The Best Place to Buy and Sell Atari 800 Computers
The Atari 800 debuted in November 1979 as Atari's flagship home computer, built around the MOS Technology 6502 processor and loaded with custom coprocessors for graphics and sound that were well ahead of the competition. With four joystick ports, two cartridge slots, and a solid full-stroke keyboard, the 800 was a powerhouse for its time. Star Raiders alone was enough to sell systems. The entire Atari 8-bit family has a dedicated collector following today, from the original 400 and 800 through the XL and XE series. If yours has been sitting in a box in the garage, there's a good chance someone is looking for it right now. Visit a PayMore Store to find out what yours is worth.

Enjoy Peace of Mind
Expert Evaluation You Can Trust
At PayMore, we know the difference between an early CTIA-equipped Atari 800 and a later GTIA model. We understand why a complete-in-box 1200XL can fetch a premium despite its short production run, and we know which cartridge titles collectors are chasing. Every system gets a thorough, informed evaluation based on real market data. You get a fair price, no matter what shape your system is in.
Get The Most For Your Trade-In
The best way to maximize your payout is to bring everything. Power supplies, RF adapters, joysticks, floppy drives, cartridges, cassettes, and especially original boxes and manuals all add value. If you have a complete setup with disk drives and a printer, bring the whole kit. Collectors love complete systems. You can also choose store credit instead of cash for even more value, and put that credit toward anything in our store.
Buy. Sell. Trade. Recycle.
