WTB: Valis III (Boxed, Turbo CD)
« on: August 07, 2017, 09:17:40 AM »
Hi all,

I'm currently in the market for a reasonably-priced copy of Valis III on the Turbo CD, complete in box. I'd prefer that the box be in decent shape (the better condition, the, well, better), preferably with the inner styrofoam-insert, too.

PM me if you're willing to sell, with price (and pics, if possible). Thanks! :)

Welcome Aboard.  Great game.  very fun.  some tricky platforming, but I enjoy the charm of this entry into the Valis series.  I think the attack and movement are probably the best feeling of the three games.  Great choice and happy gaming with this one.

Say I do have one. How long will it be before you flip it for profit?

Anyways, yes, I am genuinely interested in buying a boxed copy of this game (and, no -- I have no intention of flipping it any year soon, here). It's strictly for my personal collection.

No, I've been rebuilding my TG-16 library after many years, and am trying to repurchase several of the CD titles that I used to own -- Valis III being one of the biggies. I have no intention of reselling anything on eBay. Just last night, in fact, I pulled the trigger on a boxed copy of Valis II:

Well, I've never seen fully-complete, boxed copies going for less than three figures out in the wild, so it is what it is, I guess. A non-boxed copy going for $109.95 just went up yesterday, but I was looking for a reasonably-priced complete copy, if possible.

Welcome to Pcenginefx...  It would help if you post an introduction thread here letting us know a bit about yourself and your history with the TurboGrafx-16.

Generally it's a good idea to get to know people first, spend some time with the community, "lurk moar" before asking for their goods. Also, dig through peoples sales threads. It's not like people here are itching to unload tons and tons of Turbo goods.

I've been sitting on a pile of sealed copies of Valis III, just waiting for a buyer. But no one wants them. :(
