+BBWW Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Copies would be great to have! Are you going to Ebay the lot or sell here on AA? Consider me interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Steve Jones Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 I don’t think posting scans will have any impact on the price when you sell them, it will just let the majority of us who could never outbid the big boys a chance to see some history that has only been very minimally documented online so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masschamber Posted May 27, 2021 Author Share Posted May 27, 2021 also among the paper work was an alphacom inc warranty letter and sp40 manual, I think mattel just packaged the keyboard component printer with alphacom's existing manaul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masschamber Posted May 27, 2021 Author Share Posted May 27, 2021 (edited) okay here is everything I am going to list on ebay, the bin will be set at 1000, I don't expect to get that (then again I listed the printer interface and mic for 500 and didn't expect to get that either) , I'm going to make it quite clear I am very open to offers, but you know if they are worth that to someone, obviously I wouldn't be complaining yeah they are incredibly rare, but they are also just paper work, and given there is 0 data to go off of this is one of those I'm going to start with the absolute max I think I could get then work down from there If any of you guys make an offer, obviously I'd rather get it to someone here and am willing to take way less, and I mean way less, I guess I put out 200 and go from there, if that's too high I'll go lower, I am interested in trading, but the only intellivision game I don't have is well, spiker's intellivisionstuff.pdf Edited May 27, 2021 by masschamber 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are absolutely right! Actually, it might be even safer to split Cmart collection over more continents, I’ll make some room to preserve the Super Series and the sealed II Backgammon Schroedinger version...

He doesn't need to spread his property so far away. Just a little ways south along the West Coast should be fine... ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
