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.

The Perfect Holiday / Birthday Gift for that Atari Person

Best Atari Customer feed back:

All comments are spontaneous unsolicited Best customer feed back comments and are posted here with the permission of each Best customer

    

Harry H. of CA.  Harry did some research on the Internet and found Best was the place to get the new Best upgraded / enhanced Gold dot CX52 parts to turn his old always failing 35+ year old Atari CX52 carbon dot Joysticks into Best Gold CX52 Joystick Lifetime versions.  "Holy cow the CX52 upgrade kits worked like a charm!  The controllers are like new!  I can’t thank you enough!"

   

Nolan R. of Canada  Nolan contacted Best via E-Mail.   He said his "G" series Atari Jaguar controller was starting to go bad.  He said E-Bay sellers seem to charge over $100 for new Atari Jaguar controllers plus shipping.  We told him Best has seen hundreds of New Jaguar controllers sell for $59 to $100+ on E-Bay.  Not so funny we told him, yes some of those E-Bay Atari sellers buy our New "G" ($16.95) or "B" ($21.95) Series Jaguar controllers from Best, mark them up and resell them on E-Bay.  Nolan decided to buy a New loose Atari Jaguar Alien vs Predator game and a New "B" series (Best considers this the better made Jaguar controllers with Tactical Feed back on the JoyPad and fire buttons functions) Jaguar controller.  "I received the Jaguar controller and Alien vs Predator.   Both arrived well packaged and in great condition.  I've only just started playing the game but it's pretty fun so far.  The controller works great as well.  Thank you for providing these purchases!  I'll shop here again :)" 
           

Chris C. of WA.   Chris placed an Atari for some 7800 boxed Games and the Best Reconditioned / Upgraded CX24 Proline Gold Joystick.  One of the Atari 7800 games he ordered was Ballblazer.   Best told Chris after selling the new in the box
Atari 7800 Ballblazer games for over 25+ years, we are now down to the last couple of them.   All new boxes have dings, dents and crushed in sides, front / back of the boxes. 
"Just want to say as a first time customer (long time looker) I am more then pleased, the BallBlazer you said had some damaged I would not have thought twice about if you said nothing. Everything was better then expect with quick shipping and well packed.  Looking forward to placing more orders in the future soon."

     
Matteo D. of Italy.  Matteo contacted Best via E-Mail.  He said he had a completely dead Atari PAL 800XL computer he wanted to get going again.  After looking at Bests complete Atari Custom chip listing, he ordered 1 each of all of the Atari PAL custom chips used in his Atari 800XL PAL computer.  After being notified that his Atari custom chip order was shipped to him he said  "THANK YOU!  I can't wait to receive the package.  Keep up the great work!"  By the way Matteo had his Atari chip order sent ($10.40) to an US Freight forwarder (for Best's International Shipping money saving information article click on this URL) DELAWARE Zip: 19701 he had an account with.   A rough estimate by Best, Matteo saved about $30 dollars over the normal shipping cost Best would have had to charge Matteo to send his Atari chip direct to him via US Priority Mail to Italy.  "This is Matteo D. from Italy.  I just wanted to let you know that I finally received the chips you sent me.  Thanks to your support and the chips you provided, I was able to revive my Atari 800 XL.  I greatly appreciate it and wish you all the best !"
        

Daniel G. of MA.   Daniel purchased Bests new Upgraded / Enhanced 2600 Auto Switching power supply and a new Atari PAL 2600 32 in 1 game cart.  "I just wanted to express my satisfaction with my order and prompt delivery.  Your 2600 Power Supply has eliminated the wavy lines on my screen!  I have even done a full recap, 6 new switches (ordered from you last year or so), and voltage regulator previously but it seems like the cheap 3rd party adaptor I was using was the worst culprit!  Also despite being a PAL cart the 32-in-1 unexpectedly works fine on new 2600+ on flat screen."

    

Mike S. of KS   Mike contacted Best via E-Mail.  He was looking to buy 2 sets of Best's CX52 Joystick Gold lifetime rebuild parts kits.  "I want to sincerely thank you for your help with the new CX52 repair kits.  I now have two fully functional controllers!   This system was my grandfather’s 5200 and he used to kick our butts when we were kids back in the 80’s. Now my kids can enjoy kicking my butt.  The shipping was extremely fast!  Thank you"

        

Glenn M. of Australia.  Glenn contacted Best Via E-Mail.  He wanted to order a new in the box Atari Portfolio black carrying case.  He arranged for Best to send his Atari Portfolio order to his US Freight forwarder in Florida, who in turn would ship that order to Glenn in Australia.   This International shipping method, usually means a big end cost savings on International shipping costs.   For more information on this cost saving International shipping method, click on this Best URL.  "My Atari Portfolio case arrived today in Australia.  It looks absolutely stunning and I’m very happy with it.  Another great customer experience from Best Electronics.  Take care!"

                       

Frank D. of Germany.   Placing his very 1st International Atari order to Best.   He ordered some hard to find new Atari 8 bit PAL Custom chips.  "Happiness in Germany!   My order arrived today, great work.  I'm so happy for the customer" (he means Custom) "ICs.  Thank you for the quick work and shipping.  I will order from you again next time."

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

 


   

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 40+ 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@bestelec.digitalspacemail8.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.
