Was this a decent buy?

I saw just the box with no game cassette or manual sell for $205 a while back:

Not bad. These have gotten so expensive the last few years. I got to say they are the favorite part of my CV collection.

DUDE! You got Robbed! I feel bad for ya, so I'll take it off your hands for what you paid for it. :D

Kind offer, but I think I'll hang on to it. ;)

Yeah. I had a Coleco Vision growing up, but never knew anything about the Adam until many years later (we had a TRS-80 Color Computer 2 as our first family computer). I wish I had known about these back when Adam's House/eColeco was selling them. Even so, I'm very happy to now have Donkey Kong Jr alongside the Zaxxon I was able to get last year.

Geez! If I can find my Zaxxon box maybe I oughta sell it...unfortunately my ADAM decided to spin the datapak too fast and snapped it! So it killed my ADAM Zaxxon game, but I still have the box...If I can find it... :grin:

A couple of years ago, someone was selling all 3 of the Adam arcade cabinet styled boxes (box only):

Zaxxon box sold for $66. https://www.ebay.com/itm/-/252515589321

Donkey Kong Jr. box sold for $205. https://www.ebay.com/itm/262597312004

And the Donkey Kong box sold for $250!! :-o https://www.ebay.com/itm/262597323309

I used to see my Zaxxon box every single day as I'd placed it on my shelf,...Well the top of a set of bookcases dedicated to holding all of my CDs...I had some odds and ends figures mostly up top keeping watch,...I had some signed, boxed Micronauts and a boxed Eddie from Iron Maiden (The Trooper)...I think I vaguely recall taking it down at some point...Hmmm...I'll find it haha...

I guess ATARI games are very valuable.

 

Nope just stupid people asking even a more stupid price. I can sell used black comb for a million dollars if want to. An ebay price means nothing unless it sells. I sent an email to seller for $11 just to piss him off. I just stated he too mistakenly added to many extra zeros by mistake and I'd take his garage sale junk for $11.

 

My neighbor sold his Colecovision and a bunch of games for $10 just a few years back.

 

$10 is about right as just spent $5 total for two Skylanders 3DS games (from 2012 & 2013).

These look like the same low profile carts TPB used for the complete CV set he briefly offered last year; I think TPR picked up a set (sooo awesome).

So I just bought this one:

 

https://www.ebay.com/itm/173168057881

 

I emailed the guy and he said he never used them for parts, he said he just collected for the games and got this stuff as part of the deals. They've just been sitting in storage, so I figure why not take a chance. He also said the condition is not bad, no corroded battery compartments, no frayed cables. So hopefully just a bit dusty.

 

I picked up a non-working wheel over the weekend and figured at this price, at least I have some parts to use. And at best, maybe one of them is working and just needs some cleaning. But for the lot, the price seems pretty reasonable. Same with the Super Action Controller, I never owned one of these, so if it works, bonus!
