Has it declined yet? There is one for $275 I offered 75.00 and was declined.
We should all make an offer for USD$50.00 maybe he will get the hint. :lol:

The one I have is in better shape anyways. :dance:

Any truth to the claim that only 1200 US 3.0 cards were made?

Making lowball offers to gouging fools is fun and all, but maybe we should start making realistic offers. What the item is actually worth. :)

If you really want to send a message, why not send a link to the only System 3.0 card that has sold in eBay's history, which went for $150 with the 4-in-1?

I just found this listed
http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEC-TurboGrafx-16-Black-Console-With-CDROM-Unit-/140783890548?pt=Video_Games&hash=item20c75fb074

I mean really, the TG16 is cracked the control port is not 100% functional and no cables to go with it and he wants that much. What a joke.
Oh And no system card  :shock:

True. But, I believe that will send a better message. If sellers receive tons of realistic offers for what games and consoles are worth it may make a difference. I may be being too optimistic here but what's there to lose?

$350??? :shock:

Makes me sorta glad I snagged my complete SSC 3.0 when I did back in '02. Bought it from a online store for 17 GBP, still have the receipt. Can't remember what it was in USD though. $35 comes to mind... could be wrong. Either way, people these days are nuts, anyone else see another possible video game crash in the near future? :(

When it first came out it was like 99.00 with the 3-1 CD or the other option for 69.00 for the Super System card by itself. Mail order only.
