+DZ-Jay Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 To be sure, nothing in my comment precludes the possibility of the post being legitimate, so I wasn't accusing anybody of fraud. I just wanted to point out that when a post looks suspect, it is up to the original poster to prove or at least strongly suggest reasons for trust, and not for the reader to automatically assume them. That's it. Carry on. -dZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+SoulBuster Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) One good way to the legitimacy of the item: Write your screen name and date on a piece of paper and take a picture of the item with that paper displayed. Some forums require it to sell stuff. Edited March 10, 2015 by SoulBuster 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 No no no, the only way to prove legitimacy is to steal underpants from the original Intellivision developer/owner and photo with the printer 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevil Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 OMG Jason that's hella funny because ....I actually could provide that pic if I thought it would help.... But seriously I am currently in negotiations with a buyer, and I'm sure we will be able to come to an agreement very soon... I think he (the prospective buyer) even stops by this site once in a while... When all is said and done I look forward to hearing from soporj... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7800fan Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 See if the OP can get someone's camera for better pictures. Maybe with a local major newspaper showing the date as proof the picture wasn't downloaded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+BBWW Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 One question, why would the Intellivision Keyboard Component have a white (Cream) colored printer, wouldn't they have matched everything else with wood grain or brown plastic? It doesn't have the styling of and Intellivision II and the ECS it's too rounded. Just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+BBWW Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Wow, cool, so non-Intellivision looking...who woulda thunk. I wasn't questioning the item I was just questioning why the color...I guess just better off the shelf parts to keep price down. or it might look like this ....

scalpel Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 here are a few pics... I'm an idiot and on a dial-up account so please excuse the quality Here a few pics ? I can see only one pict... and taken in 2014 ?? I'm sure it's possible to have other pictures and more information before a deal. It's a minimum. Could you post more pictures about your treasures ? Thanks a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Papa Intellivsion: The printer is a rebadged Alphacom Sprinter 40. So it's not just off the shelf parts. It's literally another printer. Never actually designed for the Intellivision.

Intymike Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 From Papa Intellivsion: So it's not just off the shelf parts. It's literally another printer. Never actually designed for the Intellivision. It was very common to rebrand printers from other companies to match the own products. Printers from Commodore were often from Olivetti.
