PC Engine CD drives for sale!!! SOLD!!!! ALL Gone for now

[Keith Courage]

The Last CD drive is on hold. So as of right now I have no more for sale. I am glad to have gotten these drives into fellow forum members hands.


I have about 5-6 white PC engine CD drives for sale. I bought a big lot and repaired them all. Most drives have had the infamous CD lens gear replaced and some have newer lenses. Prices range from $60-80 just depending on the condition. Shipping should only be about $8 in the US. PM me if interested. These will also work in a US Turbo Grafx. Also, 5 dollars off if you mail me a check or money order as payment instead of using paypal.

Unfortunately I don't have any docking stations for sale.

I don't need one right now, but seeing your post put a big smile on my face.  Good to see these getting refurbed!

Do you have to cut some plastic on the port to make it fit on a US docking station? 

[turbokon]

There exactly the same, it would just be cosmetically unappealing.

PM'd you, good sir!

So, what would be needed to make this work with my regular TG-16?  Would I need any special power adapters or connector cords?

Also, would the CD drive output using red/white/yellow A/V cables?

I may be interested in getting you to region-mod my regular TG-16, and then just hook it up with one of these.  

Also, do you know if these drives would be able to play CDR's?

Thanks.

[Keith Courage]

Basically you would need a TG16 CD docking station, ac adapter, and cd system card. A cheaper JP system card can be used with a converter or a region mod. Also, I have some cheaper AC adapters available if anyone needs one.

Yes, they can read CDrs. Iv'e noticed that these type of drives generally read them better than DUOs typically do.

Always been interested in the white CD drives for some reason. Maybe get one of these and do an all white TG16 + CD setup? Wonder how that would look...

If you still have a few by Friday I'll probably pick one up from you. Any photos of the condition of these units with the price differences?

[Keith Courage]

The prices have to do with the cosmetic condition of the drive and if it has a new lens. So if you want a nice white one with a new lens and gears it would be $80.

$70-75 Close to being perfectly white with new gearing and or new lens.

A yellowed drive would run around $60. Gearing has been replaced but lens has not.

I didn't replace the lens on drives that didn't need one. So would reflect in the price as well.


Here is a pic of a drive being used in a USTG system.

that's... unappealing...
however, a PCE briefcase setup, that's a thing of beauty, get a nice Coregrafx/OG PCE and an IFU and you are good to go.
I think i'm gonna be breaking down and snagging one of these after playing with the idea for approximately forever.

Defiantly interested.  Would you ship to the UK?

[Keith Courage]

yes, UK shipping is fine. The shipping would run somewhere in between $12-$20 US dollars depending on the exact location. It would be easiest if you could just send me $20 via paypal and then I would just refund the difference once I ship the drive. I've noticed that the price is usually less in person than it is on the postal service website.

Better yet, white CD-Rom, Black Docking Station, plus a Grey PAL system (with US internals).  FrankenTurbob!

Done!*



Oh, and Bardoly? Your newbness is incredible.


*Except the internals. It's a stock PAL TG. I'm sure the adapter and Arcade Card Pro make up for it, though. The machine is owned by Thierry Henry over at Racketboy.

[MotherGunner]

Bomber, that looks f*cking awesome!!

[VenomMacbeth]

Dibs on the $60 one!  Unless, of course, someone beat me to it. Heheh
