Definitely. However, is it bad enough for Ebay to take action? At least he didn't list every cart for the systems.

Not really. It just struck me as funny. Wonder if anyone will overbid after failing to read the details.

One of these most complete system auctions ever!
Minus everything required to actually use the system!

Yeah, an untested coleco steering wheel (what, the guy didn't bother to buy C batteries to test it? He could have then included the batteries, after all), no included Atari joystick (but he might add some if you email him...), no included RF switch (but if you add $10 he will add one)... Add to this the fact that the examples of non-included Atari carts are some of the 2600's holy grails, and you do get a half-assed, so-called "most complete auction" that's far from complete.
Gotta love the $150 BIN.
BTW, "The seller ended this listing early because of an error in the listing." Either he thought that a $10 starting price was way too low for his "incredible" deal, or he realized that maybe, just maybe, no one would be willing to pay $150 for what he's offering (then again, mentioning SwordQuest: Water World, Cakewalk and Crazy Climber might have been a way to encourage fast readers (or non readers) to use the BIN).

What the hell is up with this...poll?! :hmm:
Just out of curiousity, I'm curious which vintage gaming system is better - Colecovision, Atari, Atari on Colecovision, or Other? Email me and I will update this page with the results.
RESULTS:
Colecovision.......Atari..........Atari on Colecovision........Other
.....0...................0....................1... .........................1(Pong)
..............................................ME
Either you're selling something or you're not. Why turn an auction into a fan page?
No wonder the auction ended early -- the whole thing is a mistake.
Duncan :D
