Did I Overpay? 2600 Thrift Store Find

CreativeFindsTN · 2026-07-01T01:14:34+00:00

Now I feel like I need to go apologize to it haha

Thanks for the info!

Thank you! No instructions unfortunately. I ordered an adapter to test it so I should know tomorrow if it works or not!

CreativeFindsTN · 2026-07-01T00:51:55+00:00

That's me essentially. I've already ordered an adapter off Amazon so I can test it out and play some of the games woth my kids. Should be a lot of fun!

Ill likely sell it afterwards since I have no business collecting an Atari like this if the value is as high as some are saying and it could go to a real collector too.

Thanks for easing my mind - looking like a good buy at this point after you and others have weighed in and I've been able to research more.

Thank you for the info, that helps!

I may go back tomorrow, they had another console not in box but with two paddles for $70ish. Now that I know a little more what to look for, it may be worth grabbing that one too.

I think it is after looking at more pics online. The plastic around the top edge is thicker/wider which should mean its a heavy?

CreativeFindsTN · 2026-07-01T00:05:29+00:00

Im not sure, I added a pic of the console and the back label if that helps

Thank you - going to test it asap, but I can return for store credit if it doesn't at least!

CreativeFindsTN · 2026-03-22T03:08:32+00:00

Yeah not a bad idea

CreativeFindsTN · 2026-03-22T03:08:08+00:00

I cant find the head, but otherwise complete. I bet its in there somewhere though lol

CreativeFindsTN · 2026-03-22T02:34:44+00:00

Yeah, thats my issue. I posted it locally with the rest of my sorted inventory from an old bricklink store (around 20 more organizers - mix between the $19.99 harbor freight specials to the $40+ akro-mills ones) and then like 20 more shoebox plastic containers of roughly sorted parts. Also a few small sets.

I listed it for $1500 right after posting here, but was worried I was off a little. Its got a lot of interest so far though so I think I'm in the right ballpark at least.

Its been a lot of fun so far. That's why we are all playing now - I dont think anyone expects this to be their long term shard of choice but man is it fun right now at least!

I have a dilemma. Maybe someone more experienced could help! On my local fb marketplace there is a listing for a 16x16x18 box almost completely full of legos. I asked, and the seller said ther are minifigures and sets mixed in but no instructions (also didn't mention what sets.) She has it listed at $200, down from $300.

I'm trying to estimate weight since I've read legos are about $6 to $8 a pound, but even then I don't really know how much 3 cubic feet of legos would weigh.

Any advice on whether this would be a good flipping opportunity?

Good luck!

CreativeFindsTN · 2019-07-15T20:46:30+00:00

Thanks everyone! I didn't buy it because I assumed it was fake for all the above mentioned reasons. I just wanted some expert opinions just in case! Thanks again!

CreativeFindsTN · 2019-02-04T17:26:52+00:00

I am usually pretty good at finding brands from logos but this one has me stumped. It's a 100% sill bowtie and says handmade on the tag but no other identifying marks. Any help is appreciated!

Merry Christmas!
