I tune in to PBS antiques road show (that TV show that
goes around US and
Canada towns and people bring their antiques to get them evaluated and info
on them...) tonight and there was a short (2 mins?) segment on Atari 2600
cart collecting and they showed some examples of sought after carts...and
some "values"...explaining this was very "hot collectibles"
And what were some of the wanted carts? Not that I will ever part with
any of mine, but it is always nice to know if you have something of
monitary value (although, in my case, most of it will be "I had that!",
since a "friend" walked off with most of my good ones years ago... kind
of like all the first series star wars action figures I blew up with
firecrackers in my youth)

Chase the Chuckwagon would be near the top of the list... If not the top.
