    Default Two sealed Adventurevision games

    Have the opportunity to buy two sealed AV games. They are Super Cobra and Space Force. I offered $200 for both, and the owner wants close to $400. What's it worth?

    I sold a sealed boxed Pac Man 2 for the Entex Select A Game for $500 one time this past year and a second one with the down turned economy for $200 last month. And I think the AV games are more rare. $200 each sounds about right. But i don't think you will turn them for a big profit if you are simply buying to resell. If you were going to add them to your collection then $200 each doesn't sound like a bad price to me.

    I agree with kaboomer also remember that you may never see them again especially sealed

    I am unfamiliar with AV games but I think sealed ones are unheard of these days. If they are indeed real then try getting them for $300 or something.

    you should make a thread in general asking on how to tell if someone hasn't directed you. I'm trying to think of someone that collects these but not coming up with much but I'm sure someone knows.

    Just picked up the games today for $350. They are in a plastic bag that I did not remove. Under the bag the games are sealed and flawless.

    Very nice, too expensive for my tastes thought.

    Still nice find.

    http://www.handheldmuseum.com/Entex/AV.html

    According to the Handheld Games Museum, only 1,000 each of the 3 separate games were made for the AV. Out of those 1,000, how many can be sealed?

    I just had conformation that the games were indeed a real factory
    seal. AV games have a unique seal, with a small hole on the front and back. By clicking the above link, you can see for yourself. However, besides the seal, they are in an air-tight bag that is holding BOTH games. Could they have come from the factory like this? Was the toy store that carried the games supposed to open the bag?

    I am kicking myself to this day. When I was young I use to want that thing bad but it was always out of my reach price wise. I use to stare at that thing in the montomergy wards catalogue wishing on a star. I never played one. How did it play?

    I don't own an AV at the moment. I heard they played bad.

    thanks for the link PingvinBlueJeans that is really cool and really hard not to put a bid on it especially at that price. I can't believe its so difficult not to collect.

    Well, it's nearly a year later, and in that time I have yet to see a single Adventurevision game for sale on eBay (unless in a package deal with the system), much less sealed. I really would love to know how many sealed games exist, and if the value is way up on these. I was offered $500 for both, but turned it down without thinking twice.

    I don't think the value has changed much at all. Adventurevision items, especially sealed/new ones have always been scarce on Ebay or elsewhere. Having said that, it's not like that many people are collecting them primarily because they have always been expensive and they fall into that fuzzy category between console and electronic game. I know personally, I would buy a system or games if they ever became cheaper, but it's not something I would save or sacrifice to buy while there are many, many other items where that would be the case. As such, I probably will never own one and it frankly doesn't bother me that much. I suspect many collectors feel the same way and that's why the prices remain stable.

    Going to put this up on Craigslist, and if it gets no interest, then an eBay 7-day listing. What do you think a fair asking price for both is? Any takers before it goes up?
