Long time reader, first time poster. As a matter of fact, I've been reading here for so long that I feel that I already know some of you. The NWC gold cart "how much?" threads are always fun. As are the Anthony1 posts and replies. Quite an active group here.
Anyway, the point of this post is to say I'm not much of a gamer really, but I'm a collector at heart. I just ordered this:

I'm interested on anyone's take on it - as in, did I get taken. I asked myself, "Self, what you pay to restore an Inty you already had?" And the answer was, "Oh, probably about $200 or so." So, I have no regrets, assuming it works.
That's what we had when I was growing up (I'm 33), so it's all about the nostalgia for me. And if anyone here has tried playing Intellivision on an emulator, you know how difficult and not fun it is.
And I don't mind buying this on eBay at all. I'm not a scavenger anyway, but even so, I can't see ever finding one in the wild in this presumed condition.
So, your thoughts? Did I get taken to the cleaners?
