WTB: Colecovision console with joysticks
« on: October 15, 2008, 04:23:43 pm »
Moving along with my collection of classic consoles, electronic handhelds, and computers. Still need a Colecovision, doesn't need to be working as it is just for display. I would almost prefer non-working in order to save money. Preferably with joysticks. Also, always looking for suggestions on anything that should be added to the collection even though I'm running out of room.

Needs a Vectrex, a TurboDuo, and a Virtual Boy.  Then an SNES and a 3dO.

Yeah, I'd love to have a Vectrex and SNES. If I found one of those that was non-working that could be had for $15 or so that would be great. Because it's all just for display, I'm trying to keep the prices down. The calculator watches are still fething $30 or so which is a little high for my display.

Shoot I got a Super Simon if you want one to go with the original. I even have the box for it. Let me know if you are interested.

I have a Super Simon, just no room to display it. Thanks for the offer!
I grabbed a Colecovision with the Atari plugin on ePay for pretty cheap a day or two ago. Also saw a n Odyssey 2 on there that went cheap. I'm gonna need to add a shelf or move my collection.
