prolly just grab a 2600 all the games i want are available for that, Thank you everyone for your input and yes i know ebay can be a crapshoot as i have bought to many items described as working that were half working or not at all my favorite is when you get a nes snes game and someone says pins cleaned you get the game and its clear they used alcohol and papertowel(litterally had paper towel chunks stuck in cart one time) or just wiped the dust off. thanks again everyone and happy gaming

Video Game Auction Watch / Atari 5200 with 2600 adapter how high should i bid?

I have amassed a small collection of video games and have most systems i want the only one im lacking that i really want is an atari(and a dreamcast but that not the point), well i have some $ and was going to buy a 2600 but here is a 5200 with 2600 adapter and some classic games seems like a good place to start kind of best of both worlds situation. Just wondering how high you all think i should bid i was talking it over with my wife and she says she thinks i'd be crazy to go over $150 but i was thinking $175-$200 any thoughts from the community of video gamers would be helpful thanks
