All games are US versions complete with jewel case, manual and game unless noted (cardboard boxes not included). Shipping in the USA is $4 for 1 or 2 games, $6 for 3 or 4 games, or free shipping if you buy 5 or more games. International shipping varies by location.

Damn man, you letting all your stuff go? :( Hate to see ya lose everything. On another note, you guys here can buy from him in confidence. My item was sent quickly, and in MINT condition.
-
I don't plan on letting everything go. I'm just putting it out there to see who wants what. I don't mind parting with 10, 20 or 30 games for some extra cash for the holidays. My collection is a living, breathing collection. I sell. I buy. I collect. I sell. I buy. Turbo is one of my favorite game systems of all-time.
-
Plus I'm close to a full set of US Sega Master System games, so I could use some extra $ to complete that set.

I also collect Genesis games.

I have both of those games. If you have Alex Kidd in Shinobi World for the Sega Master System, I'd trade for that. :-)
-
I gotta say I love dealing with everyone on this forum. Turbo fans and game collectors in general are elite in my humble opinion. Thank you for helping me out with $/trades in exchange for some of these great games.

PM me if you want a price. Again, I go mainly by the rarity guide and not ebay since not much is selling on Ebay anymore. There is a severe lack of buyers for just about anything on Ebay. Also, these games aren't really for sale. I mean, they are if you really want them at the price I'm asking or at least around that price or a fair offer for a bundle of games. I'm always willing to lower prices for the good people here. I just won't give them away. These games mean a lot to me. :-)

I don't mean to be rude, but things on ebay aren't selling?

Most of the auctions and BINs are sold. There are plenty of buyers on Ebay. In fact, that is what pisses off this forum the most, that people are willing to pay ebay-level prices for turbografx games, driving the prices up.
Rarity Guide sucks, it is massively out dated, and most of the rarities were gotten from the Dept. of Statistics Pulled From Sphincter Regions. I actually petitioned the mods of reddit.com/r/gamecollecting to remove Rarity guide from its informational sidebar, because the pricing and rarities were sooo inaccurate. Here is the PM I sent the mods.
Rarity guide does a massive disservice to new members of the community, as the information is either massively outdated ($prices), or just straight up wrong (rarities), to the point of being laughable.
Some examples to convince you:
Sculptor's Cut is listed as $38 loose. It is routinely sold for $100-150.
Hagane is listed for $35 loose. I wish. $200-300 these days.
Sculptor's Cut is listed as 82% rarity. Harvest Moon is listed as 81%. These aren't even in the same class (rarest game for the system, vs. uncommon)
Hagane is a laughable 51% rarity.
Chew Man Fu is listed as the 2nd rarest TG16 game, at 94%. This is ridiculous, it is actually uncommon.
Legend of Hero Tonma is listed at 58%. It is ridiculously rare.
World Sports Competition is listed at 17%. It is one of the rarest games for the system
It took me 10 minutes to find these absurd numbers. This information is wrong, bad, and we should discourage its use.

Don't get me wrong, its your stuff, and clearly, if you don't want to sell it, keep it! If people want to pay you the price you want, then sell it! This rant was more aimed at rarity guide than your prices or policies.
-
Bumped for shipping update. Get free shipping in the US if you buy 5 or more games. 1-2 games is $4 shipping, 3-4 games is $6 shipping since with packaging the weight will be above the first class mail limit. Not desperate to sell the games since I love the Turbo and my collection, but I'm willing to part with some of these games for a fair price.
-
Most of the auctions and BINs are sold.
Rather than cherry pick a pair of titles to prove some point, I searched for just plain turbografx; of the first two pages of completed auctions, 231 of the 400 were unsold (58%).
In fact, that is what pisses off this forum the most, that people are willing to pay ebay-level prices for turbografx games, driving the prices up.
Yep, a wise man once said "there's a sucker born every minute". Obviously not enough to buy up all the overpriced stuff on eBay, though, else there wouldn't be so many unsold auctions.

I sent you another PM

Dude, don't mess up my thread by taking things personally. If you have something to say, say it in a PM. And in my opinion, things on Ebay are not selling. I've had a huge dropoff in that last 3-6 months, and so have others. If you expect to get games free, or super cheap, find another seller. I don't give stuff away for super cheap prices, and I don't price gouge either. I don't believe the rarity guide is out of date. Are some things on that site a bit out of date? Sure. But I don't go by Ebay prices either. I've done great deals with people here, sold about a dozen games here recently at good prices with free shipping, so don't get all hurt because I wouldn't sell you Cadash and Parasol Stars for $10 shipped. :-) Thank you...

