Serial Number on Lynx II!?

[DieselJ]

Hello. I'm new here, so hello everybody.

 

Now i've got a question... on my lynx II, there ain't a Serial number.. there's nothing where i think the serial number should be, and today, i checked some other pics of other Lynx II's and saw the same thing on other machines.. whats up with that? I bought the machine a while back in the box.. was it refurbished or something?

like all lynxes these had a white paper sticker (lynx 1s and some early 2s

had these),then the later lynx 2s had some shiny white and/or grey ones. these always tend to wear off with me and my sweaty fingers and palms

(the paper labels). have not had this problem with the glossy stickered

ones.

it sounds like you may have gotten a used one or something. i've not come across one without a sticker that was a new one or a refurbished

unit. the only other way of knowing the possible number that your unit is

to look at either end of your lynx box for a white sticker that is similar to

the one that might have been on your lynx.--the lynxer

Thank's for the reply. This means o bought a used unit then. It's in perfect shape tho so it's not a loss really.... I doubt tho that the box are the original box for this unit. I mean, if the unit was used, it's prolly not the original box either!

that is a possibility--it could be a used one that got tossed in a random box

-- i would think that the box probably goes to the unit though. a used unit

does not always have a box come with it! boxes for some gamers are just

some clutter laying around for them find a place for--a box for a unit is at

times (many times) or a game a rare item to receive with stuff. some are

not the true collectors that you or i may be--i've found this out over the

years buying up game collections! boxes are a rarity many,many times.

you're welcome for the response. if you have any other questions just ask

away or send me private message.--the lynxer

I have 2 lynx 2's.

I bought one brand new (still sealed) and it had a blank serial sticker. The other 2nd hand also didn't have one, but maybe it was worn off.
