Unfortunately not sealed but hey, single digit price tag so not complaining. 

That's #10!  Nice find!  I thought the back of this one was interesting with the French cart label sticker placed there because the first one that was found also has this sticker on the back:

It's probably a coincidence but does make me wonder if they put the French sticker on the back while they were boxing some of them. If we find a 3rd one then we can worry about it.

In my copy the French sticker is loose…

Haha, I saw that post with the BC Quest for Tires and didn't bother to look at the other items. Caught me slippin'!  Congrats on this, it's a beauty!  This is #11 on my official tracker.

 

Interestingly, @Cellblock1138 recently discovered #3 for sale and pointed me to the posting. I think I have a deal with the seller to have it shipped to me but no money has transferred hands just yet.  If I get this, I think that will mean that all 11 are in the hands of known Intellivision Collectors (though I don't officially know who has #9).

 

CORRECTION: We don't know who has #8 either.

[BigDumer]

The whole family (so far).

I didn’t forget the advice of @Atari_Bill the Sniper: always look to all listing’s pictures…

I didn’t forget the two LF he got for nothing in a meaningless lot…🤣🤣🤣

Just transferred the $ for this so hopefully it will make its way safely to me.

Somewhat related, for a few seconds I thought I'd discovered something I suspect exists until I saw the word Atari.

Yeah, I'd have a heart attack if I saw that! Like when I was looking for an Intellivision FC Popeye and kept finding the Atari 2600 version before noticing the differences.

 

Is the Atari DK one similarly hard to find?  Are there others besides DK for Atari 2600?

I was pretty stoked thinking I'd finally found the Inty version. Lol. From what I understand these appear to be quite uncommon for Atari as well. I haven't done much homework on it yet. Don found a thread here on AA which I haven't read through yet.

Congrats!  Nice pickup.  I saw that auction but don’t think I went through the pics to see it.

 

Here’s more advice….  You never know what can be misidentified.  Don’t restrict your searches to just Intellivision.  Just picked this up labeled as     ‘Vic 20’ game for $35.  😊

Congratulations!!!🎉🎆🎇🥳

Did u buy it as fast as you could to realize afterward that was for Atari?

 

I would have done so for sure!!!🤣🤣🤣

 

 That would be a bomb!!!

It was actually at a game store, so I had time to figure out what it was and it wasn't a panicked eBay BIN. Lol. I did buy it for $10 along with a nice FC DK for $15 and a FC CV game that I needed as well. It was a good day.

Anyone familiar with g.a.m.e.s. unlimited?  I couldn't find anything in canada but did find a local store in the US.  Could this cartridge have been sold in the US?

Sure.  That was a chain store of pool table and games back in the early 80s.  It is where we bought our console back in 1980 in downtown Winnipeg.  My box still has the price sticker.

 

One of my Coleco carts also has the tag from Consumers Distributing.  Which was another retail chain store back in the day.

[BigDumer]

I picked up number 3 at the Post Office this afternoon:

It is missing the top of the box and the manual could be better but mostly I'm happy to have one, three years after trading #1.

Congratulations BigDumer for getting your white Carnival (again)!!!👍👍👍

 

Mine is probably flying over the Atlantic ocean in this very moment, I hope it will reach my house rapidly and safely!!!🤞🤞🤞

 

It was listed on ebay by a video game store in Airdrie, Alberta: https://www.snapcollectables.com

on Ebay they go with "snapcollectablescom"
