Even if the ColecoVision turns out to be defective, I'd say you got a good deal here, especially if the steering wheel and Roller Controller are working properly.

If you got a Donkey Kong Complete in box and in nice condition, then you made a REAL deal! The rest is kind of free! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Yurkie Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I think of this as a brag thread. Obviously if you get a stack of CIBs you made out like a bandit, even if you pitch the Console and controllers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sold a boxed DK to retroillucid last year. I wish I would have kept it. It was nice to have actually had one in my hands to look at.
