    It's a little box for Jaguar that gives you high quality video and network hookups on it, I think.

    Jaguar isn't deserving of high quality video.

    If you have a jaguar sytem get the catbox it is fantastic. I bought mine some years back from a former Atari software engieer and it is great.

    They were worth a lot more a while back, but they're not that great. Back in the day they were the only way to get networking running with more than 2 players, but this has long since been addressed and now they're just collector's items. I wouldn't pay more than $75 for one.

    Shit, if only I had some money right now, I'd snap one up.

    But Stone's right...$150 is far too much at the moment for one.

    $150 is the average price now a days. I've never seen a Catbox go for under a hundered let alone $75. Interestingly enough there is a guy selling two Catboxes on ebay right now for a lot more more than what I'm asking. He also says you'll never see two of them for sale at the same time...lol.

    I'm also considering selling my M2 collection. Might put it up on ebay soon.

    Your price is definitely fair and the going rate. The auction that is up right now is a bit on the high side. Since the Scatbox release the Catbox has lost value. Heck, before that it would sell in the $300+ range.... Crazy!

    You're paying for the case though. To totally duplicate the functionality of a Catbox you could sort something out for $60 tops, it just wouldn't look so pretty. Not that I'm trying to shit in your cornflakes or anything, I just don't see why people still pay such silly money for them...

    I guess it's the same collector mentality as a copy of a beta vs. an original. The original is always worth more. ;)