I'm so sorry to hear you're having trouble profiting on our hobby. Have you...uhm, ever tried ACTIONING anything on ebay? Starting at, like, a dollar? I get watchers and bids for retro video games faster than anything else I've ever sold with the possible exception of Beta Magic Cards. Retro games invariably attract a bidding war and end way higher than I thought possible.
Maybe this isn't true, but it sounds like you want to sell these here for more than you can get on ebay. If so, I suggest you run for the hills.
These games mean a lot to me....I don't mind parting with 10, 20 or 30 games for some extra cash for the holidays... Turbo is one of my favorite game systems of all-time.
:-k
Contradict much?
My collection is a living, breathing collection. I sell. I buy. I collect. I sell. I buy.
Again, I go mainly by the rarity guide and not ebay since not much is selling on Ebay anymore.
IF you're a real collector and IF you're a big-shot dealer and IF the Turbo is your favorite system, then you should know approximate prices for every game in the tiny library. You keep talking about your fair prices, why don't you just post them? The only sellers who come around here pointing to price guides and rarity lists are the ones trying to justify inflated prices (like your $10+ TV Sports games).

I have 100% feedback on Ebay and have sold many games and bought many more games than I've ever sold. I'm no dealer, that's for sure. I'm not trying to justify any inflated prices. If you don't think Cadash is worth $50 shipped, offer $30 or $40. I may accept it, I may not. Again, I sold all of my CD games here within days at prices people thought were very fair and even paid for shipping. And I don't see anything wrong TV Sports games priced at $10 shipped. That's $6 plus $4 shipping. No one has even made an offer or requested those crappy games, so I have no idea what you're talking about anyway. People have mainly expressed interest in the same games: Bonk's Revenge, Cadash, Parasol Stars, Splatterhouse. I already sold Raiden and Psychosis for good prices to good people. The moral of the story is not to take it personally if you can't get Parasol Stars for $10 shipped by Express Mail. If you don't agree with the quoted prices, or feel they're too high, or you want a bundle deal, free shipping, just make a counter offer.

Come on guys, he has been extra reasonable from the beginning and willing to cut his prices for those who are serious about buying. Our board members have benefitted and are benefitting from his sales and I think it's time we backed off.
Don't like his prices? Outstanding, take it offline and negotiate with him.
Can we do that?
-
Does the TV Sports Series Command alot like over $10
I see one on ebay for $16 shipped CIB no Cardboard..That's too much for a Old Football Game
But the OP can dictate the price he wants, $4 for Sports Games regardless want system it's on
Just my 2 cents

I seriously didn't mean anything personal. Nor did I expect Cadash and Parasol Stars shipped for $10, that is absurd. $5 would be reasonable. (Joking!) Also, you did a great drop with selling those CDs. Started high, and worked your way low.
I didn't mean to thread crap, I was just stating my problems with rarity guide. It sounds like you won't be dropping your prices, as these have more value to you. Anyway, no offense was meant, you just gave me an opportunity to prosthelytize about the failings of rarity guide.
Most of the auctions and BINs are sold.
Rather than cherry pick a pair of titles to prove some point, I searched for just plain turbografx; of the first two pages of completed auctions, 231 of the 400 were unsold (58%).
I guess I did cherry pick, however, it was an accident. Your method is more fair. It just happened that was just the first two items I searched, as I was interested in those titles. It was not intentional.
That said, it would be interesting to do a comparison of VGPC values, and unsold items. As the gouging thread points out, often, many sellers list items 2x-5x higher than current fair market value. I doubt many items go unsold that are within range of the current FMV.
I'm not making a claim, either way. I don't sell TG16 stuff on ebay, so I can't even speak from personal experience. That said, sales for the stuff I do sell (N64, SNES, mostly) are doing great.
-
He is a trusted seller also.
I sent him USD $30.00 for two games thinking he still had them, because he sent me a counteroffer which I did not bother to look at until the next day, got excited and sent him the money right away, not realizing on his post they were sold before I could respond.
He sent my money back as soon as he could.
Still want those games :(
-
MotherGunner... people don't upset me, I like the opportunity to set them straight on a few things. I would normally keep all of these TG-16 games, but I am closer to a complete set of Sega Master System games than I am a complete set of TG-16 games, so for now the SMS takes precedence. Like I said earlier, these games aren't really for sale, I have no desire to gut my entire TG-16 collection since that would just kill me. I was just putting it out there to see who was interested in what. I can understand people getting hurt because they can't get Splatterhouse or Bonk's Revenge on the super cheap but I'm always willing to cut deals and work with people who really want the games and care about retro gaming as much as I do. At any price, it's painful to sell any games from my collection.

