Hello friends.
So I recently repaired a friends Turbo Express, and as luck would have it, the planets aligned, and I found ANOTHER Turbo Express on Craigslist.
As suspicious as that sounds :-" But, nothing here is un-kosher.
Anywho, I bought it solely to fix it, and pass it onto someone that has yet to obtain one for their collection. When I bought it, the system was dirty, neglected, and silent. It was sort of like those ASPCA commercials with the depressing music and shelter dogs. On a related note, always opt for a shelter dog! So, I replaced every cap on the board, and cleaned the battery contacts, board, and outside of the system. This thing is squeaky clean, and looks/sounds great!
There are a few minor cosmetic flaws, so i've taken pictures of them, and will list them below. I don't want someone feeling cheated, so I want the potential buyer to know exactly what they're getting.
-Small scuff on top right of the screen. Not noticeable when turned on
-light scuffs on front and on rear of the console near left side of the cart slot. The camera makes them look brighter than they really are, not noticeable unless you tilt it under bright lighting, which i did on purpose.
-one of the battery tabs is a little bent, but it's fully functional, and I tried my best to get it as straight as possible.
-two stuck pixels, one green and one red. Hopefully you can see them in the picture. From what I understand, most units have these. Luckily these aren't terribly noticeable.
Here's some pictures for you:
If you'd like to see video of the audio working, I'll gladly post one on my IG (@pvgluke) for your viewing and hearing pleasure.
So, I'd like to get $200 for the system, but I'm open to offers. I will throw in a TurboVision adapter if I can find the thing too if you want one. I would OPTIMALLY like to do a straight trade for a Persona Q 3dsXL system for my wife. I can't seem to find them around here sadly, and shes a huge persona fan. Any proceeds from this will be going towards one. So if you have one, or have access to one, and totally want a Turbo Express instead, I'll be your buddy,guy.
Shipping with USPS Priority. If feedback or references needed on here, I can provide them, since I mainly lurk. Thanks for looking! Feel free to ask any questions about this system, and I'll do my best to answer them!
