Keatah Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Next to impossible. max it out on epay for $700-900 or more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akator Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 The price for a factory sealed Vectrex varies based on box condition, time of year, and who knows what else. In the last year I've seen them sell from $300-$700 for a sealed system with nothing else. I bought one last year for $350 shipped with the sealed box in excellent condition and very little shelf wear. There's always one or two listed for $900 or more on eBay, but those seem to be unsold and relisted monthly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Wow Akator, you had a Vectrex shipped that wasn't drop-kicked in transit? Now *that's* extremely rare! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akator Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) Wow Akator, you had a Vectrex shipped that wasn't drop-kicked in transit? Now *that's* extremely rare! Truer words have rarely been spoken [edit] It only arrived intact because a factory sealed Vectrex will not fit into a bubbalope [/edit] Edited March 11, 2014 by akator 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a guy selling them BNIB on eBay for a while, don't think they went for more than $600 but I could be wrong. Prices went down as he kept listing more and more systems, but I haven't seen him list any in a while. I picked up a brand new spare vectrex for a case swap with a vectrex with a damaged case from him. Edited March 11, 2014 by TMOSteel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vectrexer Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 There was a guy (company) selling them BNIB in the newgroups for a bit many years ago. Also on eBay and other places. Some of those early sales migrated back to eBay from people flipping them. The highest I have seen a sealed one go for is $2K [uSD] But that was unusual! Also more than a few years back. A sealed, no-buzz would go for more than average. What's your serial number? A factory sealed Bandai Vectrex might actually fetch $2K or more. Each would fetch more if it came with the brown single-unit overbox, or the large multi-unit box found on palette shipments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayhem Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 One thing to be sealed, another to still coming in the shipping box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classic Pac Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 In all my years of gaming this is honestly the 1st time I ever heard of anyone having a sealed vectrex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianoid Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 A bunch have come up on eBay in the last few years. One vendor in the midwest sold several in the $300-$600 range if I rrecall. One guy most recently had one up that was from that lot that he sold for something on the upper end of that range. I do want one that is confidently sealed.