What games are you looking for? PM Me..
-
Sega, with much respect I ask you to please keep it humble. I realize some of these guys may have hit a nerve (at least) and though your sentiment now is justified, I find no reason to dangle the carrot on this particular sales list to these guys by now sending mixed signals on what you really want to do.
Please consider what you really want to do with these so that guys can take the time to work with you and take some games off your hands.
Let's just avoid misperceptions altogether and keep it civil. =)
-
Is there an official pcenginefx price guide? If there was one it might make sales go more smoothly.
And price Cadash for $10.
:-)
-
So sick of the damn price police on this forum. I bet half the people posting here aren't even interested in anything. I pm'd the seller for a game and made a reasonable offer and we made a deal. No drama at all.
SegaSaturn51195, might want to just post your prices and even if they are high, let buyers make offers. Don't challenge the people posting in this thread to avoid the drama.

Thanks guys.
My humor doesn't come across as well in type vs in person. I wasn't offered $10 for Cadash, that was just a joke because 90% of the people who messaged me were wanted Cadash and I priced it around the $50 point with free shipping. I am a full time collector and love the Turbo but by no means am I an expert like some people who contribute here and devote all their time to the Turbo. The Wii U also just came out and I wanted to pick up a game or two so I figured maybe sell/trade some of my games (I traded some to eStarland... my old Xbox 1). To come up with sales prices I basically looked on the price guide site, eBay, and what the game means to me. I started selling my CD games because I no longer had a Turbo CD, then just figured what the hell I'll post some chip games and see if anyone is interested. It's 99% been a pleasure to talk with everyone and get involved in the site. I apologize if I came off as arrogant.

did you get my other PM?

How much for Cadash?

PM me if you want a price. Again, I go mainly by the rarity guide and not ebay since not much is selling on Ebay anymore. There is a severe lack of buyers for just about anything on Ebay. Also, these games aren't really for sale. I mean, they are if you really want them at the price I'm asking or at least around that price or a fair offer for a bundle of games. I'm always willing to lower prices for the good people here. I just won't give them away. These games mean a lot to me. :-)
Rarity isn't a great resource. They list the rareset TG-16 games as Magical Chase, Bonk 3 and then Chew Man Fu comes in 3rd. Chew Man Fu! However, Cadash is listed at $20 loose, $61 CIB. I'd be willing to give you $30+shipping if the manual is in good shape, and the hu card is not scratched up. Let me know.
BTW, I didn't think a PM wasn't necessary. I know what I'll pay and you know what you want to sell for, if you want to sell.
-
The cardboard box does not add 30 to the value, sorry. More like five or ten. Cadash with the jewel case, manual and game is worth 40 to 50 easily. And rarity guide is the BEST source for pricing. Everybody knows that. Ebay is second, however overpriced. I look forward to your PM.

You are right, the cardboard box does not add $30 to the value, but the game is not worth $50 easily. Rarity Guide is a terrible source for pricing, but that's just my opinion. I'm out.

Oh Fifty, you're such a joker. :-)

