Well, they were the cream of the crop Atari 2600 games - usually very well played. Take lots of grubby kids hands + allow 30 years to "set in".. it's no wonder. Also, there is the dreaded "Actiplague"/Actiplaque" which curses this brand's games.. that lovely glue motting deterioration of the labels. Even some never before opened games I have have been observed to suffer from this..

That said, it's nice to see another collector in the ranks!
