retroillucid Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Ok, it always seemed like it was but the usa address made me think maybe it was a middle man helping you guys. Personally I am not complain on this 1. If someone wants to pay $1800 for a sealed wizmath then good for toby. It certainly has to be extremely rare. I did think the other ones that broke 1000 were also sealed though. If he got 1800 I think that's a new record for a standard coleco release Personally, I would never pay that kind of price for ANY videogames But there's always those crazy collectors who need to have it all ..... Yeah, that's probably the highest price ever paid for a CV release, but at least that's for the rarest one 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumbai Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Not sure why people are complaining honestly I don't think anyone was complaining about the attempt as much as amused by the pricing posted for the WizMath NIB listing, given that an $1800 ask with "or best offer" attached cannot be read as anything but a fishing expedition. Nothing inherently wrong in that; it is what it is. However, I do feel for whomever bought (on a BIN) the Steamroller that was co-listed by this seller, as it appears to have been missing the separate scoring card insert, which was not disclosed in the listing itself. If so, omissions like that by sellers who know better are a little off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bmack36 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 To be fair, the listing for steamroller wasn't listed as complete and had the what you see is what you get in the description. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumbai Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) To be fair, the listing for steamroller wasn't listed as complete and had the what you see is what you get in the description. In my opinion, that isn't fair to potential buyers when (in this case) I'm fairly certain that the seller in question knows it's missing from what is being offered. But that's just my opinion.

Besides the Xonox Double-Ender CIB , I don't see any CV titles as rare as WizMath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stupus Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I think super sketch is probably more rare. But some might consider it hardware more than a game title... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specifically, SL/RH and MR/TB. I think super sketch is probably more rare. But some might consider it hardware more than a game title...

Tkat5200 Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Not that I would ever defend this twat. But no, technically this version is now permanently out of print. Now that Eduardo has announced that the 3rd run and future runs will not come in a coleco style box and may have other changes too. So this has turned this early version into something more special now... Ahh.,..i'm hoping the version Ed is resending me (he sent mine to my new house before I moved and the old tenant took it) is with the coleco box..otherwise ...I don't want it.

ValkerieSilk Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Anyone know if these are original 1980's, or recent ... Seller says "i have been trying to figure out the same thing.. it does not have a date on it and it was produced by american tote bag international under license.

mumbai Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Seller says: "t was produced by american tote bag international under license." ...and evidence of this statement by the seller is what exactly?

Bmack36 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Great idea to undercut Fred by putting a legit copy of the game on ebay at low price. maybe this will slow down the money he has been raking in with his forgeries. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ColecoVision-Galaga-Coleco-vision-CBS-SGM-/262524605152?hash=item3d1faf92e0:g:IwAAAOSw2GlXFZuO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember them selling this as a loose cart, won't that confuse bidders just as much as his? How can you prove this one's not just another boot?

Bmack36 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 I am pretty sure (and correct me if I am wrong) that is Toby posting it, so I am confident it would be legit. I would think the idea is to sell as just a cart to keep the price extremely low for the longest amount of time so it doesn't go over Fred's BIN price to prevent the bootleg from selling at the higher price. (above is just speculation on my part) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmack36 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) New Alias account for Fred? Seems to be selling all of Fred's go-to bootlegs with same descriptions and pictures http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dragons-Lair-super-Game-Megacart-Super-game-Module-ColecoVision-ADAM-/152167421869?hash=item236de297ad:g:MVMAAOSwGXtXh8pV Also same town.
