I saw one of these at goodwill last night but didn't pick it up since it was $20 and I have no idea what they're worth. Also, the box was taped up so I couldn't check it out to make sure it was all there and woking. I heard they're pretty suceptable to not working. If $20 is a good deal I might go back and see if it's still there. Thoughts?

I just sold a big Microvision lot on Ebay over the summer that included 9 boxed games, 2 boxed systems, and another loose system and some more games for $55.

If the Microvision screen doesn't have any bitrot and there's a few loose games inside that box, I'd say $20 is about what it's worth. But it's not really a good deal.

Hell, If I were you I would have picked it up just for the sake of collecting purposes. Microvisions are not something you'll come across on a regular basis. In fact, I've never seen one in real life. Sure, the screens tend to go bad, but still, it's a nice conversation piece. That's the only reason I own a Tiger R-Zone. :)

Ditto..

I have a few that are good,others with bit rot....boxed,games etc..one of the things I still collect for..

I've never seen one in the wild..I probably would of fell over if I saw it and bought it.

Well...I went back and it was still there. Someone else had already torn into the tape to check it out. It had 2 games, the breakout clone(I forget what it's called) and pinball. There was also a Coleco Quiz Wiz shoved in the box. The screen looked all messed up so I ended up deciding to pass on it. I think I've already met my quota fro buying "broken crap" this month. It's probally still there if anyone here is interested in it but otherwise I'm leaving it be.
