AJ_Maine_Man Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 http://cgi.ebay.com/coleco-vision-game-sys...id=p3286.c0.m14 Is it because of the one special controller on the colecovision??? orther than that there are only a couple of games that go for say 20 bucks.

Artlover Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Maybe I'm outta touch, but I don't find that THAT unreasonable. I mean, I was happy to get a CV w/4 games for $50 couple of years ago. This is comming with 31 games. At the current price ($182.50), if you factor in the console value, the games are comming in at well under 5 bucks each.

Christophero Sly Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 (edited) Yeah, for a CV with that selection of games, that price doesn't seem out of the ordinary. Edited August 16, 2008 by Christophero Sly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holygrailvideogames.com Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 The price might be a little high but I am sure that there is shill bidding going on. 55 bids is crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ_Maine_Man Posted August 16, 2008 Author Share Posted August 16, 2008 most of the games that come with it are common. maybe im cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artlover Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 (edited) most of the games that come with it are common. maybe im cheap Common is a relative term. Sure, they might be "commons", but how easy are they to actually find? In my shopping around at the used game shops, I've never come across Colecovision carts. Plenty of 2600, some 5200, plenty of Intelly, but no Coleco. Hell, that CV I bought w/4 games, I had to buy from a guy that worked at GameXchange (the one there in OKC off McAuther). I was in there and talking about wanting to get one and told me he'd sell me his, then met him in the parking lot the next moring before the store opened.

jetset Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Brand new seller and a stack of (mostly) common games... That went WAY too high considering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemoncurry Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Definitely a shill bidder nibbling up the then high bidder's bid. 32 bids on this item, 5 bucks at a time. Only bid on 3 other items the last 30 days, all on items from this seller, in unrelated categories no less. Even so, ironically it was unnecessary since the shill bidder was outbid by two legit bidders! The dork even won his own Dish Network receiver, and left himself a positive the same day!
