Anyone seen this? http://cgi.ebay.com/Turbografx-Turbo-duo-Might-Magic-III-Vasteel-Godzilla-/230604989573?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item35b120e485#ht_500wt_1156

Might and Magic III, Godzilla, Vasteel and Dragon Slayer (and keith courage). Buy it now for $480? Honestly I'm not sure that's a bad deal. I swear I've seen Might and Magic and Godzilla both go for over $200 by themselves.


It's a bad deal, don't even think twice about it. And no, Godzilla never goes for anywhere near $200, not even on eBay.


I wouldn't pay that.  But I honestly think if the seller split that set up, they would be able to get $480 on ebay.  Godzilla $150, Might & Magic $150, Vasteel $50, Dragon Slayer $30, Keith Courage $100.


Hhahahhhahhahahahahahahaaha.

A local flea market video game store has a bare turbo without anything, not even the dust cover for $90!!!! But then I picked up Metal Storm for NES for $5 so I didn't say anything

Heck yeah!! Metal Storm is an awesome game. It is actually my favorite game on the NES. I love being able to manipulate gravity mid-air in jump.

SignofZeta: What a quintessentially PCEFX thread. Someone complains about nothing, multiple Bible-length posts discussing who's a bigger a$$hole follow. You're both pretty big a$$holes. Let's call it a tie.

$150 folder of promotional Turbob stuff from a CES show and a $200 bundle of promotional Turbob mailers including one of the videotapes.  Move the decimal point one place to the left and I might bite, though even then I'd still feel unclean.

$200 auction: Total insanity. I paid $1 for the video not too long ago. The catalogs aren't worth their weight in platinum, either, so....

...at least for the gouging of $150, you get something that is genuinely harder to find.

I agree, $15 is still painful for a goddamn folder + sheets.

Ridiculous. From the same seller....Like new Ys III for $500:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Ys-III-Wanderers-Ys-TurboGrafx-CD-1991-/180653703958


It has the original price tag of $29.99 and a 50% off sticker on the box. It should sell for $14.99 not $500.

What the dick?  :evil:

NES gouging much?


Whoa...why so much for Metal Storm? I noticed other auctions going from $25 - $35 for loose cart only copies. What gives? (other than greed)  #-o
