Atari CX2600 'Heavy Sixer' Console *RARE* Sunnyvale Stamped Lid 1977

Description: Vintage Arcading The Legend… For your consideration is a beautiful and excellently functioning Atari CX2600 Heavy Sixer console. Produced from late 1977 to mid 1978, the 'heavy' nickname stems from the nearly half inch thick plastic bottom that doubled as an RF shield and gave these early versions impeccable reception (and an extra pound of weight!) Everything about the first year models was quality, and it is very noticeable. From the robust ruggedness to the smooth action of the switches themselves, it's no wonder these models are highly sought after by retro gaming collectors. This auction is for the console only, and it is tested and everything functions as it should and is all original. This particular console is beautiful inside and out, complete with original inspection paper taped to the RF shield. Color, sound and RF signal have been calibrated, switches have been cleaned and lubed. Picture and sound quality are unbelievable. RF cord in excellent condition. Faux woodgrain nearly perfect, this is a REALLY nice example of a heavy sixer. Has the elusively collectible stamped "Property of Atari Inc., Sunnyvale CA" on the underside of the lid. These units are getting difficult to find in this amazing condition. Made in the U.S.A. The following has been performed on this unit...· Thorough cleaning inside and out of console, including the contacts in the game cartridge slot.· Reflowed cold solder joints, notably on joystick port plugs.· Cleaned all switch contacts and relubricated switches in console, aluminum switch posts polished. · Calibration of color, sound and RF signal in console.* Functionality of all switches and plugs tested. The Vintage Arcading difference...My consoles have a lot done behind the scenes so that you have a solid system that functions correctly. Far more than "tested and working", I test each reconditioned console on three different televisions of varying ages and manufacturers that I own to ensure the best picture quality and functionality. Picture quality will vary with television and setup. Keeping in mind that many customers prefer originality, any component that is replaced or "touched up" will be noted.About myself…I have experience in electronics repair, at one time troubleshooting and repairing studio deck and camera equipment for television stations from around the country in the early 2000’s before everything went digital. I take pleasure and enjoyment working on these Atari’s, and each bundle or console that I list has many man hours involved to make sure that it will last a long time. My asking price may be slightly higher than other comparable auctions, but you can rest assure that you are getting a rebuilt machine and components that will work and endure. I personally own and play several systems and treat each one that I sell as if I were reconditioning it for myself. My young son also aids in testing each system 😉, if anyone can find a flaw, he can. Refund Policy… If I say it works, then it has to work...my guarantee and Ebay's money back guarantee. If you have an issue upon receipt, contact me and I will do everything that I can to make it right or your money back upon return of the item. I want you to purchase with confidence. Shipping... *International buyers, this is an NTSC system, please make sure you have the proper setup.* Choose between USPS Priority Mail or USPS Ground Advantage.
