mojotv67 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Can anyone tell if this is the Gatefold version? [EBay]121398389474[/eBay I would venture to say that it is only because the description states that it's the UK version and I read that = gatefold. Maybe someone can buy and report back??

Rev Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Yes. It is gatefold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Yes. It is gatefold. How can you tell? IIRC, the gatefold has more brown space above the title compared to the others. This one looks like it has more space. I usually can tell from the back and spines, but it's a front only pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+JasonlikesINTV Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I might have to place an order with them. I'm also watching a German CBS Lady Bug and a CBS Carnival. Might go broke on these sealed CBS games the be havin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing $650....if the seller goes that low. I was going to say $700-$750. If you want a precise guess from me, I'd say $725. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 It should be $350-400 I'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM_Intellivision Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 While I concur with cmart, I think it will clear market in the $475 range and could've been $575 if it had the manual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certifiable Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 How can you tell? IIRC, the gatefold has more brown space above the title compared to the others. This one looks like it has more space. I usually can tell from the back and spines, but it's a front only pic. It looks like a gatefold in the picture but I asked the seller if the box opens like a book or only has top/bottom flaps and he stated it opens from the top...sounds like a typical late Mattel/INTV style box to me... Someone buy one and report back, I'm sure we'll buy out his entire stock if they're gatefolds... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 eBay Auction -- Item Number: 121394847899 burgertime gatefold auction from AU. Notice the extra space above the logo, then go search for a normal burgertime. I hope this ends the debate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Rev is right about the extra space, that's the first thing I go looking for with Burgertime, Mission X, Vectron and Buzz Bombers, all of which are harder to find as gatefolds. That said, I have had experiences with this seller where I have not reviewed the version that was pictured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone buy one and report back, I'm sure we'll buy out his entire stock if they're gatefolds... It's Classic Game Source, so you can never trust their photos. They are a bulk seller that uses stock photos and a lot of what they have is former Telegames UK stock so there are crushed boxes, reseals and all manner of other oddities. I think someone on here got gatefold Mission X copies from them a year or so back, but they ran out of those and started sending non-gatefold as their quantity depleted in prior auctions.

Rev Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Yes, classic game source did a bait and switch on me before, but i complained, and they sent me the right one, and i never sent them the wrong one! I took advantage of their buy 1 get 1 free sale! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voltron Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 ... but ... but it still has its "Warranty Void If Removed" stickers intact. That was added after the fact by a seller. The number are not the same on the sticker, they are also of a style you find on Amazon. The warraty void sticker of the time are different. Also INTV corp was looking to cut back of stuff like boxes stickers using wht lables instead no more tradenames etc. So I think the seller added this to the cart, sort of like seller who reseal games that were unsealed hoping to make it worth more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voltron Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 oh well he admitted he added the stickers, i did not read that the first time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Teams Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Re: Burgertime, I asked the seller if it was gatefold and he replied "no, standard box". Don't think the picture is what you get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voltron Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Ugh. What a joke. This guy is a joker too. He is advertiseing it as complete collection but he removed spiker.

+JasonlikesINTV Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I asked a more specific question about Burgertime today...can they include a pic of the back of the box. Let us know what you find out, Rev. I managed to grab one of the gatefold Mission X games they had. Just need one of those Buzz Bombers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
