1973 Magnavox Odyssey Games

[PsychedelicShaman]

Hey guys, single games have been popping up recently, but I'd really like to find a full set of the 1973 Odyssey games. The games are: WIN, Interplanetary Voyage, Brain Wave, Basketball.

 

Mint condition not required, though I would prefer them to have all (or most) of their pieces. If you are willing to sell or know someone who's selling, please let me know. I'm prepared to shell out a decent amount of cash for these! Thanks.

 

 

 

Oh, also looking for a carrying case, AC adapter, Odball, and an export Odyssey/Odyssee

These are not so easy to find. especially the complete set. I Know the seller on eBay has 2 complete sets. Maybe ask them.

[PsychedelicShaman]

Thanks, but I'd really rather go through a different channel, robotkingnes has kind of built a name for himself...plus the last set he had for sale was $3k.

 

Congrats on your complete collection:) Where did you get the 1973 set from?

Good luck in your search. I eventually found a mint set on ebay. I did have to shell out a good amount of cash though. No where near $3000. So good luck. Try to be patient(as it can get frustrating trying to track this set down) and hopefully a set will come your way. You never know you might hit up a garage sale and find a set for $10. Who knows. It took me about nine months to a year to finally get mine. My set was found at an auction by the seller.

I got mine on ebay as well.

 

Ive spent alot of time on my collection. Its not that easy to get all the little things. Take your time and itll all come. I just sold me spare set of 73 games. I actually split them up and sold them seperately.

[PsychedelicShaman]

Thanks guys! I've been looking for a while. When I first started collecting, I bid on a set that went for like $175 on Goodwill, still kicking myself to this day:) A few years ago, I was outbid on another auction. The next time I see a set I won't let it go so easily!

To buy or not to buy...Robotkingnes has all 4 games up for sale. What I really don't understand is he keeps consistently raising the price of the games but they aren't selling... Side deals maybe? idk

[Odysseus]

I dont know either. Maybe offer $1000. Thats about their price. Hopefully he sells

[Odysseus]

basketball is by far the rarest and its a great price. Then Id negotiate the rest but thats just me

 

Did you buy the WIN that sold for $100

Nope, must have missed that one, that's a nice deal:)

[Odysseus]

It was missing the 4 markers but not a bad price

 

In my opinion complete games are worth around $250. So thats what id expect to pay.

[Odysseus]

his brainwave sold for $300. Did you by chance buy it

[Odysseus]

If not i know someone with a spare

[PsychedelicShaman]

Yah, $250 seems to be roughly the going rate, though it's kind of hard to tell with these rarities. I didn't pick up brain wave, was still sitting on the fence about buying single games. Probably about time to make a move. I'll PM you.
