Atari_Bill Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 No, that is not a good price - that is an insanely high price. That seller (originally called RelliK111) prices everything that is mildly rare at ridiculously high levels and has done so for many years. Just look at the other items he's selling. I was wondering if that was Rellik. I couldn't recall for sure what he changed his name to but the rediculous and shady listings made me think it was him. He's apparently moved as I believe he used to be in Ohio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValkerieSilk Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Geeez... I thought they were authentic ... I even PM'd NIAD... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValkerieSilk Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Shit - you're right. The box looked like it had some printing flaws but now I realise that's the lighting effect through the plastic outer box. Good grief, plus it says CollectorVision in the title!!!! I have the CollectorVision boxes and they look great. Much much much more economical that buying anything from Relik. I must be blind, where does it say Collectorvision?

Ikrananka Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 I spotted a promotional CBS-ColecoVision brochure for sale here in the UK, which I thought may be of interest to you. The seller states that it was produced circa 1982/83. Interestingly enough, if you look at picture 4, you will see that infamous early design of 'Expansion Module 3'/ADAM. eBay item # 201946069110 - CBS ColecoVision brochure Wow - final bid was £149 (~US$190) - that just seems crazy to me. But then again I don't ever recall seeing one of these for sale before so maybe not. Anyway, I'm so glad I kept my copy all these years and didn't need to bid. Did someone here win it?

Crapahute Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Definitely not. I bid 10 €. I’m not crazy enough to go higher for such a thing even if I’m fond of Colecovision I appreciate your help for the scan. Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 (edited) Hi everyone, Greetings from (not so sunny) Belfast, Northern Ireland again! I spotted a promotional CBS-ColecoVision brochure for sale here in the UK, which I thought may be of interest to you. The seller states that it was produced circa 1982/83. Interestingly enough, if you look at picture 4, you will see that infamous early design of 'Expansion Module 3'/ADAM. eBay item # 201946069110 - CBS ColecoVision brochure HOLY SHIT !!! REALLY ??? 149pounds ($190) !!! Anyone still wants one, i'll take $175 plus shipping and insurance. Just send me a PM.

But then again I don't ever recall seeing one of these for sale before so maybe not. Anyway, I'm so glad I kept my copy all these years and didn't need to bid. Did someone here win it? Yeah, that seemed insane to me, too. It's a nice brochure, but I didn't feel it had as much unique features or artwork as one of the press kits full of those sell sheets has.
