I'd take it!

Seems a good deal to me… especially in that condition and complete. The Odyssey came with alot of little 'non-game' pieces such as cards, dice, et cetera… of which I imagine are difficult to find these days.

Yeah, you're going to have a hard time finding it CIB that nice. Plus it is the first video game console, so it's a piece of history.

If you can verify that it is truly CIB, then ask them for the Model Number\Run that is listed on the underside of the console. The original release (1TL200BLAK, Run 1) is the truly desirable system. $200 would be fair for that model, a bit high for the subsequent releases IMHO. For more info:

Hope this helps.