He is a trusted seller also.
I sent him USD $30.00 for two games thinking he still had them, because he sent me a counteroffer which I did not bother to look at until the next day, got excited and sent him the money right away, not realizing on his post they were sold before I could respond.
He sent my money back as soon as he could.
Still want those games :(
I just want to mention, its actually kind of rude to sell to another party while negotiating a price with someone. Granted, I dont usually just place things on hold right off the bat when someone ask a price in a general inquire, but once you start general negotiations on a price deal of some sort its generally considered polite to give the person 24-48 hrs to reply back since they are usually committed to making a transaction, especially if you sent them payment info, and if you cant wait that long and decide to sell it elsewhere, then to at least drop them a courtesy pm letting them know you're a impatient cunt so they wont send you payment by mistake.
-
My philosophy is the first who pays gets it. Life's too short to waste days waiting for a response and negotiating over a couple bucks. That philosophy has lead me to success and perfect feedback.
-
All I can say is if you're interested in a game or bundle contact me with a fair offer. Everybody knows an asking price is only a starting point. I'll listen to any offers.
-
My philosophy is the first who pays gets it. Life's too short to waste days waiting for a response and negotiating over a couple bucks. That philosophy has lead me to success and perfect feedback.
And then you create problems like having someone submit payment when the items were already sold out from under them, due to your total impatience and utter lack of communication. Its a dickish thing to do, and given what you just said, confirms you go by a dick headed sales philosophy. Its good some people have had good transactions with you, but personally, after the above, you wont get my business, via buys or sales.
-
I don't want or need your business. Everyone I've done business with has been completely satisfied and you have no idea what my communication is like. I just don't wait days for people to get back to me. Now step down off your high horse.
-

Evidently I do. Your tone and manner around here is real "take it or leave it" like, and you are a bit obnoxious concerning trying to get money fast at the expense of a collection you supposedly prize so much. You just admitted what a prior person had stated about your business tactics, that you wouldn't wait a day or two, nor were you willing to shoot him a pm to give him the courtesy of letting him know you decided to sell the item to someone else mid-negotiation. It has nothing to do with being on any damn high horse. Its common courtesy concerning forum transactions, communication, and a level of patience. I think pretty much anyone here would tell you this. You conduct yourself poorly here, you will get jumped on, and honestly, I am surprised I am the one bringing that part of this cluster f*ck up. The guy you had to refund should have jumped down your throat about it on here, but he took the high road after getting his money back.
Evidently you have a problem with this thing called courtesy. I can understand 3-5 days as being too long, but at least have the decency to give the person 48 hrs and a message letting him know he needs to pay or the item will be sold to someone else. I mean, its cool another noob person has yet again arrived to dump their collection of TG stuff before riding off into the sunset. But alas, yet again, they bring that a-typical attitude of someone who has no idea how to handle sales, or feigns as much at any rate. :roll:
-
Oh Fifty, you're such a joker. :-)
Not sure what you mean by this, but if you're suggesting that Cadash is worth more than $35 dollars you need to go back to school. Anyone that uses RarityGuide as the be all, end all of pricing is delusional. If you insist on using it as a reference I'll buy your CIB copy of Magical Chase for $720 right now. While your at it throw me your CIB of Dead Moon for $27 and CIB Legend of Hero Tonma for $64.
-
All talk about price and rarity aside.. I do feel that once someone is interested in something, and there is somewhat of a deal in place, contact should be made before selling it to someone else. Kinda just in case someone got busy or anything, and just forgot. I don't mean wait days, just some sort of contact. If by the next day you have no response, then I'd move on. Its just proper forum etiquette.

You seem to be flexible on prices and evidently have happy customers; that's great. I'm just going to keep kicking a dead horse here and say that I've never heard a new member spin so much BS so fast.
The above quote claiming Ebay has turned into a tough seller market is the most ridiculous thing I've read here in weeks. Please, for the sake of conversation if nothing else, I'd like to see you even try to defend this statement.
You start a "TurboGrafx Games For Sale" thread and say that "these games aren't really for sale".
You claim to be primarily a buyer/collector yet whine about a "huge downturn" in your ebay sales. Seriously, only a POS reseller would say such a thing. If there WAS an actual downturn in ebay prices and you really did buy more than you sell, you would be reaping the benefits and rejoicing, as would the rest of us.
You seem to be finding buyers here, so why all of the rarity guide bullshit and nonsense preamble about how you're so attached to your liquid assets? No need to justify your above-average prices if they're selling. Just sell your stuff and stop the fiction. Or, if you truly don't want to sell your stuff but desperately need cash, list a reserve auction on ebay where every TG enthusiast in the world can see it. Why hawk it to the handful of a$$holes with a 200+ page Gouging thread?

