What price will you be charging for them, and how much for postage? And will you be able to get out to avoid the Xmas postal rush?  |

The price will be $38.00 AUD (Australian Dollars), which is currently equivalent to 32.95 USD, 21.04 GBP & 26.59 Euros (though these conversions will have changed by the time of sale). For postage, I'll have a table on the webpage (http://www.computernerdkev.heliohost.org/vecadapt/vecadapt.htm) with postage costs before the release date. For now: USA=$14.10 AUD, UK=$18.20 AUD, Europe=$18.20 - $20.20 AUD. As for beating the rush, that depends when the rush starts  . Orders placed soon after the release date should be sent well before the 15th, likely sooner. |

Oh, and the postage cost in Australia will be $7.20 AUD. Can't exclude the locals . |

The Xmas postal rush usually starts about two weeks before Xmas, if the UK and US is anything to go by.

Your economy changed the balance a bit after the GFC.
$1 AUD has been worth around $0.85 to $0.90 USD for quite a few months now. Also that's the cost of the VecAdapts, postage is below and I guess I should have converted it to local currencies too:
Postage - USA= $12.23 USD, UK= £10.08 GBP, Europe= 12.74 to 14.14 Euro.
The conversions will have changed by the time of release though, so this is just to give an idea.

Got mine as well. They work perfectly (although strangely not with the Sega wireless joypads). Thank you!

My VecAdapt came in yesterday, very glad I bought one.. This will definitely save some wear and tear on my original controller. Thanks again and Happy New Year! |

There has been a diagram for making a Genesis Controller work on a Vectrex for a long time. I'd like to see how yours differs though. It was never sold. playvectrex.com/vectech/controller.txtActually, I did sell a few. I got busy so never followed up with marketing it. Brian Holscher (Author of 1995 design) |
