Title: WTB: Colecovision console with joysticks
Post by: More Cowbell 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.

Post by: More Cowbell on October 19, 2008, 05:08:31 pm: 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.

Post by: More Cowbell on October 24, 2008, 11:54:19 am: 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.
