix it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chas10e 901 Report post Posted March 9, 2016 all the dust foam disks for the switches are intact (around switch under bezel) ... possibly meaning it has never been opened up before. seller seems honest about not able to test & what he recalls about it's last use (a dirty cart could have been the problem in the past) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
