    Actually I have seen them come up non stop on ebay for the last month or so. It is like there is a run of people selling their Adam Computers.

     

    There might still be some available but I don't really follow Adam computer so don't know if they were bid or buy now.

    Here is a direct link to the Squish em Sam but it also has almost all the other games as well. He doesn't put Telegames on there though so I guess you would have to find those pictures elsewhere.

    By the way if you click on the pictures then they bring up better pictures and also for the manual it brings up the pdf for it.

    All I know is I hope this doesn't turn into another stupid Rom situation. I gotta say I love your work and I love my Jeepers Creepers Box.

     

    If people you sold or gave boxes to sell there stuff they should be nice enough to you and the potential purchasers to just say in the description that this game is with a Homebrew Box from Pixelboy.

    Here is the answer I received

     

    The tiny boxes were made for the only 'official' release. A handful of these large boxes were later made for a special release, which match the size of the original CV boxes. Not more than a few are in existence, that I know of, and most belong to the producer, game designer & box designer. I hope this helps and GOOD LUCK!

     

     

    So don't know if that was what he was told when he bought it or he is a friend of Philipp Krause or whoever the producer is. I assume by this quote that Luc gave boxes to the producer and Philipp and himself :)

     

    So unless it was one of your friends that you gave an extra to then Philipp or the producer must have given him one of their extras.

    I bet the guy is making the whole thing. Look for remakes on all the CIB homebrews if he makes money on this one. People got pissed about the roms...now it looks like we have counterfeit homebrew CIBs!

     

     

    yeah I guess your right if they make a lot of money then I guess it could be them because it would be worth it for them to make extra boxes and then go get the games.

     

    However if the standing $55 is all he gets then that would not be enough since to buy the game it is like $35 or something isn't it. So he would not really be making much money if anything since I am sure he didn't produce 100 boxes.

    I was wondering how that guy got a full box when mine is this little tiny box. :(

     

    It is still not right to sell it this way. I would have put in the description that it was a Pixelboy homebrew box :)

     

    It is kinda misleading because I thought wow maybe the original release had a full size box.

     

    I doubt it would be where his boxes are produced because the guy says the one in the picture is an example of his box and the one you would get would be a sealed box.

     

    The guys making the boxes would actually bother to buy the games to do this ?

    I haven't played this in a long time.

    As a matter of fact I remember this game was always the first one to have problems when my colecovision was starting to die on me. I always had to reset a ton to get rid of the bad graphic artifacts being created. :(

     

    Now that I have the referb colecovision I will have to try it out again and see how far I can get.

    I just wanted to give the people at atariage the first heads up since I am always paying attention to ebay

     

    Super Sketch Colecovision which I have never seen on ebay is available.

    I was lucky enough to find one already otherwise I would have kept this to myself. ;)

    It is kinda ment for young kids to play around and draw pictures on the screen but I am sure collectors like me that want every game CIB would want it as well.

    Not sure about price but the one I got was not as good of shape as this one looks like and it was around 300.

     

    Anyway just thought I would let you guys know

    I think I pretty much agree with the prices above you might get more, you might get less depending what people want when you put them for sale and how good of condition they are in.

     

    except

     

    In my opinion for games that have overlays if you do not have the overlays for them I would think you are going to have to knock like $3 - $4 bucks off the price.

    War Room

    War Games

    Smurf Paint & Play Workshop

    Front Line

    Super Action Baseball

     

     

    The reason I say this is if the user wanted authentic overlays for the games they are going to have to pay anywhere from $1 - $7 ea to get them.

    Haven't played Squish em Sam yet even though I have it. Thanks for the heads up I will try it out.

     

    I have bought so many games this year that I haven't had the time to play most of them. I went from owning like 30 CIB to owning like 180 some games in one year :)

     

    That is why I started doing the High Score club to get me to play some of the games more.

    One of the games Threshold that we played in the club I really enjoyed. It is like a freaked out version of space invaders.

     

    I also had a lot of fun playing Bump n Jump but I always loved that game from when I was a kid playing it on Intellivision.

    Most rarity guides online are going to be outdated and not really what people are getting for the games these days.

     

    If you put up a list of what you found most people on this site know what they have been going for and could give you a real idea if you have anything in those games. Also remember to list if they are Complete in box or just carts because that is a huge difference in price.

    I definitely love my colecovision and all the games but I was surprised when I was looking at some atari 2600 and intellivision sites. You can get sticker shock because the colecovision games seem to be the most expensive especially if you want CIB like me. :) Yes there are some expensive atari games but it seems like most of the colecovision games are expensive.

     

    There are many homebrewers creating games and I think there are 4 or 5 possibly more games scheduled to release this year.

     

    Yurkie is a great guy who mods and fixes colecovision systems. The mods are to make them component capable. He also mods the controllers and in my opinion totally eliminates the only thing that most people complain about which is the colecovision controllers. The controllers are amazing and my hand has never been sore again after using his controllers.

    He can also fix them if you don't want them modded. All his work is top of the line, I wish I would have known about him before I got my colecovision modded by someone else. They did ok on my system but Yurkie's work always seems superior.

     

     

    I have 184 games including a lot of old homebrews and re-releases of prototypes that are hard to get but once in a while they show up on ebay but of course be prepared to PAY for them.

    $60-$70 loose.

     

    It's worth about twice that, depending on label condition.

     

    If I'm not mistaken you(?) had listed one on eBay that sold within the range stated above, which was a below-market fluke.

     

     

    I agree this double ender is the hardest to find of the 3 double enders. I was surprised when I saw it only go for 60 - 70 but do not remember the condition of it. I would want around $150 if I were to sell mine. Of course even if we consider it worth that much doesn't mean we are going to get it.

     

    I ran into this girl that said she wouldn't except less than $350 for a Boxed Jungle Hunt without instructions. I told her if ebay made me pay that much then I guess I would have to pay it but there was no way I was giving her $350, she didn't care. So you see price is always in the eye of the beholder and whether you can get that price is in the eye of the buyer icon_wink.gif
