I can buy a vectrex lot which includes 2 vectrex systems and a 75 game multicart for $200. One controller is missing the tip of the analog stick but I've got an extra replacement controller I could use with it.

I'll be honest, I don't really want this lot, but I can't pass up a deal.

I think this is a great deal - am I right?

If the systems are loose and in decent condition, I'd say it was probably about fair price for the lot.

It's not a great deal, but it's ok. I'm assuming there's no overlays with this lot, it's just two bare systems with a damaged controller. I don't see how this guy didn't know one of the controllers was missing the joystick cover before being told about it by someone else, considering he has two Vectrex systems and only one controller is missing the part. I've found the ad for this so I know how it's worded, I personally wouldn't bother with it.

Awesome - thanks guys :)

At one point I knew these multicarts used to be worth a few bucks, but I think since the micro SD versions came out, they're not in demand like they were.

I've only found multicarts online that sold for $40, they didn't have as many games as the one included in that lot but I can't see it selling for that much more. So it's $200 for a lot maybe worth $240-$260 at the high end, maybe less as one of the controllers is missing the cover.

In the past I found a boxed Vectrex with around 13 boxed/complete games for $100 total, I wouldn't pay much for them. My system died shortly after buying it(within an hour) so I'm nervous of these just dying out of the blue, I don't want to touch them unless they're cheap.
