Some general background.......
The consoles I sell have been given a full inspection and tested for proper color adjustment, voltage, & capacity. Repairs were made where needed.
All adjustments and voltage parameters are in accordance with the Atari VCS Domestic Field Service Manual.
Units cleaned inside and out.
Cleaned switches, controller ports, and pins.
Checked and corrected any cold solders and loose connections.
From there I correct the orange trim with a paint that has been color-matched.
Then reassemble and give it a good polish.
If I list a unit with an original controller:
I disassemble, remove and clean contacts, then replace any worn-out pressure plates.
From there I correct the orange trim with a paint that has been color-matched.
Then reassemble and give it a good polish.
For games:
I clean the contacts with either alcohol or a deoxidizing solution. (If I have to use sandpaper, I do not list it with a console.)
If cover art is loose I will glue it back the best I can.
Outside of cart is cleaned with a multipurpose cleaner.
Several man hours go into every Atari I recondition.
I have been been a technician for the Air Force and in the private sector for over 12 years. I have experience working on Ataris as a hobby and for friends for 5 years, and selling them on eBay for over 3 years.
I'm saying this because I want you to buy with confidence that you are getting a good quality console. I guarantee my work with a 30-day return policy. Most will not make such offers. If there is an issue with the console you purchased, you can return it with in 30 days of receiving your console.

Notice: International buyers outside the U.S.A. and Canada:
Please take into consideration that if you are buying a vintage video game console that there are other costs involved. You will most likely need a power adapter from 110v to 220v and to match whatever is your wall outlet configuration. Also, a NTSC To PAL SECAM converter. The RF signal is different with different regions. These are the most common issues. Just please keep this in mind before you buy...Thank you