Ebay has become rough for sellers, for video games and other items. It's all we talk about on the Ebay boards. If you don't think sales are down on Ebay, you're simply not using Ebay much or you're not paying attention.
And you can't cherry pick a few games from rarity guide to call it inaccurate. Overall, I find it very accurate, and use it, and Ebay, and my own brilliant mind to form a price base. If you want to buy from someone else, or complain about me using the rarity guide as a base and pricing my games between CIB and loose (closer to CIB), please go ahead. I already sold every single one of my Turbo CDs and several of my chip games. And I won't sell Cadash for less than $50 shipped, if at all. Whatcha gonna do about it, keep complaining? Thanks for the laughs guys. :-)

I'm not trying to get money fast. I just posted those games to see who was interested. But if multiple people express interest, at the fairest, rarity guide based priced, and I feel like selling it, the first who pays gets it. It's that simple. As I told someone else, I have no intention of gutting my whole collection. But after I had great success at quickly selling my Turbo CD collection, I figured I'd test the waters with some of my chip games. And it's been great, minus 1 or 2 immature people. But that's expected. Thanks for the response! I love when you put so much effort into writing me back and showing you care.
-
I'm not even going to respond anymore (I'll respond to serious purchase/trade inquires of course), it's a waste of time and way too negative. I'm happy to sell some of my games to reasonable people who pay a fair price or trade reasonable items. Some people will sell for more, some for less. That's the way it goes.
-
Let the bullshit continue:

I have bought many more games than I've ever sold. I'm no dealer, that's for sure.

And I won't sell Cadash for less than $50 shipped, if at all. Whatcha gonna do about it, keep complaining? Thanks for the laughs guys. :-)
You think I was complaining? Sorry, if it was taken that way. I was just calling you delusional. Anyone that pays $50 for Cadash is overpaying.
-
Well sometimes when you want something valuable, and another seller has it, you overpay. Most people overpay collecting rare video games. That's just the way it is. You really can't expect to pay exactly what it's worth. That's delusional. But I love you Fifty, you put the F in Frugal.
-
You have no proof that most people overpay. That would be like me saying most people are thrifty when it comes to collecting. Either way, Cadash is not rare. Gold is valuable, Cadash is just an old video game. I won't pay what you think it is worth - that's dulusional. You put the R in Reseller.
-
yeah, I paid $25 for cadash earlier in the year.
I'd say ~$30 is a good price.
-
I put the H in "I'd Hit that"

Like others have said $50 for Cadash is nuts...only the impatient "GOTTA HVE IT NAOOOOOOOOO" idiots would pay anywhere near that. MOST people overpay? LOL #-o #-o
-
I paid $20 for CIC Cadash a couple of years ago. Mind you, that was a couple of years ago, but the value didn't magically go up to $50. If buddy wants $50 for it, that's his business, but don't call Fiddy "frugal" for his unwillingness to be ripped off.
Chris
-
I paid a little less than $25 for Cadash (case, instructions, and game) earlier this year. $50 seems really high to me. Maybe it's worth that to you, but obviously you've struck a nerve here. Perhaps you might just want to remove that listing (though personally I think pretty much all your prices are high) from the OP or maybe reduce it to something more reasonably found here in the forums.
-
Awww... Frugal Fifty got all his buddies to post about all the deals they got. :-) Heartwarming, especially during this holiday time of the year. :-)
-

But you're a cheapskate Bartre, that's like saying Ys I & II is worth $25 because I sold it to you for that because I like you. Not accurate at all. That game is worth $35 or more.
-
Sega, I fear you're throwing more fuel on the fire but I guess we can all just put on the big boy pants ;-). On aside note, Bartre got a great deal on that Y's if it's true! He he
-
And again, like I said a hundred times, my prices are base prices and I never intended to sell my entire collection. If someone is interested in a game or a bundle of games, they contact me. We either make a deal or we don't. I've sold over a dozen games already in the last two weeks, and that's more than I ever expected to sell, because like I said, there is a lack of sales on sites like Ebay for games and other items.
But within a few days of posting here, I sold a bunch of games. Whatever I don't sell here I'll put on Ebay or trade to the local retro shop to help complete my SMS collection. Whatever I want to keep I'll keep and enjoy playing or displaying on my shelves. It's been a total win-win situation despite a few of the most cheap/frugal/turbo police scoffing because 1 or 2 games are priced a little high.
-
Sega, I fear you're throwing more fuel on the fire but I guess we can all just put on the big boy pants ;-). On aside note, Bartre got a great deal on that Ys if it's true! He he
It is true, I did sell it to him for $25. If someone gets a special deal for a low price, it doesn't automatically make the game worth that price. Cadash is easily worth $50, and I could have sold it for $40 shipped to someone here but didn't. As an aside, it doesn't matter if someone got Cadash "a few years ago for $25" or not. The game is still worth upwards of $50. I'll also sell some games for cheaper prices to people here, but certainly not all. I understand the game though. Complain that prices are high so the users on the forum can get the cheapest possible price. It's not rocket science. I'm not against it. But I also don't change my prices just because a few frugal turbo police posters complain or make it an issue. And you're right, I love throwing fuel on the fire. :-)
-
Given everything you have posted so far, its pretty clear you are just here to dump your Turbo collection to get fast cash in order to complete other lamer sets. You clearly don't play it, enjoy it, or value it, so you can drop the whole "I love my collection" crap. Someone who loves their collection doesn't put it on the chopping block. What I want to know is, where are loons like you coming from. And who the f*ck is going around telling people like you to come to Pcefx to dump your collection? Also, curious as to your ebay id and feedback. Considering how much of a dick you are on here, I'd wonder just how well of a seller you are on ebay too.

