Ataridroid Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Ok so I have an elderly neighbor who wants to buy a Colecovision to play as she used to play it with her son. She wants to relive that. I only have one, mine! So let me know what you have! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rey Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Sorry. From your second post you seemed stunned no one had posted yet so was just trying to help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 More and more people are holding onto their ColecoVisions as well as extra CVs due to the thriving Homebrew community... especially around AtariAge there just isn't much CV stuff that gets put up for sale/trade. If you don't have a retrogaming store in your area, eBay will probably be your best option unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I can see that, we usually have some for sale in the selling forum but none in months! lol. She can afford like $50, and I was going to give her some of my games, but I guess not I've got a nice, juicy F18A modded Colecovision brewing... shoot me a PM! Probably much more than she can afford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) You should be able to find a CV system on eBay for $50, it will just take a little patience, but for that price there probably won't be any extras included. The only thing is, will it be fully functional. So watch for Auctions or BINs where the seller states "tested and working" and is flexible as far as returns just in case an issue arises.

ColecoDan Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 If you can wait until October go to Toys R Us website. You can preorder Colecovision Flashback system that will give you 60 games. It will be around $40 which will be cheaper than any colecovision system and she won't have to figure anything out since it will be all new and things shouldn't break. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfive05 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) I have a nice original Colecovision that I would be willing to sell. It worked when I last used it (about 15 years ago) and has been sitting in my Grandfather's Attic untill now. I haven't had a chance to test it, has the Power Supply and Two Untested Controllers. No Hookups for the TV. I think I even have a game or two I could toss in there for you. $45.00 Shipped if you want it. I can post some pics if you want. Thanks! ~Jeff Edited June 2, 2014 by redfive05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
