The answer is a definitive "no" to both parts of this question. No, you did not get a good deal and no you did not get ripped off.

 

Welcome to AA

[l3ushwig]

so i paid to much?

[Susuwatari]

Yep. It's basically a Coleco Gemini with Columbia badge.

[Spirantho]

Yup. And would have looked nice next to my Atari 2800 in my "odd Atari collection"....

 

But I didn't want it enough to outbid you.

 

But no, you didn't get ripped off!

I would say that is an ok deal. I have let out my fealers a couple of times. To buy one in a nice box for $100 but no takers. Offer still stands.

Seems like a fair enough price to me.

There is no box for this one AFAIK but if you want, I can buy a non-descript cardboard box like the one this probably came in, put a Columbia System in it, seal it, write Columbia on the outside of the box in black marker and mail it to you for $100 + shipping.
