Released in 1987 the Atari XE GS (Game System) was the console version of the Atari 65XE micro and the company's final 8-bit offering. The Atari XE GS -as was the trend with anything released during the NES era- failed to make an impression, even though it did try to bridge the console home-computer gap by offering a keyboard and a BASIC compiler. Find out more about it here, here and here.
For an almost complete (lacking a few cables and controllers, mind) XE GS with 4 games, manuals and keyboard, do try this Atari XE GS eBay auction. Seller ships to US, Canada, Germany, Australia and New Zealand. Though I really can't be sure on XE GS prices, the general consensus is that the average console sells for 60$/40 euros.
