Columbia Home Arcade

The Columbia Home Arcade was a clone of the Atari 2600. Actually, it was a clone of a clone in that it was an exact duplicate of the Coleco Gemini except for its brand markings. Over the past two years, I have seen only two of these rare consoles appear on eBay. One listing is still live as of July 2013, and interested parties may purchase a bare console for four figures. I cannot provide an accurate value for this item, as the figure lies somewhere in between two extremes.

Columbia Home ArcadeBack in March 2012, this Buy It Now listing appeared, offering the Columbia Home Arcade for $59.95 plus shipping. Also included in the lot were two original controllers, power supply, RF cable, and the bottom half of the styrofoam packing.
