+Psionic Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 There was just one up last week...it didn't sell. http://cgi.ebay.com/adventure-vision_W0QQi...1QQcmdZViewItem No question they're rare, but people want crazy money. Put one up with no reserve and we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buyatari Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I like how he says they marketed it wrong and it could have been a big seller. I guess he never played the thing. Its the worst handheld I've ever played. Its a HUGE letdown. I have a Tiger King Kong tabletop which is bad as well but for a system I expected so much more. LOOKS great on a shelf though.

bomberpunk Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 maybe someday i will run across one at a flea market or yard sale really cheap(one can wish right?) it's possible, it happened to me. $6.99 but unfortunately i was young and stupid. the sound didn't work so i took it apart because i thought i was an electronic genius. i ended up breaking it completely. mine came with super cobra. controls worked fine, but the front "bezel" was missing. i doubt lighting will ever strike twice in the same spot, so i might have to save up a LOT of money for my second one.

So do you still have it? I have a collection of broken Adventurevisions. I could probably use yours for parts. Jeff Adventurevision used to fix them. I'm a bit afraid, aside from cleaning and inspection. This guy in CO selling the new AV has sold several NIB ones over the years. He's really mastered the trickling thing.

mos6507 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I'm starting to think Curt's got the wrong idea with the Flashbacks. If he really wants to make money he should make a repro Adventurevision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with a small trickle he can't make up for the fact that the pool of big spenders looking to own one is pretty small. I wouldn't rank this one high on the videogame investment chart for those looking to break even down the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prodos8 Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Its sounds like he's down to the last one as he is including the empty cardboard shipping box, as a 'bonus' item, in this auction. If he's already sold two cases worth, he's probably saturated the market at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
