Let me just be clear, I still think $149 is WAY TO MUCH MONEY. Also when did Order of the Griffon get released with a hard case and plastic insert? Did i miss something.

Well the condition of the box is much better for the first one, but $100 better? Hmm...

Turbo Grafx 16 (Order Of The Griffon) RARE Turbo Duo CIB! PC Engine NEC

LOL HELL NO.
Why would they buy that one when they could have gotten

But i see a fool showed up with his money.

That would be poweredupvideogames for ya, he does that with almost every auction he has put up and yet people are stupid enough to pay for it. Check out his zelda windwalker auction, about laughed my ass off.

Wow, that just went up today.  I didn't think it was going to sell for a second.  Shit... I have one of these and now I'm thinking I should put it up just so I can buy more Turbo stuff with the profits.

It didn't.  That '100% complete' OotG is missing the plastic tray in exchange for a recycled Keith Courage case.

Add this douche-bag to the list..... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Turbo-Grafx-16-Street-Fighter-1-and-2-Combo-/170867528537?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item27c87f9359
He has 0 feedback.  I doubt anyone will buy this off him.  Well... I hope no one does.

He probably meant to list it at $15.99. As bad as crazy gougers get, this would be like listing SMB/Duck Hunt for $100. They are high profile cheap games.

^I highly doubt it since he has a "buy it now" price also. What are the chances he listed both prices by accident. He sells chess stuff so this is what he does with his pawns.

Yeah, especially SFII'. That game can be had for less than $5 if you look around.

I sent him a message.

I hope you do realize....that both of these games can be had, right here on eBay, for under 15.00 each.  If ya wanna sell these, might want to adjust your starting bid.


I thought it was decent, and to the point actually.  Here is his response.

Hi Jimilee2012,
Thank you for the advice! Next time you see me overpricing something, don't be so helpful. I don't know you and don't value your opinion.

Thanks,
the3trajes


What an ass..

So I sent this.

Wow...  Was trying to be helpful, as I am a collector of TG-16/PCengine games and hardware. Any search for these two games would have proved me right.  But since you choose to remain ignorant, enjoy your two games that will never sell at that price. 

Have a nice day

Indeed.  Time to waste some time with seemingly interested party questions.
