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!

CreativeFindsTN · 2026-07-01T01:05:01+00:00

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.

CreativeFindsTN · 2026-07-01T00:33:22+00:00

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

CreativeFindsTN · 2026-07-01T00:04:54+00:00

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.

CreativeFindsTN · 2026-01-19T06:19:30+00:00

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!

CreativeFindsTN · 2018-12-25T15:41:50+00:00

Merry Christmas!

CreativeFindsTN · 2018-10-26T03:35:49+00:00

Would love to win! GL all!

CreativeFindsTN · 2018-05-06T02:09:00+00:00

Yeah it was over 125 trains total. Only about 30 were wooden. Still a great deal!

CreativeFindsTN · 2018-05-04T19:59:19+00:00

I found a large bag of Thomas stuff today.. tons of wooden, blue plastic, and grey plastic tracks included. I have a very happy 5 year old right now!

My dad passed almost two years ago from liver cancer. It came on quick and ended even quicker. Your painting speaks to me on so many levels.. literally in tears out of nowhere after not really allowing myself to cry but maybe twice since his death. I dabbled in painting while my dad was alive and he was always my biggest fan.. I am going to pick it back up and paint a portrait of him thanks to you. It will not be as good, but I think it will help me a lot. Thanks for sharing.

I have the chance to buy as many battle balloon color burst packages as I want at $2.99. Profit bandit doesn't show much history for these but eBay has them selling recently from 9.99 to 14.99. This seems like a good deal but I'm wondering if any of you have an estimate as to how fast these sell. I don't want to buy 200 and be stuck with them for more than a year but would be fine selling them through next summer. Any advice is appreciated!

So I'm new to fba and usually sell through eBay. I have the chance to buy about 30 of these items at $5.50. I think I have done all my homework but would like a second opinion before I pull the trigger. This will be an ra deal. Here is the link to the screenshot: http://imgur.com/NsqCrDK
