    A customer contacted me about just getting the joystsicks threaded and getting the ball knobs.

     

    I have decided to offer to thread the joystick and put the ball knobs on for $8 each, plus return postage.

     

    Here is a set I did for customer, he sent the joysticks in a small box for less than $2 sending them in a bubble mailer would probably cost even less.

     

    Here is a picture of them completed.

     

     

    I received those same knobs yesterday and all I can say is that my time spent on the Colecovision has increased tenfold. I received my copy of Pac-Man Collections from Opcode about a week ago and I played the game with another set of original controllers that I have, and I can tell you the experience is not the same. With the knobs installed I haven't put the two down in the last 24 hours other than for work or food, and some sleep. All I can say is that the knobs are so comfortable and responsive that playing with the Colecovision controllers for extended periods of time does not cause my right hand to cramp up and more importantly I hit new high scores. This is a great service provided by Yurkie and I recommend it to everyone. Thanks again!

    I'll pass. Thanks. Just checked out the prices. Over my budget. Thanks again.

     

    Jeebers Rice! Did you want the guy to give them to you for free? At least 75 percent of that list is market value or LOWER.

     

    Looking at Wicker and Brassard's price guide says that the first dozen or so I sampled in the CIB list are either overpriced (Dark Chambers by 200%) or underpriced (Robotron 200% less).

     

    If the argument is made that their price guide is static and does not reflect the current market value, then please post a link to a reliable price guide. I have found that Rarityguide.com just is not a reliable source of current market prices - mostly overpriced. Perhaps Video Game Trader?

     

    As a seller of games and hardware myself (mostly stuff that I find in the wild that are collection dupes like most other folks on here), I refrain from commenting on member's prices here in the marketplace. It's best to either PM your comments or refrain from commenting at all. That's just MHO.

     

    Although, admittedly I've complained of overpricing shipping is that is a pet peeve of mine. I'll do better to bite my tongue in the future in that regard.

     

    But, I just wanted to show that according to that particular price guide that the prices are on either side of the fence and I'll make that my last word.

     

     

    Sorry if my comment was taken the wrong way. The prices are reasonable. I just didn't realize how much I was going to spend to get my hands on a few of these titles. Should've PM instead of commenting. Didn't mean any harm.
