I've never even seen one...I thought that was an accessory for the DINA, but it actually came out in 1984.

Yeah I did some research on it and found that out as well,however can't seem to get a going price on 'em (or ANY) to compare it to for that matter....someone on my other trade site is offering one for sale and I have no clue what he's gonna ask for it or what I should offer....

I think the last one on Ebay sold for $300 and the box was a little beat up. Its a rare item but not much demand

Damn...! It dosen't seem like anything I'll really use,but it would've been nice to add to my coleco collection (still wonder what he's gonna ask for it)

I might be wrong but I thought that the last boxed one sold for quite a bit more that that. I thought that the last loose one sold for about $300.

Well this one was sealed, and probably could have held out for more but I needed the sale. Now if I only had a sealed heavy-sixer around here to put up..

Yes...I am told the last sealed one went for $1000. :!:

Might this be a case where the primo nutso collector is willing to pay $1000, so the collector gets it and moves on (unless he/she is really nutty and wants another one, but let's leave that alone for this treatment). The second big spender now can get it for less relative to what primo was willing to spend, but still far more than most other collectors would be willing to pay (thus keeping it out of flipping range). And then the third big spender and so on down the line, each time causing a recalibration of the perceived market value.

 

Personally, I have been on the lookout for a Super Sketch for quite some time now, but this was out of my price range, due in some part to the item's rarity and due in another part to the fact that it was NIB, and since I open up all my games and play them, the difference between NIB and CIB is significant in this case.

Hey, you didn't have to accept chuys450's best offer. Besides, I didn't know until now...he's the one that told me. In any event, I don't know who bought the one that supposedly went for $1K, but I don't know who among the current Coleco collectors would be willing to shell out that much $$$ for it...I know I wouldn't, which is partially what Zwackery alludes to.
