These are all hand-made and take over two hours to repurpose. Also consider the cost of machining and parts, as well as the time to gather & engineer the process.

Still lets think about this, ok an atari cart, like 1 buck if you buy in bulk. The parts I'll just say cost at most 10 dollars (sorry if I'm wrong) and two hours labor at lets say 6 bucks an hour. That only works out to a total of 23 dollars to make. I would buy one but 55 bucks is a little to much to pay for this.

One Question... Did these carts work, before being transformed into a wallet?

Most of them, yes. Out of the tens of thousands of games I've worked with over the years, 99% of them work with some cleaning. Yes, real working games were made into wallets. Out of the millions that were made, the thousand or so I'm using won't destroy the collector's market, but thanks for asking!

Each wallet takes over two hours to repurpose and it took years to engineer the repurposing processes. This is not mass-produced or foreign-made and every one is vigorously tested. You should also consider the challenge of accumulating nearly 1000 nearly-new Atari games and the costs of machining, magnets, glue and tools.

The magnets reside in the outer edge of the carts, nearly an inch from the card space and well beyond the reach of any lateral magnetic fields, as they are axially magnetized. The magnets are 1/16" x 1/4" rod magnets, grade G52. And thanks!