I'm a patient man, I can wait for my games.
I only saw one copy of Ys sell for >$30, and that sold for $40, and was a buy it now, so someone cracked, or was misinformed.
on a side note, there is no end all, be all of pricing.
when I sell stuff, I make it a point to look at at least 3, usually around 5, different sources.
for example, a local shop has a copy of mega man 5 for the NES right now, priced at $50.
does that mean it's worth $50? no, in fact, from the same store less than 6 months ago, I bought my copy for $12.
does that mean it's worth $12? not necessarily.
on ebay, I see loose carts sell at about the $30 price point. (though admittedly there are a couple that sold for much more)
on amazon, the cheapest one at the time of this posting is $32.95 +shipping.
finally, a smaller local shop had one about a month ago, that sat around for a while, priced at $27.
so how do I interpret this?
I'd say the "real" value would be in the high twenties to low thirties, depending on condition.
so what does this mean?
in essence:
have patience, a deal will come, but more importantly

Um, what? As the resident "word definer guy" this is silly. There is no set "what it is worth." Worth is defined by what a person who is willing to pay, so you can't technically overpay on something. When two people (who may or may not love each other) come together and make a transaction on a collectible, they are essentially defining its worth.
I don't follow the general consensus here that eBay is evil. However, expecting HIGHER than eBay prices on a forum is silly. Generally speaking, people should expect LOWER than eBay prices on a forum, for no other reason than the seller isn't losing 12-16% off the top of the sale to start with. Additionally, eBay comes with lots of buyer protections, so the buyer on a forum is taking a risk, which also should factor into a price. I linked to completed auctions/BINs for Cadash, and all of the (non-boxed) closings are in the range of $30-50. So, anyone could go to eBay and get your price, or better.
The whole "nothing sells on eBay" is total and utter horse poo-poo. My eBay sales are doing just fine on items within expected FMV. As a (non-turbografx, so chill peeps!) seller, my sales are doing just fine. Prices on video games are rising (http://www.vgpc.com/). This doesn't happen if things don't sell. Markets in the real world don't work that way, so your "sky is falling" mentality must mean you are expecting over FMV on eBay.
-
Vestcoat, what would we do without you?? No, seriously.
I'd like to throw in my 2 cents. Seller does contradict himself everywhere (games for sale/not really for sell). I picked up Addams Family for the price I'd been hoping to pay, but contacted SS again about some card games in this thread. He said he'd get back to me about Cratermaze, but never did. I wrote him about 2 days later asking if it's still available, and he didn't reply. That really irks me. Have some courtesy.
The game I did buy was packaged poorly, basically wrapped in thick paper, but arrived safely. So thanks, but boo for ignoring my PM.
(And about Cadash, I've seen it sell on eBay a few times for more than $50 (anywhere from 30 to 75 complete). Not trying to draw out a price debate, but it's true.)
-
The whole "nothing sells on eBay" is total and utter horse poo-poo.
+1. I've been wondering HTF his claim could contain even a grain of truth. Maybe the worst of the hyper inflation is over? We had a couple years where MC went from $200 to $400 to $1000; BS went from $70 to $150 to $300, Bonk NES went from $50 to $200. Maybe Saturn's just the late-coming runt of the ebay gougers: no one tipped him about the TG16 boom and he couldn't afford to speculate on the expensive games. Now he's butthurt because he hasn't been able to double his money on Cadash for the last six months. This would explain his "collection" of unboxed commons and why he's moving to even lower hanging fruit like the Master System.
Saturn - congratulations! You're the first to ever get me and our resident gouger sympathizer to agree on something. Could you please post links to these seller forums where the ebay elite are supposedly lining up for the soup kitchen?

