Not turbo related, but I consider this gouging... 5G's for a cart in that shape? I wouldn't even list it as acceptable!

Not sure if this is "Turbo Gouging," but it needs to be posted someplace...

I like how it specifically mentions the most expensive game in the lot sold for $2,500 recently...  but if he did a similar price listing of all the other games, he would be WWWWAAAAAAAYYYY below $15,000.

Expensive and I have no idea as to the validity of the story behind it. The story is pretty damn cool though (If it's true).
All is well. :)

You should check this one, almost 700 just for a carrying bag

Look how big it is.... did that really fit on a Chuck cheese table? Lol I wasn't aware there were chucky cheese pizzas in the early 70's. I thought CC and Showbiz started in the 80's .

Speaking of Showbiz... has anyone seen the documentary of the people who collect the Rock-afire Explosion bands from Showbiz, and reprogram them to perform new music? Strange people, but very entertaining lol

Per Wikipedia:

Chuck E. Cheese's, originally referred to as Chuck E. Cheese’s Pizza Time Theater, was founded by Atari founder Nolan Bushnell.[3] Bushnell’s experience in the amusement park industry, as well as his fondness of The Walt Disney Company, was influential in the conceptualization of the Pizza Time Theatre concept.[7] The first location opened in San Jose, California in 1977, and was labeled as the first family restaurant to integrate food, cheap animated entertainment, and an indoor arcade.[2][3] In 1978, Bushnell purchased the Pizza Time Theatre concept from Atari's then-corporate parent, Warner Communications.[8]
All is well. :)

Atari's Puppy Pong for a cool half mil.


That's some crazy shit there.  Maybe Bushnell will snag it?

I tried to offer what I was willing to pay, which is $49.99, but they won't ship to Canada. Way to narrow down the potential customer base for $700 TG-16 bags.

You're lucky BT.  eBay's Global Shipping Program would have added another $100 to the price easily.
I'm busy playing pinball, but I still drop by to visit.

What do you guys feel is a fair price for the Turbo versions of Therons Quest and Riot Zone? The price for each w/o shipping included?

Riot Zone seems to fluctuate all over the map.  I picked up Crest of Wolf for under $20 off hit-japan not too long ago and it doesn't seem to fluctuate nearly as much.

I can't comment on Dungeon Master though, since I never bothered to pick it up for obey.  I played the heck out of it on my old PC bitd, though. :)

For that ugly thing!? I'm shocked! I doubt the winner pays up.
