Title: Sealed TG-16 games on eBay
Post by: soop on April 18, 2012, 10:51:24 PM
Right, I hope I'm not ruining this for someone here with their eye on this, but I spotted this and thought I should let you guys know:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Turbo-Grafx-TG16-PC-Engine-LOT-13-Games-Boxed-NEW-SEALED-NR-Free-US-SHIPPNG-/230778396167?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35bb76de07

I'm not interested, but I'm guessing someone here will be.

Very similar to this lot:

I'm guessing these games are quite common, even brand new?

Yeah, they're not exactly rare, and they're definitely not worth ~$30 each as part of a lot.

Wow for commons, Do people really get that much of a hardon for complete sealed games? Just sad really.

Yeah, I might pay an extra $5 or so for a sealed game so I know it will be super minty (although I usually buy them at typical used prices or less if possible). Even if it's a game I already own I'll be cracking that baby open right away, so the only points is the crisp manuals for me.
