Was wondering if anyone could tell me the worth of any of these. Cleaning out the basement and found these. Also found a box of late 70’s, early 80’s Playboys.

The atari is as low as $40ish or so give or take and goes up from there. There's also a bit of games for it so you might be able to get $75-$100 I'd wager.

The 70's and 80's Playboys won't be worth much. I remember doing a remodel job with a buddy of mine and we found a trunk full of playboys dating back to the 50's. Some of them here and there you'd get something decent but it was nothing extravagant.

For the sit n spin.... My guess is between $30-$50. But I won't be surprised that it'd go for less. Depends if you can find a person interested in the vintage toys.

Oh, the fun I had with Sit-N-Spins as a kid. But those and the fisher price houses you probably won't get much for.

The Sears version of the Atari 2600 is hit or miss and I think depends on condition. Does it have all parts like both joysticks and the one paddle they came with? That might be a selling point. I have my original 2600 and would play it regularly even up to a few years ago.

I never understood the attraction of the sit n spin. Stay in one place and get dizzy? Sounds like a gateway drug.

I, too, check Ebay for pricing when I'm looking at items at auctions or use a google search if Ebay doesn't have the item. Include the words "For Sale" or "Sold" in the google search.

If you do decide to sell them, clean them up as well as you can. Condition and appearance matter if you want to get the maximum.

About 10 years too late for the Atari stuff. Its not worth much now a days. Even NES is starting to go down. SNES and N64 era is the new hotness.

One game I loved playing and used to have for the Snes was Earthbound. Still worth a decent coin now. I do have a few snes games that are worth about $50 each.

I think the value dropped ever since they started coming out with the classics and other versions of these consoles.

The value did dump a little bit, but Earthbound is still north of $150 easily. People were just riding the retro gaming train and basically derailed it after awhile. I mean Contra was closing in on $50, and its a common game. Thats ridiculous.

Earthbound still had virtual console releases as well as before the SNES classic, and it really didnt effect anything.

Speaking of, I might list my SNES classic on here with a few other things soon. Its cool to have, but I took it out of the box once to turn it on, said neat, and put it back in the box where it sits on my desk. :rofl:

I have the NES classic, snes classic, and playstation classic. All of which I've received as gifts and all have yet to be opened. The playstation one I might just load up a bunch of other games to it off a USB. Either Sony just didn't give a shit about the security on the console or they botched the hell out of it. Lol

From what I hear, that things is straight trash. No power cord first of all, and half of the roms are EU roms, so they run at 50hz instead of 60hz.
