One of the more common Atari Questions / E-Mails we get, do you really have that Atari part or Atari item in stock.  I have checked the world wide Internet and you are the only one that lists it?  I noticed that your that your Atari web page(s) have not been updated (bottom of each Best Web page has a last updated date) for weeks, months or years?  When we cleared out the local Atari Sunnyvale Warehouses here over a 10 to 15 year period, we hauled in thousands and thousands of Pallets of Atari Goods.  Some Atari items we have a lifetime supply of (hence why the Best Atari web page for that product never gets updated) and other Atari items have sold out fast to the world wide Atari users and collectors.

Bests Atari Hall of fame  A little background into why Best Electronics was started 34 years ago and a short list of Best Exclusive made Atari Products, Atari Upgrade kits, Replacement and Upgraded Atari parts Best has developed / produced in the last 34 years in the Atari business.  See why some of the Best made exclusive Atari items and stock Atari products we carry, even show up on E-Bay after they are purchased direct from Best Electronics and resold with a big mark up by E-bay Atari sellers!

 

Be advised of the Atari 7800 clone power supplies ($22.61 to $40.97) and the very over priced ($49.95 to $89.95) stock New Atari made OEM 7800 Power supplies listed on E-bay, all suffer from the same known 7800 Power supply design problems that cause them to go bad early for the last 25+ years and is one of the many reasons why Atari 7800 users are always looking for a New / Replacement 7800 Power Supply.  After 11 months of work, Best has cured these known 7800 Power supply problems with its New Upgraded / Improved / Enhanced 2018 Atari 7800 Power supply which costs less than any of the ones listed on E-Bay and has a better / longer Atari Warranty.  Read the Best Article on the making of the New 2018 Best 7800 Upgraded / Improved / Enhanced Power Supply

 

Best Electronics is releasing its 1st upgraded Atari product for 2018.  Read about the 10 month story behind the making of the Best Atari 600XL / 800XL Enhanced / Upgraded replacement Keyboard Mylar

              

After 12+ months work, Best Electronics is releasing another upgraded Atari product for 2017.  The Best 2nd Generation Enhanced / Upgraded Custom made Atari Composite Video Cable for Atari 8 bit Computers

        

After 10+ months work, Best is releasing its latest Atari Upgrade part for the 35+ year Atari designed CX40 Joystick.  See why Best went back to a 1982 Atari Engineering designed CX40 part to inspire its latest Upgraded / Improved CX40 Lifetime replacement part.

 

Where the average Atari company would of given up over a year and 7 months ago, looking for a replacement / upgraded Atari CX30 Paddle Pot.  Best would like to thank the hundreds and hundreds of patient world wide Atari CX30 Paddle users who have waited and inquired over and over for the last 19+ months about the status of Bests Super Pot search.  Read what Best Electronics went thru searching the world for a new 2nd Generation CX30 Pot vendor.  What sounds like a very easy Atari part to find, ended up being a very very long extended search (the longest in the 33 year company history) for Best Electronics. 

 

After over 8+ months work, Best is releasing its latest exclusive Atari upgrade.  It is a 2016 Upgraded / Improved / Licensed version of a bench mark / proven Atari 800XL 256K Ram Upgrade, 1st released in 1990.

 

After over 6 months work, Bests New and Latest Gold controller Upgrade for a troubled Atari 7800 Joystick (like the Atari CX40 and CX52 Joystick problems which Best has fixed) with a shaky past.  If you liked Bests CX40 Joystick lifetime Gold PCB boards, Upgraded Gold Lifetime Atari CX40 Joysticks and Lifetime Atari 5200 CX52 Gold Joysticks you will love this latest Atari 7800 Lifetime controller upgrade.  

 

After 8 months work, Best's latest 2016 Atari 1200XL Keyboard Upgraded internal replacement Mylar for an Atari keyboard with almost a 100% Failure rate!  

Here is a chronological listing of all Best Atari Web site Updates, Corrections or New Atari items since it went up in early 2002.

Angle H. of IN  On Angles very 1st Atari order Best, he ordered 5 New loose Jaguar Game carts,  a new Jaguar US Power supply and a new Atari Jaguar Tempest 2000 Audio CD.  "My order came today and I just wanted to say thank you and everything was packaged wonderfully!!! Super fast shipping, too!!! I appreciate the great customer service and your prices are great!!!  Thanks so much"

 

Steven C. of CA   Steven had purchased some of Best exclusive Atari Lynx II upgrade replacement speakers.  Upon placing his second Atari order with Best Steven said:  "I actually just purchased 3 of your Lynx II speakers a couple weeks ago.  Awesome!  Fixed my sound issue."

                                            

Stuart D. of Australia  Stuart ordered Bests, TT Touch keyboard upgrade contacts, Falcon Translucent Dust cover and Best Rev. 10 all Atari Catalog.  "I have received the order.  TT upgrade is fantastic, thanks!  The catalog is also a great read."

