As this is Kijiji, the seller doesn't offer anything else than local pick-up, and I live in a different province. If anyone lives near Milton (Ontario) and would be willing to go purchase and pick this up on my behalf, please PM me. I will (of course) reimburse all expenses. Hey. I am about 45 mins away. If you can arrange to pay him I would be willing to pick it up. Not sure how to get it to you. Canada post makes me nervous ever since they destroyed an Adam I bought from BC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rietveld Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Has anyone purchased this?

Could there be stuff not included anywhere else? Of course, but probably just some odd and ends and nothing as far as ColecoVision rom images or ADAM software images. Seeing as it sounds like you would have to download this collection, there is no time savings and just seems like a money grab to take advantage of those that don’t know better. Support these sites first: www.cvaddict.com www.CollectorVision.com www.teampixelboy.com www.colecoboxart.com www.adamarchive.org www.colecoadam.net www.diroccovision.com there are numerous other great websites and the above listed ones have links to them. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+GoldenWheels Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I couldn't resist, to me this is a hilarious piece of history. Looking at the guy's ebay profile photo vs a Toy Fair video, he appears to be the long hair guy AT Toy Fair with Mike. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, there is nothing new in this offering and even some rom images that have not been released to be shared freely. What we have here is someone trying to take advantage of people that don’t know better and I can only assume that this listing will be or already has been reported. Better off making a contribution to some of the websites that I mentioned previously to help them offset the cost of maintaining their websites. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Local pickup only in California, no one bought it. I was able to sell some of it by breaking it up into individual items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A package like you list that is tested (especially from someone very famiiiar with the system as you) should fetch at least $650. The only drawback would be if there are no local takers and you have to ship everything... that would be expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
