retroillucid Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 There are already two Intellivision moulds....why not three? :-) Problem is shipping Even if I used someone's else cases Good example is when the Mattel shells were shipped to us Alot of money wasted in shipping And we already have Moldex working with us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Games For Your Intellivision Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 What kind of price do you need? We should talk. I think you over estimate the shipping costs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroillucid Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 What kind of price do you need? We should talk. I think you over estimate the shipping costs.

retroillucid Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) I'm in the homebrew scene since 2008 I always honored sales and never had problem If you feel like there should be an update, post here, I will be happy to answer question(s) and give an update If you're kind of upset by the delay, I appologize, sincerly There's ALOT of changes this year at CollectorVision Edited July 31, 2014 by retroillucid 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM_Intellivision Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 To Williams point, I provided a large chunk of Mattel cart shells for many of the 1st Intelligentvision games and when removing the circuit boards the weight/shipping cost is not too bad when done in bulk and packed tight.

That's exactly what we've done with the recycled Mattel shells We removed all PCBs from shells Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroillucid Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Don't missunderstood me We produced brand new Colecovision shells Our prices are A WAY LESS than prices asked here for INtv shells I'm clearly not against making a bit profit on each shell sold since, you always have to pay the initial cost of the mold and you always have to pay for the machine Set up ..... + making some bucks is ok as well ... BUT..... Even then prices doesn't seems quite right Ask me to buy some CV shells just so you can see I'm not asking that much Mainly because I want more homebrewers making games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM_Intellivision Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Always a good thing if prices can be kept low especially on a bulk order which hopefully allows for a modest profit as well. Getting usable Mattel shells is not as easy as many would think - many of the "125" don't have screws and are not usable (more than 1/2 believe it or not).

+JasonlikesINTV Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Where do old PCBs go after they have their shells removed? Electronics recycling? Trash? Hoarding pile? ...Or do they just grow a bigger shell after molting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM_Intellivision Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I was planning a future Polish multi-cart: One empty Mattel cart shell and like 25 different cart motherboards:-) Would sell it cheap for people who aren't collectors and on extremely tight budget but want to play the games. Better than throwing them out. And I could give cmart something else to look for as many PCBs are different:-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
