Swami Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Hmmm...wish I hadn't forgot to bid on the the first Piggy Bank. I did not win the second. $340 was a bit high...Hopefully a few more or the multi-cart with the rom will come out soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intvsteve Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Yeah, there were several items that went waaaay past what I expected, and surprisingly many that went unsold. Always surprising, these auctions are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxpressed Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I suspect that Intellivision collecting is a state where only the super rares and select homebrews are actively sought after anymore. Collectors are upgrading rather than adding to their collections, and only then if the price is right. Niche collecting (e.g. FCTVVO) is a response to most collectors having 98-99% of what they want already and the 1-2% being too expensive to acquire. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y-bot Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I am very happy with the prices I got. Thanks everyone for bidding. Sorry, Templeton Ichabod will never be for sale, lol. One thing that was crazy to me were the amount of bid retractions. Probably 7-8 in a week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 One thing that was crazy to me were the amount of bid retractions. Probably 7-8 in a week. Probably the same few people abusing it to feel out other's max bids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Probably the same few people abusing it to feel out other's max bids. Yah that's total BS move from douche bag buyers. eBay should shut the accounts of these asshats down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 The ones that surprised me the most were: Choplifter @ $71 (that's a steal) LTO 4-Tris @ $222 (thought it would go higher) Laser Sharks @ $142 (still available for $45?) Sexy Space Beaver @ $190 (sex sells?) Adventures of Tron (last 3 sales were $202, $275, $294) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 ... One thing that was crazy to me were the amount of bid retractions. Probably 7-8 in a week. Were these different random people retracting or was the same person or two doing it over and over? As an eBay seller, I have little patience for bid retractions. If they give a lame excuse or if it looks shady in any way, I permanently block them from bidding on any future items. You don't want to deal with these people even if they win. Ping me here or via PM if you need a hand in setting that up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Also, congrats y-bot on all the sales. I was hoping to League of Light and/or Robot Rubble but the prices on those went too high for me, though they did sell for their normal market price.

y-bot Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 My Ebay blocked bidder list is deep! I didnt really look at the reasons. Its always entered wrong amount but then they dont re-bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+the1hatman Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I took a shot at 5 or 6 of them but only won Super NFL Football. Still happy I was able to snag at least one though. Thanks y-bot for making these available. I assure you Football will have a good home ? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+intvsteve Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 There were only a few I had my eye on, but they jumped out of reach. A couple not by much, but doesn't matter if it's an inch or a mile when you don't win. Grats to the winners! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_Bill Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 What was the deal with the home brew baseball selling for that much? Was that an ultra rare edition? Forgive my ignorance I dont typically do home brew collecting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SoulBuster Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 It was released as a PCB board only. The buyer had to supply the cart and others came up with the box, manual and overlays? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stupus Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 It was only available as a bare pcb for a short time. It was not advertised. Then the other components were made at a later time and also only available for a short time and also not advertised outside this forum. So it was easily missed twice to make a cib copy.

wolfy62 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I was shocked the Defender of the Crown cart went for $148., more than many pretty hard to get boxed Homebrews did. You just never know....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+BBWW Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I finally got an Intellicart to go with my Cuttle Cart 3 and that cool Supplemental Overlays box and overlays...I missed on a few...I think I need to start using snipe... LOL Would have loved the Philly Classic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mammothservices Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I had missed out on some of David's late releases. I grabbed the Mystic Castle. It's missing the manual/overlays/label extra. If anyone has an extra set of extras, pm me. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfy62 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 (edited) I had missed out on some of David's late releases. I grabbed the Mystic Castle. It's missing the manual/overlays/label extra. If anyone has an extra set of extras, pm me. Thank you! Check with Steve Jones in this thread,he mentioned he has an extra box/overlay/manual set I believe.Maybe only for baseball? Not sure...
