Though this was interesting, commercial box along with its 'shipping box'???

the box that the unit was shipped in, from manufacturer to retailer........

I've never seen that one before. I've seen them for Astrocade and Odyssey. I always assumed they are mail order. I don't know how systems were shipped from the manufacturers but most other merchandise is not shipped 1 per case. I've never seen a box that held several systems but I assume that is how they were shipped. I have an Astrocade shipping box but the label is gone.

I wonder if the seller will put that box in another box...then you will be going through three boxes to get to your Vectrex. :)

I wouldn't be surprised if those shipping boxes become collectible, especially for defunct companies. Is Milton Bradley still around?

I have one that I believe is genuine for Arcadia 2001.
