My LIKE NEW Turbo in box is up for sale
« on: July 11, 2016, 03:02:14 PM »
NOTE: The initial price on this was way too high. I have since lowered it to a starting bid of .99 to be completely fair. Thanks.

Parting is such sweet sorrow but I realized I'm content with just owning my Duo.

I've had this practically brand new TurboGrafx-16 sitting in storage for YEARS. I only had it hooked up for a brief period before I put it back in it's box. Comes with everything (including Keith's Courage) but the printed materials it came with originally. Not sure where those went to.  :-k

Hoping it goes to a great Turbo collector. Recently sold my Camp California with some help from the guys here. Thanks again everyone.

Starting bid is $250. As soon as someone bids, the Buy It Now price goes away.

Brought it down to $800. Last few in this condition (practically new out of box) sold for $900 so I think I'm being fair. Besides, the Buy It Now option goes away when someone bids.

I came.

"Practically BRAND NEW except for including NONE of the paper shit that I can't remember who I sold it to. Also, never mind the crushed corner and torn to shit parts- MINT CIB MOTHERf*ckERS!!!"

J/K....

I really came.

Sooo honesty isn't the best policy?

Guys some of you are crapping on me for the BIN price. Thats only there for the people who can drop that much immediately. If they want it that bad it's there's.

I'm a collector and hardcore fan. Don't think I'm being unfair here.

Those plastic seals often don't come off when you've left them on this long, so those items will likely never look great.

Parting is such sweet money! I bought my duo for to much so let me see if I can get some back with this "like new" title I came up with. Thanks for being there for the community, best of luck!

sorry to shit on your parade but 800 is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much to be asking on system that isnt new.

it looks great no doubt about it but its "like new" but its not "new". theres a difference. the system has been played a few times according to your description on ebay so you can't sell it at factory sealed new price.

OK, I've taken some of the feedback I've gotten here into consideration and lowered the Buy It Now price to $650.

I really do think this is in the realm of fairness and I want to be fair to those in the community.

You all helped me sell my Camp California so I appreciate your advice and help.
