NIAD Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Congrats Jim, well done you! Give your PayPal account a break and then you can get started on your Inty collection. I still have a pile set aside for you. Well Done JIM!! Welcome to the Complete ColecoVision CIB Collection Club :-DThanks guys! The second time around was a lot more expensive, challenging, heart breaking and took about one year longer. Tell you what, I'll NEVER do it again. Hmm... intellivision? Ah, I just can't bring myself to do it especially when I still have about 6 more variations to track down and then consider collecting the French/Canadian variations as well as the CBS English and/or Multi-language CIBs (starting to really appreciate the artwork on those boxes) and the early Homebrews that I missed. Oh well, looks like I still got a long way to go before considering the Inty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValkerieSilk Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Wow, what an awesome Christmas Miracle! Quick see if your wine bottle never goes dry. The Slurpy box and manual arrived safe and sound (just like they looked in the eBay auction pictures) and the loose cart that I've had fits perfectly inside... it finally has a home! So with that said, my U.S. Legacy Releases collection is... COMPLETE!!! Time to tack a break and let it all sink in as well as let the ole' bank account recoup after 3 1/2 years of chasing all these CIBs down. I blame Yurkie for getting me started on collecting CIBs after buying his CIB collection to get the ball rolling on this endeavor... THANKS BUDDY!

Zwackery Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Since the release of the CV Flashback, I've had to go in and modify all my rare CV eBay searches with a "-flashback" tag because I'm getting deluged with word spammers and their listings.

I wish I was paying closer attention to this auction... That was indeed a STEAL!!! Everything looks to be in very good condition including the box, there is no yellowing of the devices that I can see from the pics, it includes some extra software, an EM#1 and it has been tested although just the basics, but that's better than most do on eBay. The shipping for me would have only been $40, so if I was in the market for another system, this would have definetely been the one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RelliK111 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 (edited) I should've placed another bid. I had up to 90 but between buying the CF cards for my adam and buying a game from pixel boy , had to control myself I would have but I'm still buying Christmas presents so my wife would have killed me if I spent $100+ on myself right now Just bad timing. I wonder if I could talk my son into asking Santa for a ADAM this year for Christmas instead of a Xbox One Edited December 22, 2014 by RelliK111 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scalpel Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I bought this today in Paris to a guy (his mother found this recently in their house). I bought the lot for a faire price. I have to tell you I don't know about the price for the MSX games, if you have some information about them, don't hesitate 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 That's a great pickup there Scalpel and the CBS Electronics Time Pilot CIB/box is a pretty rare one as far as I know.... maybe Crapahute could shed more light on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crapahute Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Yes, I also had difficulties to find this box. http://www.colecoboxart.com/coleco_timepilot.htm It seems to be a CBS3 made in England so I think it's not as rare as the CBS3 made in Spain which in my opinion were made later and in smaller quantities. I found for example a Mr.Do! CBS3 made in Spain. The back of this box is like the one of a CBS1 with Spanish texts. I haven't put it onto my site yet, but will do it soon to show you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
