LOL I will! She sounded kinda hot on the phone. Lets see what happens lol. Funny when I used to work installing computers in peoples home, youd be shocked at how many freaky chix wanna get down. Its like they all have this fantasy of getting it on with a sexy delivery guy.....<---used to be sexy but not anymore lol

Excellent score. There's a few people around here looking for Neutopia and Neutopia II. They would have been good for trades to get you some other titles. It's inspiring to see that this stuff IS in the wild and it seems to be abundant.

Crazy pick ups, even more than what i had with those TG-16 games. I'll meet up by you work when we tag team the Old Lady and get down for some Turbo Goodness, lol.

Wow man. Aren't you the same guy that picked up Magical Chase on a random deal? Where are you meeting these people?

Damn. Was this a Craigslist deal too? Do the Duo and TE work well?
Title: Re: Found a lead for some more Turbo Goodness!!**UPDATED WITH VIDEO**
Post by: syphic on October 10, 2012, 05:17:34 PM
Duo seems to be working ok. Im looking for my AC for the Turbo Express to try it out. I went thru the games and Beyond Shadowgate is missing the poster that is advertised, Dragon Slayer has a map and so does Vasteel. The cd games are all mint.

Wow, another awesome score. Man, makes me want to drive 300+ miles from Norcal down to Socal to pick up the rest.

Sweet score! Is all this going in your personal collection or are you selling some of it?

I am trying for a complete collection. I have accumulated some doubles that ill probably be trading or selling here soon. I coulda been a greedy bastard and switched out some of the crappy games for rarer titles that I already have to flip but thats not my style. I love the TG-16 and I want all the games!!!
Title: Re: Found a lead for some more Turbo Goodness!!**UPDATED WITH VIDEO**
Post by: CPTRAVE on October 11, 2012, 08:01:41 AM
Yeah, let us know of the doubles you have.
Title: Re: Found a lead for some more Turbo Goodness!!**UPDATED WITH VIDEO**

Post by: syphic on October 11, 2012, 09:48:20 AM
Im in the Riverside area but work out in LA county so its easy for me to find scores all over the area. If theres a deal in LA then im already out here during the week. If there is a deal out in The Inland Empire then i can hit it up when im off work on the way home. This weekend i plan to go thru all my doubles and see what i can trade for that includes the duo as well. I dont need 3. Also Fifty, I have Super System Card 3.0 complete that im debating on selling since I just cant find a TG16 Cd System so hit me up. Plus I felt bad you missed out on my friends deal.
Title: Re: Found a lead for some more Turbo Goodness!!**UPDATED WITH VIDEO**
Post by: Bernie on October 11, 2012, 10:01:08 AM
Fifty is gonna LOVE that!! Good to see guys like you finding this stuff, and sharing it with the gaming community, rather than running to eBay with it to make a buck! Awesome job, to you and your friend.

Shut the front door! Man, that'd be awesome! Whining does pay off! Shoot me a PM with your asking price and we'll see if we can make a deal. :dance:

Agreed. Really glad you and rob are spreading the turbo love! Wish I was close to Socal.

Here you go Fifty. Let me know if you wanna pass so I can see if someone else would like it. Its nice and white and only has 1 flaw. See Picture 1 bottom right corner. The dumb f*ck who owned this before closed the case with the manual not seated properly so it creased it a bit. But these are hard to find so beggars cant be choosers lol.
Title: Re: Found a lead for some more Turbo Goodness!!**UPDATED WITH VIDEO**
Post by: FiftyQuid on October 11, 2012, 05:18:05 PM
Pity about that one crease. It's immaculate other than that. I echo your "dumb f*ck" comment. I'm sure the guy that owned it 20 years ago closed it and was like, "What the hell? Why won't you close damnit!?" If only he knew.
That crease doesn't bother me in the least. PM incoming.

You guys kick ass! I wish more like yall came in here. Mostly the ones coming here to sell what they find are trying to get as MUCH as possible. Which, isnt the end of the world, but damn some of the prices I have seen thrown out there. Thanks guys for keeping this stuff in the community that appreciates it! :)

I was inspired by you guys and decided to check out our local flea market. I was dumb founded and I came across some turbobs. I acted like I didn't know anything about turbografx. He wanted $200 for the whole set ups but l talked him down to $150. Not quite a steal but not too shabby either.

That's not a bad deal, since you got the Turbo Express and the TG-16 at the same time.
