How much is the et atari game worth?

I found a copy while tidying the attic and am curious as to how much it is worth. The condition of the cartridge and book is perfect but the actual box has beenn squashed a few times. Also if someone could tell me the value of a atari 2600 i would be very grateful. Please don't say ebay thats not a value thats just what other people are selling for.

    The E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial published by Atari, Inc. for Atari's Atari 2600 is probably worth, $7. If that, The Game is known as 'The Worst Video Game Of All Time' for a reason. I've found copies of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial at old game stores selling for $7, that is probably all you are going to get for that Atari Game.

    Although having E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Booklet and original box may rise the price for collectors which is hard to say. I couldn't be able to tell you the value of a working Atari 2600, unless it's a collector I'm doubting it'll be much.

    (i know you said dont say) ebay, check the completed listings box on the left when you search for it, or 'sold listings'. this will show you what they have sold for.

    ET game, if it was in perfect condition, around $30-$50, as is, $5-$6 because of the damaged box.

    basic atari 2600, with cables and basic accessories, $30-$50, with extra's and games maybe slightly more.

    but it all depends on the day you sell, how you display it in pictures and the general condition of it.
