Looks like it was a false alarm about the eggs too, or maybe a turtle ate them. I don't really care, not my problem. Flies today were great, best all year. Had dinner with cute girl who showed up a couple days ago, I think her name's Shelly. Ribbit. (7 comments) --------- Great post!

+thegoldenband Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Hey, thanks! Glad you (and Lathe26 & cmart) enjoyed it. I was especially proud of the Comic Sans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) Snafu is pretty rare, but not impossible. Backgammon is exceedingly rare. I only know of a few people who own one (Steve and I). Ironically, Math Fun might be the easiest to find on that list. Hockey is pretty rare too - I saw one on eBay a month or so ago. I got my Soccer sealed from Venezuela, but I think others did too so you might find one. Roulette is a really tough one to get out of the way. Is ABPA Backgammon really that rare? I have one, CIB, but I didn't know it was rare. It seems increasingly the case that the $250.00 I spent on my very first lot when I started collecting a few years ago, was a gem. I have a loose Soccer that I would gladly give away. Unfortunately I haven't unpacked since I moved last year. My wife insisted that it was temporary, until we bought a house, and I left all my Intellivision stuff in crates. I'll try to see if my loose carts are accessible and dig for it. Certifiable, send me a PM if you're interested. Edited May 19, 2014 by DZ-Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backgammon (not APBA version) is very rare. The standard Mattel APBA Backgammons are pretty common. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still pretty rare, I'm guessing. I don't have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have the Intellivision Inc version I'd hate to see you get all bogged down in variation collecting and would be happy to trade you for it. I honestly may have traded mine away accidentally.

I'll have to verify just to be sure, since I didn't know it was so rare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DZ-Jay Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Verification would be a great idea. It may be a while, my stuff is still in crates from my last move. However, given the rarity of the item, there is a chance I may have made a mistake in my inventory accounting. I promise to check, hopefully next week-end. I'm very curious now.

Fushek Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Interesting auction here ... Not only has a decent looking Diner, but also has four of the harder to find yellow Imagic manuals. Were those the ones that came in baggies? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1982-INTELLIVISION-II-Master-Component-Collectors-Bundle-47-Games-Joysticks-/251536096652?pt=Video_Games&hash=item3a90b83d8c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrbee Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) Looks like there are a few Intellivision, Inc. variants in there, and that Triton catalog is nice. I added pictures to the auction, including the catalogs that will be included. I tried to get some decent shots of the boxes so people can see what variations there might be. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=251533952240 Edited May 21, 2014 by rrbee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott9771 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 well all that variant talk gived me a headache and im pretty sure my copies r intv. ive sold hundreds and hundreds of these these past months. i know i offered up before but im not sure how to keep track of it. ive seen multiple manuals all different colors of same series etc. i have a few foreign ones. if someone wants me to look for something rare they want they should send me a list to look out for. or a list in a forum somewhere not sure if practical or that helps? maybe takes the fun out of lookin?......scot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what's going on with eBay and why the estimates are so high, and it's too late in the auction anymore to change things. But someone asked me a question last night and I responded and posted the question on the auction. Anywhere inside the 48 I'll send it for no more than $30. If I get shipping for less, I'll charge less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
