hero2billions Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Anyone know anything about this? Why does it sell for 5000$? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I don't think it ever has sold that high. It is rare, but the typical price is $30 to $150. First, the title in the image is wrong. The actual title is "The Family Playbook for Intellivision Games" by David Hoye. It's ISBN is 0-8065-0799-3.Second, the image above is a placeholder image and is not the real one. Here's a larger version of the same image you posted and then you can compare to the real image. Here are 2 previous sales on eBay:http://www.ebay.com/itm/111133065724http://www.ebay.com/itm/221571842140 Here's someone who appears to be selling it: http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/BookDetailsPL?bi=96660429 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is only one version. The brown one doesn't exist. As for the blue one, I wish mine looked that good. I just pulled that image from a website. I suspect the image was cleaned up a little bit so it might be unrealistically nice looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfy62 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I believe you are right. Mine doesn't look perfect either, it has a small amount of damage in the lower corner of the book. Still in pretty damn good shape for being over 30 years old! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
