RelliK111 Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 You lucky guy Your lucky I was coloring eggs at that time The price would have been higher for one of us. I know I would never open a sealed game but with this one it was going to be happening for such a rare box. I have been looking for a C64 ver of the box with no luck for almost 4 months and now one comes up and it was brand new, what are the chances . Anyways good luck with seeing if you can remove that sticker and let me know if it works. If you wouldn't mind I would love to see a before and after pics and I was wondering if the manual matches up with the Colecovision ver also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwackery Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 ...and I was wondering if the manual matches up with the Colecovision ver also Having owned both the C64 version NIB and the CV version NIB, I can confirm that there is no difference between the manuals.

I was concerned about the manual because the scan of the manual on Colecovisionzone seems to be very Coleco-specific not like some of those multi-platform manuals you see for other games, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember if I kept it or traded it away. If I don't have it, we'll know when you crack your copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retroillucid Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Just like I said, Tournament Tennis CV manual is different from the C64 version.... That make the cv manual even more rarer.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwackery Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 I have the C64 and the CV Tournament Tennis and they use different manuals. How do they differ? I'm wondering if the C64 one I owned had the wrong version of the manual inserted (kind of crappy quality control). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coleco_master Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Here's a nice lot ! ............... 42 boxed games!! eBay Auction -- Item Number: 150795705712 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Here's a nice lot ! ............... 42 boxed games!! eBay Auction -- Item Number: 150795705712 While there are a number of multiples of certain games, that still is a great price... basically $7.14 @ plus shipping expense of $17. I considered grabbing it for a friend as I saw it just after going up for auction and now I see that someone has thankfully grabbed it. Actually, there were a number of CV CIB lots that went up today as BINs and they are all gone now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartsfam Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 A boxed system for $30? I know it doesn't work, but it seems like someone would want to take a chance to fix it, and get it working.... eBay Auction -- Item Number: 140738523058 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColecoDan Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 A boxed system for $30? I know it doesn't work, but it seems like someone would want to take a chance to fix it, and get it working.... eBay Auction -- Item Number: 140738523058 I think if the box wasn't as torn up as it looks that someone would have paid 30 bucks just for the box and styrofoam and not care about the colecovision. I think the only reason it is still there is because It is not too appetizing to buy a box that looks that bad just to have a box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See...I thought someone like Yurkie, or someone who can service a CV would scoop it up and turn a good profit. The CV itself looks clean, and the controllers alone are worth $15-20 for the pair. When I first started collecting for the CV, I would have settled for that box and the foam, until something better came along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats definately possible but I would think there are less people that could fix it up and resell than there are that would want a good looking box so that factors in.

+Yurkie Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Ok this is not a ColecoVision and for that I apologize. I was just wondering if you guys find the way this guy layed a Vectrex on his garage floor to get all scraped to hell kind of freaks you out, or at least makes it look like it is a POS and not worth much. eBay Auction -- Item Number: 220999189026 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Loguidice Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 It would have been nice too if the disgusting hair ball stuck to the side front panel was cleaned off too. If the guy polished it up and photographed it decently, he could have probably gotten close to $200 for the set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why I had that disclaimer of "(if it truly works as stated and he packs it correctly)" which I know wouldn't be the case. I was making my comment as if it was in a perfect world. Which of course he wouldn't have photographed it on the concrete like that and would have at least wiped it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be floored to hear from the buyer that this transformer is working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
