Actually Chase the Chuckwagon is (well... was) considered to be one the
"holey grails" of collecting and used to fetch upwards of $300-$500 several
years ago I recall one or two going for as high as $1000 at one point, they
are a little more common in collecting circles and quite frankly, a
cartridge of that quality label going for only $70 is actually a steal.
Around $100-$125 is the going rate

Gamer collectors seem to over spend TOO!

Serious collectors will pay top dollar for the last few pieces needed to
complete their collection, so this isnt a big deal.
Other collectors will just download the rom and put it on a cart to play a real atari 2600, while the casual gamer will just
play it on an
emulator.
Most of the "rare" 2600 games suck anyway,
its just something to put in
your collection case and talk about at shows with other collectors.
