I think people are over-valuing the docs on this one, and no, not just because I dont have them =) Unless the signature is right on the paper I think these are not much more than a PDF file printed on someone's laser printer. Someone set me straight again =)

Wow, that Adventure silver box flat is amazing. I would love that framed on my wall, seriously.
What did you pay for it if you don't mind me asking? Of course I know it is not nearly what it is now worth. That is unbelieveably rare.

Wasn't much - he was selling all the slides and the 5x4 transparencies for $1 each if I remember right. On the manual layouts it was probably $3-$5. It was first come, first serve and I was the 2nd person to look over the stuff. I basically sat in the Best office for an hour picking stuff out until I was satisfied.
The Adventurer manual layout is probably the coolest of em all. -
I sold my Boba Fette for less than $1.
Also when I first started collecting classics I traded away a CIB Die-cast Yamato from Star Blazers(favorite cartoon growing up) for a Crazy Climber 2600 cart w/crappy label (grrr). I want that Yamato back!

Hey nice work! I figured it wasn't porn but I liked it anyways =D
Without knowing any japaneese, trying to play it was futile.
-
Put up some pics and description of a Japaneese import from 1996 or so.
Here is the only your springtime of life!
If anyone knows more about this game (like what it's name really is) lets hear it.
-
Yeah I noticed looking at it that I took that one backwards too.
I should really set up a backlight board to show these off better.

You can't really see the slides unless you look very close. You get the idea tho...
-
CPUWIZ showed a backgammon box layout thing (nicely framed btw). Here's some of the same kind of stuff that I got from Best Electronics. I have hundreds of the slides and larger transparencies (5x4) and if anyone's interested in some of these, I will bring them to the CGE. Anyways there are lots of large images here, browse at your leisure!

Yeah I'm pretty mad at myself for not bidding on the loose one from bfstats. In my case I already have a mint box.
-
Thats pretty cool.. I didn't know old computer games on disk would go for this much. MULE was a great game for sure!
-
riffraff: it comes with the first run of it as well. I have the original receipt, the letter, and the instructions from 1986 or 1987...mine is no. 4
Ok cool.. I figured if my assumption was incorrect someone would set me straight.

On Cubicolor, I own copy #30 but do not have the documentation. I am still debating whether I should get this one.This documentation was only delivered with the 2nd release of cubicolor yes? I have nothing but a badly photo-copied instruction page and, although I'm not the original owner, I beleive that's all it came with.
Edit: Also congrats to Decypher on this buy. Although some may disagree I think he did get a nice price on it. He is a nice guy and I'm happy he got it uncontested, but I would have bid against him if I were in a better spot. >

I thought there was a Sword reward also from Swordquest?
-
I think eBay was confused by the description and thought it was "modified" to play copies of games.

-
dude, can't you get another ash tray from the .99 store? =)
-
Yes, strange comment indeed. Decypher is the real deal.
-
so beautiful!

You got it in 2002 and you`re just now playing it?
Yep.. I wasn't really actively "collecting" when the CGE came to vegas.. but a friend was in town and got me to go to it, and once there of course I was amazed at the homebrews and other stuff ppl were selling (got the foot pedal, 2 Snow Whites repros, and a bunch of other stuff that got thrown into a box and put into the "storage" room). I just recently hooked up my 2600 again, opened the box and started having fun with the stuff. I plugged in Mr. Roboto and couldn't figure out what was different from Berzerk.. until I had this song playing in my head the rest of the day =) Also won Malagai in the auction there, still have yet to look at it.
Thrust really is an excellent game for the 2600. I'd give it a 10/10.
Now if I can get motivated to hook up a 5200 and check out Haunted House II...
-
the 1st (newer) auction is now gone.
-
Are you giving a break on shippping for multiple items?
Yes, definitely. I answered both of these questions in the listings but I guess people kinda gloss-over the bullets
-
Yes I will ship to Canada or overseas.. just expect a higher cost for shipping. And of course if you get several patches then shipping can be combined.
-
Very good deal. CTCW is not the "holy grail" it was once thought of, but it should be worth $75 at least.

Ok I didn't mean to imply in any way that the docs were not legit, just that the originals were not much more than a printed out letter. I haven't seen them myself so I could be wrong. It's not the same to me as an original manual or something thats all.
