Sapphire
« on: May 19, 2010, 10:32:32 PM »
Hello and sorry for not posting for ages (not played my PC Engine for a while).

I'm looking to sell my Sapphire (original, not the boot version), but I don't know its current value.
Can anyone advise?


Fake on left, original I'm selling on right.

Sorry if I am breaking any rules.

Anyone got an idea of value?
I'm sure it must have cost me about $300, but that was a while ago.
Maybe its gone up or down since then.

I would still wait for some more clarification but I'm pretty sure it's still at about that same price.

Is it factory sealed?  Or is that just a protective cover?

Just a cover. I always play the games I own.
Hopefully it is now sold (pending payment).

Yeah, complete with spinecard and no scratches etc.
Re-invested the money in an XRGB-3 which should make my PCE (and other retro stuff) look real nice.

I was just wondering if Sicboy057's Sapphire purchase included the spinecard.  I see yours does GundarN.  What's the best way to identify a legit from a fake?  I've read about the Arcade logo in the corner is different (original is darker I believe, which the photos up top confirm.)

This page is about as good as it gets for telling the two versions apart.

Yeah, that's the page I used before I bought mine to know what was what, but the fact the seller included the real one and a fake, I couldn't go too far wrong.