Overcharging on some video games to make ends meet? LOL. Please. Did you see the portion of my collection I posted? Do you really think I have to make ends meet by selling some games in my collection for $5 or so more than you think it's worth? Don't make me laugh man. Most of my prices are dead on the rarity guide value (which certain people have a problem with since they want games as cheap as possible) and lower than Ebay. A scant few people on here (frugal and cheap people, like Barte) are used to trading and selling super cheap amongst themselves, or they're just broke, so even a game at fair value would appear 'slightly overpriced' to them. No big deal. Like I said I'm open to all offers, and I sold all my CD games are a bunch of my chip games.
And again, a few immature, cheap, frugal people don't bother me. I actually laugh at it. I loved the picture too, that was so creative.

I wrote him about 2 days later asking if it's still available, and he didn't reply. That really irks me. Have some courtesy.
The game I did buy was packaged poorly, basically wrapped in thick paper, but arrived safely. So thanks, but boo for ignoring my PM.
(And about Cadash, I've seen it sell on eBay a few times for more than $50 (anywhere from 30 to 75 complete). Not trying to draw out a price debate, but it's true.)
I was dealing with dozens of PMs and like I said it's first come, first serve. Some people responded quickly, others didn't not. Also the PM system doesn't automatically keep sent items, so it was harder to keep track of all the requests at first. Someone else bought Cratermaze before you did, so sorry. And you might not have enjoyed it anyway since you think I 'packaged it poorly but it arrived safely.' Next time I'll sell it for half of it's worth and package it with a dozen layers of bubble wrap and give you free shipping. Then people would still complain. I love the clean mentality of the NEC Frugals. Keep it comin'!

Sega, I fear you're throwing more fuel on the fire but I guess we can all just put on the big boy pants ;-). On aside note, Bartre got a great deal on that Ys if it's true! He he
meh, not really.

I'm a patient man, I can wait for my games.
I only saw one copy of Ys sell for >$30, and that sold for $40, and was a buy it now, so someone cracked, or was misinformed.
on a side note, there is no end all, be all of pricing.
when I sell stuff, I make it a point to look at at least 3, usually around 5, different sources.
for example, a local shop has a copy of mega man 5 for the NES right now, priced at $50.
does that mean it's worth $50? no, in fact, from the same store less than 6 months ago, I bought my copy for $12.
does that mean it's worth $12? not necessarily.
on ebay, I see loose carts sell at about the $30 price point. (though admittedly there are a couple that sold for much more)
on amazon, the cheapest one at the time of this posting is $32.95 +shipping.
finally, a smaller local shop had one about a month ago, that sat around for a while, priced at $27.
so how do I interpret this?
I'd say the "real" value would be in the high twenties to low thirties, depending on condition.
so what does this mean?
in essence:
have patience, a deal will come, but more importantly
(http://t.qkme.me/3lcd.jpg)
You did get a good deal on Ys I & II. It's worth $35 or $40. However you are one cheap SOB. And I say that with all due respect. :)
-
Mine was ship good, no complaints,
PM if you're still intrested to trade for those games
Ah, a voice of reason. I'm thinking about the deal, I do need those games to complete my SMS collection. :)
-
The game I did buy was packaged poorly, basically wrapped in thick paper, but arrived safely. So thanks, but boo for ignoring my PM.
yeah, same here, kinda irked about that.
You were upset it the way it was packaged but it arrived perfectly? Now you're just nitpicking.
Nitpciking? LMAO Blind luck was on your side...shitty pack jobs deserve people being upset...shows lack of caring/professionalism on your part.
Blind luck? I've bought and sold a lot of games and never had any complaints. I know how to ship things and whether something requires bubble wrap or extra support. Herd mentality and group-think is fascinating.
-
Using just thick flat paper in a mailer is indeed a poor choice. That doesn't provide any kind of support against blows or shock, nor allow any sort of soft cushioning.

