That's a little steep for the forums, IMO. :) Here is why I say that. 1. Not a Turbo Duo controller included 2. 3rd party power supply 3. The system has quite a bit of scuffing. 4. Even tho there is a new laser assembly installed, all caps on these should be replaced. These systems are famous for that. :( Just several months ago, I was able to buy a boxed Turbo Duo, with all original hook-ups, and a Super CD game pack-in that the seller swapped out for the Ys pack-in since I had it already. I got this package for $300.00 shipped.
With that said, you may have better luck if you adjust the price some in the forums. :mrgreen: Good luck with your sale. :P

Just added obo, As for price just going on what the last few have sold for on here.

I did some searching, its hard to find exactly what some sold for on here since usually the original poster edits the post showing it to be sold, often removing the asking price.
https://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=11517.0 Duo-R + s-video and region mods. $240 shipped
https://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=11523.0 US Duo - recapped + original PSU and Pad
https://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=10269.0 PCE Duo - doesnt seeem to have sold $200
Being a partially capped unit, but with a new laser, I'd say $175 to $190 shipped is what to expect :)
Good luck with the sale, and thanks for offering it here before ebay!

Granted, you would get a slightly higher price on Ebay or maybe even Craigslist. Yes this is a forum dedicated to NEC consoles, and despite that, prices can't be that much lower just because of it. I would say knock off $30 off what you see on Ebay for seller fees and shipping.

I don't think the price is that bad.
While I did sell my US Duo here for something like $125 with original controller and power supply, it had a huge Yuna sticker on it so wan't any better cosmetically than this. I thought I was sort of ripping the guy off honestly (I think it was either Nat or Necromancer) since my Duo R only cost me $65.

No, the price is certainly not bad. :) Just a little higher than the norm for the forums, mainly due to the reasons I listed. Whoever gets it is certainly going to have to get it capped, since its almost certainly going to have some failure in that area on the ones not replaced already. With that said, your system will most likely sell here since you added the OBO to it. :) I'm positive that you will get decent offers.

Whatever price I ask people will offer less Guaranteed.
There was nothing wrong with the sound. I just installed the sound section caps because
I was in there and the first thing people ask is if there are sound problems with the DUO.
Again it’s OBO.
I would keep it but I have a DUO-R with BlueBMW mod chip installed :lol:

Oh, the Duo R systems are SEXY! I have one of those as well. :)

That Yuna sticker made it BETTER. :)

I think the price is fair. Those scratches will come out with a little Turtle Wax, Armour All or Mother's "Back to Black".

I personally don't have a Duo, but $200 is the range I've been looking in.

what's the difference between a Duo and a Duo-R. and was a Duo-R released in the US?

Duo-R was released in Japan, is white, does not have a headphone jack, and the audio caps were more reliable.
The Turbo Duo was released in US (and has a Japan counterpart called PC Engine Duo), is black, has a headphone jack, and the audio caps are very prone to leaking.

Not one pm or offer, guess it’s going to eBay tonight.

Its only been three days. Give it a little more time than that. If you want to sell it fast you need to make it cheap. If you want fair money for it youll just have to wait for someone. Ebay is quick but no guarantees and fees etc.. hardly worth the trouble anymore.

yeah 9% now + paypal fees. crazy

Well damnitman.. I was actually thinking about making an offer. Oh well. :(
