nice score.

She had it when i went over the first time but didnt have the cash to by it and she was asking 230. Kept in contact with her and kept me in mind when she couldnt move it.

Have I mentioned that I hate you yet?  :P


I check Craigslist all the time around here and the best lead I've seen so far is some asshat that wants to sell a US Duo and a Duo-R with no controllers for $1000

Nice!  I figured you would have snagged that sooner or later.  I'm a bit surprised that was still around.  Can't beat the price you paid. 

Did she end up selling the TGCD?  Asking price was a bit high on that one compared to the other stuff you got.

Yea, the lady had already sold the TG-CD lot when I got a hold of her, but she still had the Super PC Engine, so I told Syphic hit her up & the rest is history, got a hell of a deal!!

She still technically has the TGCD it but said someone mailed her a cashiers check for it. When she told me that my heart dropped. I told her to be carefule with taking checks on craigslist. She told me dude lives in Florida but sounded fishy. Told her to let it clear and wait a bit before shipping. Told her to keep me posted if the deal turns out to be a fake. Felt bad too cuz she wasnt aware of thse cashiers check scams.

Yeah, that could be a possible scam going on.  That's good of you to inform her about potential scams.  You just might get a call back and get yet another spectacular Turbo deal from her.
