Turbo Gouging on Ebay ( r.i.p. - gouging much )

[bob]

So I consider this a gouge.  The auction is for Godzilla (disc only);
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Godzilla-TurboGrafxCD-1993-Disc-Only-/130951372149

But low and behold the same seller has the case and manual for sale as well;
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Godzilla-TurboGrafxCD-1993-Case-And-Art-Only-/130951372362

So this guy is splitting up a game with the hopes of getting more money for it.  Moron.

I don't think he even has the manual. It's just the back artwork.

Correct, no manual

No, he got the sealed one which had been posted on Half.com for quite a while.  I have no clue who got this one.

At almost $5800 I hope they got a bottle of lube with it too.

[tggodfrey]

A bottle?  How about a 5000 gal Vat of lube?  Idiots........I hope it doesnt work too.

[Necromancer]

Collectards probably like it dry.

Really wishing I had one those right now..  Be a sold bitch....

Here is a good one.  VGA graded Pac-Land.  You can get it sealed on Ebay for $50 shipped from two other sellers right now, and grade it yourself if your into that thing and still save $400+ I would imagine.

If you wait I bet Pac-Lands come up all the time sealed for $30-40 to further enhance the savings.

NEC Turbo Grafx 16 System Complete In Box & Original Components GREAT - $225 (Briargate)

To all my TG16 and PC Engine gamers. I am selling one of my TG16 systems from my personal collection. One owner. I have had this since day one. System is used with light surface scratches from normal use. But no damage or cracks. See pics. System comes with original Box, manuals and official NEC turbo pad and official AC and RF adapters. I still play this and yes it works just fine. System comes with box and manual and styrafome shell and the all rare black label "thank you" cardboard that goes with the styrafome. Box is in good condition. See pics. When I got the system from my parents and after a few years of using the box as a carry case I decided to cover the entire box with clear glossy tape. It has kept the box nice and shiny and in one piece.

Not to mention the tape can never be removed if desired. I'll have to assume that he did that when he was a kid because no adult would ever maim their box as such. Or not.

I haven't had a chance to read this thread because I was busy laminating my WiiU instruction manuals/boxes/RF adapters.

NJ is incredibly humid in the summer and I should have laminated this stuff weeks ago. Oh well. Hopefully, i preserved the cardboard before it got too soggy.

Really? Wow. That one had been on Half for about five years.

This is the first time I've heard that replacing the CD drive gears increases read times to double a normal Turbo CD. Why isn't this amazing mod being done to all CD systems?