Follow up Comment:  "I have to say that over the years I thought I'd forgotten how to touch type.  With the TT Upgrade, no spell check, no autocorrect (and a little bit of practice) I'll be back to 75WPM quite quickly!  Much better than any keyboard I can buy today!"

             

David P. of FL  "I want to sincerely thank you guys for the two CX52 Atari 5200 controllers with the Gold dot revisions that I purchased from you around 2006.  When I received them they were great, and outperformed my original controllers even when they were brand new.  Around 2010, the Atari went into storage, kids were into their own systems and it wasn’t getting any fair play.  Now, my “kids” are young adults and they were feeling nostalgic and asked about the Atari, so I pulled it out of storage, hooked it up and the controllers worked flawlessly as soon as they were plugged in!  I feel this is a testament to the quality craftsmanship that Best Electronics put into both the design of the upgrade parts as well as the workmanship invested in the controller rebuild process.  Many thanks!!!"  30+ year Atari 5200 History has shown, if David went with the Carbon dot version freshly rebuilt CX52 Joysticks back in 2006, they would of gone bad after 4 to 5 years of storage.

               

John C. of OH  John contacted Best via E-Mail and said he wanted to purchase Best's New 2nd Generation Upgraded / Enhanced 600XL / 800XL Keyboard internal Mylar.  "I did the replacement mylar install this morning and I now have a fully functional Atari 800XL ... Your instructions were perfect!  Thank you for making this product, it was worth every penny I spent on it!  I also appreciate the super fast shipping!  Best Electronics is the BEST!!!"

Follow up Comment: "I've decided to place another order since I now have my Atari XL up and running."

                     

Tracy C. of NC   Tracy ordered one of the New just released (after 11 month work) Best Upgraded / Enhanced Auto switching Atari 7800 Power supplies, that cures the known stock Atari 7800 power supply design problems that cause them to all fail early.  "The power supply arrived today safe, and the 7800 works beautifully.  Thank you!"

                 

Scott S. of CA  "I want to commend you for your excellent customer service.  I ordered a keyboard mylar & power switch on Tuesday afternoon, and the order was waiting for me when I got home on Wednesday!"

Best Electronics has been Sold Out of the very popular Wizztronics Atari 8 bit Midimax MIDI interfaces for close to 6 – 7+ years now.  Not to use the over used “RARE” word on E-Bay Atari listings, the MIDIMAX product is one step more.  In the last 10+ year of watching for Atari items on E-bay every single day, I think in total, we have only seen one used Wizztronics MIDIMAX listed and sold on E-Bay.  Think of it, have you ever seen a Wizztronics Atari MIDIMAX ever listed on E-bay at all?  World wide Atari 8 Bit Computer (400 (48K), 800 (48K), 1200XL, 800XL, 65XE / 130XE and XE Game owners simply will not part with their highly prized Atari MIDIMAX interface.  With an inexpensive MIDI Keyboard you can now learn how to use MIDI Synthesizers, Drum machines, Write/Save, Play and Modify Music without the normal High cost of a normal MIDI system and Atari ST, PC or Mac Computer.  With the MIDIMAX MIDI interface, standard MIDI Keyboard, 2 MIDI cables and an Atari 8 bit computer with disk drive, you have a Brand New application for your Classic Atari 8 bit Computer!!

We have some interesting News on the Atari MIDIMAX product

Atari Flashback2 New Owners.  Did you know that there is an Internal Hack / User installed upgrade that will allow the New Fixed 40 internal game Flashback2 Atari consoles to use the over 400 to 600+ Atari 2600 Game cartridges?   It does require you open up (Break the Warranty seal) your Flashback2 Console and solder wires to the Flashback2 motherboard.  Best Electronics is listed in this article and the only one in the world to have the New Atari 2600A Cartridge Guide assemblies ($10, Limit one) in stock for this Flashback2 upgrade.

 

 

I over paid for an eBay logoAtari item!  E-Bay is a great place for Atari Bargains, but over the last 14 to 15+ years we have seen Atari E-bay bidders over pay for thousands of New and Used Atari items that have No Warranty at all, when Best Electronics has the exact same New Atari item in stock for less money with the normal Atari 90 Day Warranty (same Atari Warranty for the last 33+ years) and in most cases with cheaper shipping charges.  So when you find an Atari item on E-Bay you are thinking about bidding on, suggest you come to the Best Atari Web site to find if Best Electronics has the same New Atari item in stock.  Remember that not all of the over 5,000+ Atari items we have in stock are listed at this Atari web site, only the more popular ones we get requests for.  If you can not find it on this all Atari web site, send us an E-Mail: bestelec@concentric.net  The lesson here is, you should always check the Best Web site before bidding on any Atari item and do not get caught up in E-Bay Bidding fever or get caught by an E-Bay land shark trying to get over market value for a new or used Atari item.  If you do have a problem with your Atari E-Bay item you won and it is sold as Seller does not offer returns, you can come to Best Electronics to get the Atari replacement parts or free Best Atari Technical advice on how to fix your ailing E-Bay Atari items.
