Porte048 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) Today I bought something incredible. Out of excitement I started a thread on its own so I do apologize for that. eBay Auction -- Item Number: 282905808889 Edited March 30, 2018 by Porte048 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignorama Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Thank you for the kind words, but its not here yet. I hope it will arrive in mid-April. Update: Item is cancelled. The seller sold LF I some days before and says he sent LF II to this buyer. He said that yesterday and asked if I want a refund. I said "no", because I am fine when he sorts it out, even if it takes a bit time. Today the cancellation was in my mail box and he will contact me when he got the game back. I really hope so, but at the moment I have not bought the game. Pretty sad to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sad to be honest Oh what a frustrating feeling that must be. I have a few hardware items I have been looking for for almost a year now and run into them once in a great while, but each time something falls through and the search starts all over again. Frustrating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignorama Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Thank you, but at the moment I am not optimistic. Plenty of things can go wrong, may the game doesnt get back to the seller, may someone else will buy it faster when it goes online again. So I hope I get it, but right now I dont think so. Possibly the best mindset, prevents beeing dissapointed like I am now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari_Bill Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) This just happened on the Atari board as well. Someone offered more after the auction and the seller backed out of the sale on an ultra rare item. Hopefully this isn't what happened here. Sorry to hear.

Porte048 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 If it helps, I’ve bought from that selller before and to me he was honest. So hopefully he will come through. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharonPDX Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Oof. Yeah, I just got probably-burned on an eBay, too, although far less than a LF2. Saw a buy-it-now for a Sears Super Video Arcade controller plus a batch of manuals and overlays. Figured it was good to have a spare SVA controller, so I jumped on it. Package arrived yesterday, and it was just the manuals+overlays, no controller. eBay messaged, he said "it was in there when I mailed it - was the package damaged or opened?" No, no it wasn't. Not only that, but the box the manuals were in was too small to also fit the controller.Waiting on the reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he also wrote me a very kind mail. So I also have no doubt in this seller, he seems pretty kind and just made a mistake. Hopefully he can sort it out. Thank you for sharing your positive experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porte048 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Just arrived, a matching box for my newly acquired keyboard. Although I did purchase this before! This one is CIB with the console, papers, inserts, and a copy of Las Vegas Poker/blackjack Paid $80.75 Really wanted this box. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharonPDX Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 (edited) I love how Space Battle is the only game with no "logo" before the title. (Not counting the "coming soon" Auto Racing which we know was supposed to have a USAC Auto Racing branding/logo.) I wonder if the original plan was to have *ALL* games have a logo? Edit: And of course, immediately after posting, I realize that Space Battle was supposed to have a logo! It was supposed to be a Battlestar Galactica tie-in!

mr_me Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 (edited) There was one magazine that continued to refer to USAC Auto Racing well after the cartridge was released. I've never seen anything from Mattel that said USAC Auto Racing. Checkers has a fictitious logo. A logo on the cartridge label for every game, eg. Armor Battle, might have been nice.

Ignorama Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 It was listed on Ebay.com, but just for about 10 seconds until I bought it. Its the same I bought some days ago and I was in contact with the seller since he had the game back (as you may know he shipped it to the wrong buyer and cancelled my order). But in generell the best way: Just check every ebay now and then. I use Revs link collection, because it saves time: http://intellivisionrevolution.com/gamesearch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Who was recently looking for a Video Game Organizer? I can't find the thread, but I think it was in a discussion about Sears stuff.
