Title: Entrex Adventure Vision System for sale on eBay - Like new!
Post by: Malygris on January 23, 2008, 04:09:19 PM
Got 5500 bucks kicking around? Have a look at this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170187438707

It's a complete, near-perfect Entrex Adventure Vision system, with three cartridges (which is apparently all that were ever made). Lots of photos and an interesting story about the system's history. I don't know if it's worth 5500 smackers, but the auction is sure worth a look.

Great item to look at. I have no idea what something like this is actually worth, but it sure is fun to browse.

Those are quite rare and to see one in such condition truly is a treat. Price might be a bit high but they are worth a lot of money, especially in that condition.

Has anyone asked the seller to donate scans or images yet?

Thats really the important thing.

EDIT
Page finally loaded.
That is pretty cool.

Personally i find the distributor shipping box very cool.

I was thinking the same thing.  If you don't want to ask I will, just let me know.

That thing is really cool, I could never pay that much for it but it great to see one in such great shape.

I was going to right away. But didn't know if anyone else had.

It wouldn't be the first time i had asked someone via eBay if they would contribute images.

That reminds me what ever happened to FND?

Ok, I will contact the seller and ask if we can use his/her images.

I haven't contacted FND in a bit, I got busy at work & home so I didn't have time to format any more images, then I just never thought about doing it again.

lol

I was just wondering.
I know he/she had an account though and didn't know if you knew FND personally.

No I didn't know him, I just spotted some auctions up with nice high quality scans so I asked if we could use them on the site.  He must have sent me a couple of thousand images that he had from previous auctions he did over the years.

I sent a message to bobsbrand, I will let you know when I hear back

We got the go ahead to use the images!!  Here's the response I got from the seller:

Sure man, thanks for asking first. When I made the photos for the auction I
figured it would be 'open season'. Take em! Photo credit is cool too,
please credit "Steven Read". Glad some people are still interested in the
ghetto bad ass ADVENTURE VISION SYSTEM! Hope your gaming site/community is
doing well...
-Steven

I have all the images saved (all 34 of them) and I am working on formating them for submission.
