Dunno about thrifts, but when I check kijiji for intellivision stuff there is never anything from PEI or Nfld, but a little from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, lots from Quebec.
If that is any help at all....
Not for a long time, like over 10 years, it happens more if they ship using UPS. Once a $20 mouse pad ended up costing me over $70 once they added duty, taxes, UPS customs handling fee whatever the hell that is. Now I won't buy anything feom US that ships via UPS
And a lot of these games are still available new so not really worth buying extra copies assuming they will appreciate in value like the limited run Intelligentvision games for example.
The ones that are no longer available seemed to sell fairly quickly.
too rich for my blood but some of you big spenders might pay this much for an empty box

Yes exactly, the game boxes are the Mattel international ones with the slot in the back of the box for an international, in this case Japanese, manual, but english text on the box, the overlays and cart are english too.
Digiplay on the other hand, which I almost completed recently, did all new different boxes, full colour brazilian manuals and brazilian language overlays and cart labels. Through some strange licensing deal they also released some activision titles and imagic ones, in completely different style of boxes.
Go on mercadolibre.com (brazilian version of ebay) and search intellivision to see these.
Night Stalker, Space Armada, Sea Battle, Space Battle, Auto Racing, Hockey, Skiing, Boxing, Golf, Tennis, Star Strike, 2 CIB consoles, pretty sure I have that blue catalog but not home to check right now.
So after putting it off for ages until I ran out of other variations to buy,
I've taken the plunge and bought my first Bandai games.
Even though only the manual is in Japanese I justified it in my head
because I don't have many international Mattel versions with the slots for the manual in the back,
so that's like a box variation right? Sure.
So 2 things, does anyone have a list of all the Bandai games?
Cmart? IntvSteve? Rev? Jason?
I've figured about 25 of them based on searching online,
I actually have 2 Bandai consoles but I don't think that every game pictured on the box actually got made?
AD&D? Reversi? Royal Dealer? Astrosmash? etc
Also does anyone have any good condition CIB Bandai games they want to sell or trade?
I bought 11 from a single ebay seller in Japan so looking for more.
Thanks, Steve
They're further north than we are, so are people in Maine, North Dakota, Montana, and Washington state, also northern parts of several other states.
Oh and Alaska of course.
That's ok I already have the gatefold, pm me and let me know how much you want for it, I won't have the money for a couple of weeks though unless it's really cheap
