Yep. Same thing as cl, but it's way more popular here.
I don't actually have $120 :p, so I'd have to borrow it, so I think I may have to pass :(

ahh i see, same boat as me

i have everything in the colecovision pic but without the boxes and manuals and cart holder
i have everything in the NES pic also except for the GC controller :)

but i think someone could turn that around and make an ok profit

That's going on the assumption that the Colecovision is actually functional. Those things are notorious for being poorly and cheaply designed. I bought four until I found one that works decently. And let's face it, how often do NES front loaders work well after all this time? If the seller doesn't say whether they're 100% functional, I'd be a bit wary of it. Even though the Coleco stuff is boxed, altogether it doesn't look like it's worth $120. It looks like the seller just threw in a bunch of junk to make it look like a bigger deal to justify the price they want. I'd personally pass on it. Most of the stuff can be bought in thrifts (other than the Coleco console boxed stuff) for far less than that total cost around here.

I'd also agree. Colecovisions can be finicky - MAYBE if everything works properly,but even then its a bit much for my tastes.

I also would pass. Actually, I did pass, as this is listed in my local CL as well.
