You have something to sell? First you will find my want list, I'll pay good money if you have anything that's on it. Below that you'll find information that can be used as a guide to know if your videopacs or consoles have any collectable value.

Want list (games, collections, other stuff, consoles) :

GAMES    
Radiola 13
  Radiola 13 - I need just two more for a complete Radiola collection.
question mark
  Radiola A - One collector thinks he has seen one of these, but there is no evidence to support its existance.
41 English eurostyle  

41 English, European style - Two English examples of 41 Conquest of the World have been found by collectors in the European style, as opposed to the American continent style (see box sets for more details). I'd like one as well. CLICK PIC FOR LARGER POPUP.

question mark   42 English, European style - Does this also exist? Seems possible...

COLLECTIONS

   
Siera
  Siera games - ANY! See my Siera page for what I currently have.
Mag O2   MAGNAVOX - MANY! Good condition boxed games or boxed consoles, as I currently require quite a few of the boxed games. See my Magnavox Odyssey2 page for what I currently have.
Brazilian   Brazilian - ANY! See my Brazilian page for what I currently have.
Jopac   Jopac - MANY! See my Jopac page for what I currently have.
Japanese
  Japanese - ANY! Japanese videopacs do exist, but I've never seen any for sale and I don't have any. They have a simple Japanese sticker on the box spine, and a photocopied page of Japanese instructions, interestingly saying Philips and Odyssey2. CLICK PIC FOR LARGER POPUP.
OTHERS    
Paperwear & posters   Paperwear and posters - ANY! If you have any paperwear, even if I have it already, I'm interested. This includes posters, adverts, club magazines, service manuals, etc.
White storage boxes
  White storage boxes - There are two styles of the white videopac storage boxes, I only have one style and I can always find room for more of these.
Accessories
  Accessories - Dust covers, badges, cartridge racks, you name it...
Prototypes
  Prototypes - I have not collected any of these so far, but I'd be interested if you have some.

CONSOLES

   
G7200 UK
  There is a version of the G7200 for the UK that says "SELECT GAME", rather than "QUEL JEU?", and should also have an english electrical plug. I want one.
Boxed Siera   Boxed Siera G7000 - I have an early boxed one of these, where the Philips name had been replaced with Siera stickers, but I'd rather have one of these fancy box versions.
no pic available   Schneider 74+ - preferably boxed, but I'll take a loose one.
no pic available   Schneider 741+ - preferably boxed, but I'll take a loose one. CLICK PIC FOR LARGER POPUP.
no pic available   Siera G7400 - preferably boxed, but I'll take a loose one.
no pic available   Jopac 7401 - preferably boxed, but I'll take a loose one.
Boxed consoles
  Boxed consoles - ANY! Except G7000 or C52. See my consoles page for details.

Lets be realistic about this, there are not as many collectors today as there were back in the early days. As a result, a large number of games and consoles will not fetch much more than the price of the postage, if your lucky.

For example, there are 60 original standard games if you include the PLUS versions. I myself used to own 12 of these games as a kid. That means that if today I wanted all 60 games, I would end up with 5 consoles!

Then allow for duplication in those 12, as some games were more popular and everyone had them. For example, at one time I had no less than 32 copies of number 4 Air-Sea War/Battle, before the boxes got stripped for something else or they got donated for new release parts.

So, when calculating what I'll pay for something today, I add zero £/€/$ for a G7000 console, as I already have a stack of them in my loft. For a number 4, the same thing. If I buy collections today, it'll just be for one or maybe two things I want, and the rest gets 'boxed'.

Do you have common or rare games? To give you an idea, here is a snapshot (games only) from the height of my collection. If I have less than 10 then it probably has some collectable value, if I have 3 or less (and it's not an available new release) then it is definitely worth something. Also note that most collectors are only interested if it is complete, so if it has no box or a badly damaged box then this seriously damages the collectable value (that goes for consoles also) :
