Vectrex

Was talking to a mate of mine. He mentioned that he was cleaning out his flat, and that he was about to throw away an old games console. A Vectrex . I told him to keep hold of it , and I would have a look around and see if it was worth anything.

Now, bear in mind, I havent seen the item, but apparently its in good condition, boxed with instructions.Comes with Minesweeper? includes the plastic overlay.


How much would it be worth.Even from searching this site I have seen mention of someone wanting £70 with games, then someone else selling one for £240 with games on Ebay.

Re: Vectrex

£80-90 - but it depends on condition - possibly a bit more depending on the condition of the box, etc...

This thread should be where people post things like this, but unsurprisingly no-one seems to use it!

Re: Vectrex

Vectrex is a superb system that holds its value quite well. If it is boxed then the machine with no games (apart from the inbuilt Minestorm) should fetch 70-80 quid, you can add a least a fiver for every other game you have (more if they are boxed).
