So anyway I met this guy though a friend of mine, he asked me if I wanted to buy this atari like system connected to a tv. I really had no idea what he was talking about a first, didnt cross my mind. He said if I had 20 bucks on me it was ALL mine. Sounded like a good deal allready. Brings it to my place, Find out its a Vectrex with 18 games, both paddles, and all the face plates. Nearly keeled over but now I am a proud owner of a Vectrex at a 3rd of the cost!

here are the games listed in no particular order

Polar Rascue
Pole Position
Star Trek
Space Wars
Heads Up
Solar Quest
Scramble
Art Master
Melody Master
Fortress of Narzod
Web Wars
Starhawk
Spinball
Bedlam
Cosmic Chasm
Star Castle
Berzerk
Armor Attack

Now its funny because I have face plates for Blitz and Clean Sweep and I know this guy has to have the art pen somewhere but he has no idea where any of it is... keeping my fingers crossed.

Very nice :) I found mine at a garge sale for $8 but it only had 2 games. I'm schocked people don't think that this sorta stuff may be worth more then what they're asking. I mean you got the games for $1 each and the system for $2 O_O

Yes It's a good deal!
That's about 2-300 dollars auction wise for 20 bucks!
Good Gravy man, nice haul!
