Vectrex with 9 games.

Trying to figure out whether this is a good deal or not since I'm not too familiar with the Vectrex and its games.

The games are: Narzod, Armor Attack, Clean Sweep, Solar Quest, Bedlam, Berzerk, Spike, Spinball, and Star Trek. The games are all in the box and I'm sure they all have the overlays.

The system itself if just that, no box or anything. Goodwill wants $150. What do you think?

I'd say go for it. I paid about $140.00 for my Vectrex (boxed) with a handful of boxed complete games. You have to think $20.00 a pop is a fair price for pretty much any complete Vectrex game, sometimes they can go for more, sometimes they can go for less. In my experience though you can get pretty much any Vectrex game complete at pretty much any time for $20.00. (yeah, there are exceptions both ways) That's $180.00 right there for the games.

If you like classic vector arcade games the Vectrex is an amazing console to have. While a few of the games are arcade ports, they have the "feel" of early vector games.

If you end up getting it and decide to get rid of a game here or there, keep me in mind. LOL

If everything works properly and the games are all complete in good condition, then I'd say it's worth it. The games you listed should be worth that much if they're all complete and working.

Awhile back I got a boxed Vectrex with 2 controllers and 7 boxed games for $100 total, I believe all but one of the games were complete. The system died on me within an hour of playtime so I sold everything off. I consider the Vectrex to be a fragile system so you really have to make sure it's working properly if you're spending a decent amount of cash on one, if you have to pay someone to repair it the cost will add up.

Only if everything is 100% complete. For $150, I think you're entitled to inspect the merch before buying imo.

I'd pay it, but I really want a Vectrex. If you're not foaming at the mouth while posting about it, you might want to do some checking.

[Mayhem]

Yeah, check to make sure everything works and is in good order. Complete games run $10-15 minimum and a loose Vectrex is probably worth $75 or so, so it's probably a decent enough deal.

Exactly what I needed to hear. Thanks guys!
