The Plus/4 was my first Computer ever before I collected LCD games (I almost had 5-6 different games, still archieving them in my cupboard). My parents bought my Plus/4 in a big cardboard box with stretcher latch in the famous german department store "Karstadt" for 150 DM (approximately 75 €). This package contained a Plus/4, Datasette, 2 Books (Operating instructions and a book about Basic) and the "Basic Course" in german on Tape.
I remember my first game "Thrust". We paid 9,99 DM (5 €) for this game but it didn't work. Not because a damaged tape but a wrong adjusted Datasette (my cousin could load the game). So I must get along with the Basic Course on my first real "Computer day" until my father adjust it to manufacture status next day. 
What a luck if you've a television technician as father.
