+JasonlikesINTV Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Pretty much what JoeM said. Truckin and Tropical Trouble usually sell for a minimum of $30 each, but are hard to find in good condition. Price goes up fast when these have nice boxes. Even more so with DK Jr. It's rare enough to even find complete, but people pay a lot when it's that nice. I have seen mint DK Jrs go for $60-80. The entire lot was packed with upgrades.

+SoulBuster Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I have to agree, the boxes on the Colecos look VERY nice. Even the tops still look new. Tough to find in that condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy_Whelan Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Wonder if the "hidden" sides look as good. With only the 1 picture the buyer is hoping that the box bottoms, backs, fronts, and other sides look good. Also no idea about the condition of the games, manuals, and overlays. Seemed like a gamble to me. Hopefully it paid off for someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austodd Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Does anyone have any idea why this one went for $134? I don't think that there are that many games in the lot that make it worth that much. I was bidding on it for the DK Jr before it got out of hand. Isn't that the rarer of the Truckin' boxes with the IM 7607 sticker on the spine? Maybe that's why? Also, Truckin' goes for about $56, Tropical Trouble $30, DK JR $34, Swords & Serpents $14 and Mouse Trap $12. That's $146 right there, so I don't think the price was too bad. Not a bargain, but not a rip-off either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+intvsteve Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 So, to derail this slightly... are there some Truckin's *without* the sticker, but *with* the correct number? I can't remember, to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeM_Intellivision Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Truckin went over my head a bit - are there 3 different boxes now? I knew there was 2 different versions but can't check at moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you win that $20 CIB Zaxxon earlier today? I thought about it, but I didn't need it. DK Jr isn't super rare, but not common either. It's pretty hard to find in mint condition and can sell high if the box is nice. Lots of folks have worn boxes on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intvsteve Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 DKJr is kinda tough to find, but actually well worth it. IMO they did a decent job with that - light years better than DK. As to Smurfs and Cosmic Avenger - I don't think they ever got farther than those pictures and some flyers. Though who knows what kinds of stuff is out there waiting to be discovered. Someone on another thread posted a video done BITD about Imagic and you can see someone playtesting Wing War for Intellivision. That implies there was a ROM of some kind at one point, but AFAIK it hasn't leaked out into any collections yet. Suppose it could be lost. Bummer.

mojotv67 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 This Red Box Space Armada went for waaay higher than I expected... methinks somebody overpaid, even if the box looks to be in good shape. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Space-Armada-CIB-Boxed-Copy-/121314471642?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=fVNtt68HyMmwR1wES3iTLaq3liM%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I considered paying $15, for a total of around $30. If someone in Canada bought it, shipping may have been cheaper.

+JasonlikesINTV Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) I'm the one that bought the sets of overlays from intvlondon on ebay last year. I'd never seen Roger's overlays up for sale so I decided to get the ones from overseas instead. The only ones I've noticed with the splintered backing are the Coleco Turbo overlays, otherwise the quality seems very nice...but I'm not actually using them or anything... I have Super Pro Football and Super Pro Basketball overlays left over if anyone is interested in them, I get a pic up shortly- http://atariage.com/forums/topic/215948-orphan-overlays-real-or-copies/?p=2817015 Look what I found I was checking to see if you bought Smurf Rescue Edited April 13, 2014 by JasonlikesINTV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
