  1. While updating my Web Site I found this image on my HD not sure where I got it from but it does show an Emerson system box along with a Warranty Card and 2 (what I think are system manuals) for the Emerson System, Notice there are no game numbers on the front of the manuals so I think One may be a system Manual and the other may be the manual for the games that are included within the Game System? http://fndcollectables.com/AUCTION_PAGE/SHIPPING/VIDEO_GAMES/INTELLIVISION/MISC2/italian_emerson_ves.jpg FND
  2. Well, this is the same one that was parked on eBay since August 23rd at a $199.95 BIN and it clocked out on September 21st. eBay Auction -- Item Number: 310243806872 So maybe this phantom collector will now jump on it with this even better than $300 deal. Are you looking for an argument ? I was just giving my honest opinion about its worth take it or leave it but I dont see your need to start an issue with me ? Having a bad day ? FND
  3. Just a word to the wise. That ACTIVISION TRAIL DRIVE STAMPEDE PATCH INTELLIVISION is a very good BIN at 149.00 I have sold that patch in the past at 300.00. Its for sure the hardest Intv patch to find and I am sure there are more than a few activision patch collectors in need of it While I agree that the Stampede patch is the rarest of the Intellivision ones, I am curious as to when, and how often, you have sold it for $300. The opening bid of $49.95 is reasonable given this patch's rarity, and perhaps some anxious collector would hit the BIN, but I'm doubtful. Well considering its rarety I have only sold it once about two or three years ago for that price and it was on more than one collectors list for years before that resulting in the high price. Keep watching because I am sure as soon as its seen by the collector who knows how rare it is it will be BIN'd that is if its still an option when its found FND

  5. Found these Emerson/Dumont Manuals sometime ago and Fredric helped me identify them with the Emerson/Dumont Warranty card pictured below. So if your a Collector of all things Channel F you may have somemore new items to find Looks like the Emerson Videoplay System had there own manuals here are scans of the front of # 2, 3 & 4 although these do not have the name Emerson or DuMont on the manuals they have the exact same design as this Emerson/DuMont Warranty card ( last picture below ) Here is an interesting clip I found on the DuMont Television history page "The other DuMont assets were eventually sold or merged with other companies. DuMont sold its television manufacturing business to Emerson in 1958, and in 1960 DuMont Laboratories merged with Fairchild Camera and Instrument, where Dr. Allen B. DuMont served as group general manager and senior technical consultant until his death in 1965. While TV sets and other products bearing the DuMont name continued to be manufactured by Emerson and Fairchild into the 1970's, it was a pale reflection of DuMont's former glory. Eventually, the proud DuMont name was retired." Having trouble posting the images so here are the links you will need to follow them to see the scans, Sorry ? http://fndcollectables.com/AUCTION_PAGE/SHIPPING/VIDEO_GAMES/INTELLIVISION/MISC4/1112.jpg http://fndcollectables.com/AUCTION_PAGE/SHIPPING/VIDEO_GAMES/INTELLIVISION/MISC4/1113.jpg http://fndcollectables.com/AUCTION_PAGE/SHIPPING/VIDEO_GAMES/INTELLIVISION/MISC4/1114.jpg http://fndcollectables.com/AUCTION_PAGE/SHIPPING/VIDEO_GAMES/INTELLIVISION/MISC4/emerson_warrantya.jpg
  6. One Year bump Got a little closer but Still looking for a few items listed in my first post (updated today 9-17-10) Thanks in advance FND AKA Dennis
  7. Cool, since mine was first in line its on the way Yes ? FND
  8. Not sure but I try not to end my auctions on fridays or weekends as I just figure most are out doing something and may not be able to be home or just forget. Weekdays other then Friday are my preference but have not done any type of test to see which are best, also check ahead for holidays that may be coming up and try not to end on those days or even during big sports games that may have peoples attention FND
  9. Remember the time difference, most video game buyers will wait to the last second do bid so being on the west coast I try to list between 6 and 7 PM my time that way auctions are ending on the east coast between 9 and 10 PM, not everyone can access the internet during working hours so ending auctions after they have time to get home will increase your chance of bidders being available to bid FND
  10. NO, its overpriced. Dont think its a good price even if it did not have label damage
  11. You Know Nicholas F. Talesfore I have emailed him a few times seems like a real nice guy, and very helpfull any chance you know Ron Smith would like to ask him a few questions but have not been able to make contact ? FND

  14. I have one with Rom's installed and if anyone is interested I would sell for 45.00 Also have a Spectra 128 again with Rom's for 30.00 PM me if interested FND
  15. Just read the Mother of all Condition double talk statments Auction Quote: =============== Condition : Tested but not sure if it works. Sold As-Is Box and Manual are in excellent Condition ================= End Quote I wonder what the test was ? Oh just to be clear this was a video game not a game system auction dont want to mention the auction number yet as I may still bid but fully expect the game not to work FND
  16. And the fact he cant find the Power Cord thats in the picture "The system did work last time I used it, but now I can't find the power cord."
  17. Could be a home made item like the one in this link, its a home made NES duck hunt Rifle. Even if its not they would make great items to perform the Mod http://www.dorkingout.com/archives/2005/08/nes_duck_hunt_sniper_rifle.php FND
  18. Years ago I did see a NES set or maybe it was a Famicom game set that had a shotgun it was for Duck Hunt. If we could see the Connector We could get a better idea
  19. They both look like Light Guns when enlarged I can see connect cords wraped around them maybe NES Duck Hunt accessories?
  20. Just got of the phone with Jerry (Gerald) Lawson and have some information on the Demo 2 it was indeed a Demo for the European Market and used as a sales Demo for the system. Also the System II was sold in some stores by Fairchild before the sell-out although only for a short time before turning it over to Zircon.
  21. Question has been forwarded, Looking forward to his response
  22. Good Idea, I have his address and will send a snail mail, hopefully his health has improved
  23. Oops I did not intend my response to sound negative I myself was trying to figure out what I was thinking BTW I started a new thread here about the Demo 2, Funny how you can see something over and over and then all of a sudden see something you never noticed before
  24. Was just looking at my own web site and noticed something I never noticed before regarding the Demo 2 Channel F Cart While looking at the Demo 2 PCB I noticed the imprinted writting on the gold ROM it has the writting "JERLAW1" would this not be short for JERRY LAWSON #1 which leads me to think maybe these were company gifts to the top Managment. Since one has been found here in the US and one overseas maybe the Euro one was given to the top guy there ? also noticed the date on the PCB is 11/77 and looks like the date code on the ROM is 7750 or 50th week of 1977 this would be during a high point date in there sales Here is a link to a large picture of the PCB Take a look and tell me what you think http://fndcollectables.com/Fairchild/Demo2/channel_f_democart_2_inside_01.jpg ============
