What would you pay for a brand new one of these.

Not Mine. Patent Pending

I'm thinking, "not this much!"

[BDW]

.....And I'm pretty sure you are right

[EricDeLee]

I saw that yesterday and thought it was way over-priced

[StanJr]

I agree, it seems high. What is a reasonable ceiling for something like this?

I was thinking somewhere around $200-$250. At least that is what I would pay.

that's what a used set usually goes for when it is complete ...

 

and the condition is pretty much the best you can get ... and there is a 'make offer' button ... if i had enough cash to buy expensive items for my collection, i'd make a 400$ offer ...

It's a far cry from being "brand new" also. Look at the outer box. It's seen some real better days for sure.

Another factor: historically the Sound 1 (French) Canadian version of the Kid Vid has gone for less money than the US version, sometimes up to 50% less.

I would like to see a few pictures of the box. Its super hard to open it without major damage. $300 in nice shape maybe a little more if it is new and near mint.

I am pretty sure that this is a known seller with a new seller ID. I saw this purchased on eBay some months back for around $150.

I think so also. The coleco games are also a dead give away IMO.

Wow.

 

I got mine off Ebay a day or two after Christmas two years ago. Stole it at $105.00

There was another one selling at the same time that went for $150.00. The person had two of them.

 

This one looks to be in the same condition as mine (and the other one) was in at the time.

Basically, everything in both of the sets were brand new except the outer box. The outer box was open and the 'lids' were loose (almost coming off)

The tapes (in both auctions) were still wrapped in plastic.

 

I am guessing this is my version's lost twin brother.

Fascinating.

 

I also remember the other one (this one that sold) was missing the cable from the tape player to the Atari.

 

Such a small world our hobby is...
