F/S: Turbografx 16 games in "a$$hole f*cked Me Over" Sale

[Firebomber7]

IF someone came in here and told us how their house burned down or got nailed by a tornado or something and they lost their whole collection and was looking to buy a cheap Duo to replace their lost one... I'd send that person a free Duo, but this situation, no my charity has limitations.

I lost my whole collection trying to appease a woman...  *hint, hint*

Then again, I'm not crying too badly for a free one!

More on topic... these threads are crazy! If it was me that received the Duo, I'd try to see if it was an easy fix first (and NOT try it with a CDR first!). If it was fixed, as it was in this case, AND the promised PS3 was broken, the correct thing to do is EITHER send the Duo back OR acquire another equivalent PS3 (buy new if needed) and send him exactly what he was expecting. Anything else is dead wrong, which is exactly what happened.

The OP seems like a real tool.

I experienced the same thing back in 2005... I pretty much sold my whole collection except my Atari 800 stuff, because the woman I was engaged to didnt like my video game hobby.  I was young, dumb, and foolish.  I wont make that mistake again!

So I can definitely feel your pain on that one

On the note of free duos, do keep an eye out, at some point here I will be raffling off a free US duo   It'll be before the end of this year.

Even though I just became a member of teh "Duo Club" with my purchase of a Duo-R, may I please please enter this future raffle?

I havent decided what the rules / regs will be on the raffle, but there will be some   Probably at least a minimum post or time on the forum requirement   I'll have to decide on some hoops for peeps to jump through.

Sheesh! Fair enough.

A US Turbo Duo is still on my "to buy" list, but I don't want to have to sell my pancreas to get one. If I get lucky one day I want it to be on these forums.

Really? Sweet! I will win it and trade it to Tats for an Ave6 controller and a loose copy of Gunhed!

Or a PCE Duo-something

Nothing against Turbochips!

It will be region modded or not at the winners discretion.

jeesh, this is all too familiar.  in late 2007~early 2008 I sold off my entire collection except my Sega Dreamcast and games.  Trying to fend off late payments and bill collectors for a person with a Horrendous spending problem.....

years later - lesson learned.

Seems like that's what we do with woman, To save my relationship I sold off everything cept my Nintendo and NEC stuff. At that time I had every system out up to the then Current Dreamcast. SEGA master, Genesis with every single add on sega made for them. Even had genesis master system add on. Atari's the hard to find working Jag CD, 3DO. I had a shit load of games to. I remember cutting school cause Toys r us had Sega CD games dirt cheap along with 3DO games. Atleast I was smart enough to hold onto my TG and Nintendo stuff.

I don't know, but I read through most of this thread a while back, and decided that perhaps buying from this individual might not be the best idea. At least, not without Paypal or some other form of protection.
