Seems to high to me.

[roflmao]

I agree.  High, but not ebay high.  

None of those games are particularly pricey, but I have to admit, those magazines and books do sweeten the pot. (I have the books, but have long since gotten rid of the magazines.  Stupid me.)

[Black Tiger]

Thats not bad considering how complete everything is, as long as the condition is good. Its not a great deal either and lots are supposed to offer a noticeable discount compared to individual values. If someone is starting out and insists on having Turbo stuff and complete games then it would be worth inspecting in person.

[xelement5x]

Not bad, looking back on it I kick myself for not picking up a super sweet batch of Turbo stuff that was local to me like a year ago.  It was like $500 as well but included things like a US 3.0 System Card, DE II, Exile 2 and other goodies.  I thought the price was too high for the time, and it kind of was, but looking at prices now it would have been a steal.

[Necromancer]

Agreed on the price not being all that bad, and it's possible it'd sell for less.  Craigslist = haggle like a mo-fo!

It is harder to find anything TG-16 on Craigslist, Ive only seen 5 listings in the last 6-8 months, including the ones Syphic was able to pick up. I got lucky and picked up one system with a couple of games.

[geise]

Congrats on the system purchase.  Sadly it seems like most of the tg stuff now just makes it's way to ebay. 

[rrob78]

very true, I do find every now and then someone selling games, usually Hucards only but they want the same price as if it was CIB, that and they are usually in other states, lol.
