   I was a bit lucky. I got my colecovision by going into a thrift store and   
   seeing a colecovision console and racing controller in brand-new-looking box   
   sitting on the counter. Someone had obviously just dropped them off.   
      
   And my SMS with box I got from another thriftstore many years ago before   
   they all stopped stocking electrical items. I have maybe 30 or 40 games in   
   boxes for it. It's a nice little system.
