Oh wow, I wish I did, some a$$hole reseller sold me CIB Valis II, cib Valis III, CIB Ys book I and II, CIB Legendary Axe II and CIB Bonk three for $1,100a little while ago. XD

Were the games talon delivered by the eagles from Lord of the Rings? If they were....I tip my hat and nod ever so slightly to you sir.

Found a seller who's willing to sell me complete in jewel case Neutopia, Neutopia II for $200, what do you guys think, good deal or bad?

Bad; with patience, you can do much better.  There are several completed eBay auctions that ended at ~$45 and $100 (respectively), so he's asking for a 40% premium plus saving eBay's fees.

Years worth, yes.  Don't forget that shipping will increase the overall costs a bit, but their prices have always been more than fair.  I got a few Turbo items in the last few months from them, so Loom and Adams Family may not still be in stock (from page 1 of this thread).  Be prepared for a bit of a wait in ordering, as I understand, a lot of other collectors found out and have been submitting a ton of orders.

Yeah, Loom certainly caught my eye, so many awesome games I could add to my collection, seems too good to be true, wish they had a stick count, and hope a$$hole resellers don't buy it all up and jack the price up, seems like a nesting ground for those vultures lol, that's why um sceptical, but thank you so much for showing me that site, quite a few games on there I was gonna cave in and buy from that guy I mentioned, but this site has most of them at like 20% the cost, now I just need to get a credit card before its too late lol.

Well, I emailed the guy right away, he's not taking any more orders, he's flustered and can't do some of the orders he's already got, shiiiiit lol.

There is also another site that has a good reputation on PCEFX, though I have never had luck with e-mail ordering.  It is better to call them.  I have never ordered from them, but their prices are fair.  Not as good as CC&G, but fair.  Also, check out their price pdf for an idea of what you should be paying otherwise.

only thing worse than sellers asking these prices, is people paying them.

I'm sadly limited to ebay almost exclusively....I've seen all of 4 turbo items in the wild in the past 5 years and two of the four were Keith Courage.  :x

I'm just getting into Turbo collecting so I'm not super picky (held off due to the cost and lack of local availability for a while) and found an ok beginner/commons lot recently, almost all in case with instructions:

Battle Royale
China Warrior
Double Dungeons
King of Casino
Power Golf
Yo Bro
Keith Courage (chip only)

For 65$ shipped. I had Power Golf and Keith already so that was really only 5 games for 65$. May not be the best but I can live with 13$ per game as I just don't have many other options and am anxious to build my collection right now.

BTW I have ordered from the above mentioned Collector's Cards and Games before....very nice guy, slow as hell to get your stuff or even a response some times.
