Actually my kids broke my 2600 and we got like about 250 carts for it, so
while at a ham fest I was looking for a 2600 cheap. I run across a guy who
had the Adam with the coleco modual, and the 2600 modual. He also had about
10 carts for the coleco and about 20 for the 2600. About 6 of the carts I did
not have and all were in boxes with manuals. He asked 45.00 for everything
except the disk drive for the adam. he wanted another 50.00 for that. Well I
ended up paying him 30.00 for all of it and was to get the disk drive off of
him as soon as I could get with him for the 50. (He did not have it with him)
He lived about 40 miles south of me. We never made the hook up though.

Summer flea markets and computer/hamfests are the best places to get them.
the last big one I went to have tons of old 8bit systems in boxes for like 25
to 75 dependent on what they had.
