What's the going rate for a in box TG-16?

[FiftyQuid]

The one I'm looking at has a very good box, all the baggies, styrofoam, and some of the paperwork.  I want to put an offer in, but I don't want to insult the person.  A loose TG16 can be had for about $50 around here with a TurboPad and 3 to 5 common's tossed in.  I'm thinking in-box is around $200, but is that realistic?  I mean I can get a loose TG16 for $50 so that means the box brings the value up another $150?!

Wouldn't $100-$150 be more accurate?

Wrong person to ask, but these days a boxed TG16 with all styrofoam, baggies and pack ins I wouldn't be ashamed for paying $200 for. I'd want KC in there too though .

To be clear, if I was just looking to get into TG I wouldn't be picking up anything like this. If you are already here though and items are in good shape, $150-200 isn't an awful deal.

[FiftyQuid]

Of course KC is in there!    Your opinion is pretty much the same as mine on this.  I don't really need it, I just happened across it and thought I'd see what happens.  I'm sure we've all been there.  A deal is a deal you know? 

Any other opinions?  Is $200 the limit or would you go to $250?

They sell on eBay for like $80 all the time.

For me $200 would be a hard limit, and everything had better be in good condition. $250 is well within CD territory. We both know we could do better looking outside NA though.

I saw a rental unit go at auction for $225 with Keith Courage and a turbo booster. Mind you that was last year and the box looked like some dog had its way with it but yeah $200 is a little steep.

If you guys want to spend $200, I've got a very nice boxed TG16 I'll sell one of you guys

Also gives me an excuse to sell the booster+

Not on my eBay.

Shipping would kill me.  USPS rates just keep climbing.  $12 for a CD?  $30 for a cartridge?  What's a console ship for boxed?  $100?

Damn man, I've only got so much savings. If you make it out here, I'm totally looking forward to pilfering what you got though!

If it makes you feel any better, this isn't just international. USPS is stunningly incompetent domestically.

I've bought an average shape box complete for $115 and another average shape box that was complete and also included a CIC Splatterhouse and a loose Bonk's revenge for $85.

I got em off Kijiji.  Right place right time. The $85 was originally priced at $125 but the seller said it was mint and took pics to hide the wear.  I told him it this was supposed to be a condition upgrade from my $115 one.  I was going to walk but we made a deal right then and there.

They sell for under $100 here.

you could get a PAL one and mod it if you are used to 60 hz. i think there is a US seller on ebay sells them for about $90 dollars boxed & new. used ones tend to be cheap as well but shipping from europe would be harsh especially as there are two boxes not one. does composite right out the box though