Obviously you have more than a couple of complaints here ;) Typical "group/herd mentality" fallback when people call you on your BS, and lame excuses/combacks for them. If you did indeed just paper wrap a game with nothing else that IS shitty packaging plain and simple.
-
Whats ironic is he's accusing others of being frugal, and he's the one skimping out on packing material, using f*cking sheets of paper....
-
You're a real charmer SS. I was lucky my item wasn't damaged, despite only being wrapped in what seemed to be grocery bag paper. You should take the time to package games a bit better. You know how easily cases and hinges get cracked.
-
Bubble wrap cost money. Between his hurting ebay sales and his being frugal, he cant afford to give a damn about the safety of your package.

As some people keep complaining, dragging it out, and making it personal, I just bumped the thread to mark off Ordyne and Ninja Spirit as taken/traded. :-)

Bubble wrap is quite expensive, frugal or not. I use it if it's necessary, as when I sold John Madden Duo CD Football, since that's a double jewel case and a lot more fragile than the basic HuCard games.

Bubble wrap?
Expensive?
dude, you can get a 7$ roll that will last you a long ass time.
Here, let me assist you:
Step 1: Get free small priority flat rate boxes.
Step 2: Wrap jewel case in bubble wrap thats been cut double the width of the case
Step 3: Insert game into box, seal box. There's free adhesive on the free box already. You save money.
Step 4: Mail it. 5.25$ Flat Rate to anywhere in the USA
If it can be shipped cheaper than that, wrap the entire box in newspaper or something and slap a label on it so they don't bitch about flatrate and priority.
Also, quit posting over and over and over to respond to multiple people. You have 69 posts and should probably only have like, 12.

Success and Perfect Feedback: the "Frugal" Best of SegaSaturn51195
Book I: Paradise Lost
I sell on Ebay casually, a few games and other items here and there.
Ebay has become rough for sellers, for video games and other items. It's all we talk about on the Ebay boards.
I've had a huge dropoff in that last 3-6 months
Ebay sales are down down down.
Do you really think I have to make ends meet by selling some games in my collection for $5 or so more than you think it's worth?
I don't mind parting with... 30 games for some extra cash for the holidays.
Bubble wrap is quite expensive
I could use some extra $ to complete that [SMS] set.
I would normally keep all of these TG-16 games
At any price, it's painful to sell any games from my collection.
I have no desire to gut my entire TG-16 collection since that would just kill me.
I started selling my CD games because I no longer had a Turbo CD
I sold all my CD games [and] a bunch of my chip games.
Canto VI: Rise to Fame
it's been great, minus 1 or 2 immature people.
A scant few people on here (frugal and cheap people, like Barte, [professorson, vestcoat, nectarsis, dark kobold, jibajabba, arkhan, rolfmoa, glazball, fiftyquid...]
It's been a total win-win situation despite a few of the most cheap/frugal/turbo police scoffing because 1 or 2 games are priced a little high.
again, a few immature, cheap, frugal people don't bother me.
Don't act stupid and just agree with your clique just to agree.
Herd mentality and group-think is fascinating.
I'm not even going to respond anymore, it's a waste of time and way too negative.
Part 3: Death of a Salesman
I don't want or need your business.
Most people overpay collecting rare video games. That's just the way it is. You really can't expect to pay exactly what it's worth. That's delusional.
That philosophy has lead me to success and perfect feedback.
Everyone I've done business with has been completely satisfied and you have no idea what my communication is like.
The game I did buy was packaged poorly, basically wrapped in thick paper, but arrived safely. So thanks, but boo for ignoring my PM.
yeah, same here, kinda irked about that.

You're a real charmer SS. I was lucky my item wasn't damaged, despite only being wrapped in what seemed to be grocery bag paper.
Whatcha gonna do about it, keep complaining?
I'm no dealer, that's for sure.
these games aren't really for sale.
-
Okay here are some things that bother me about this thread. 1st, some but not all of his prices are a little on the high side, 2nd people keep complaining about it.
I am not standing up for his prices nor do I know the man personally. I myself sent him a PM asking about some games and decided it was a little high for me at this point in time. However, I didn't wright him back telling him how he was a hack trying to rip people off. I simply just decided to not buy the games.
Here is my point.... If his prices are too high then don't buy the games!!! Simple as that. No need to make a huge drawn out thread about how some games cost too much, mention a better deal you got on a game elsewhere, or to point out how much less you may have sold one of the games he has for sale at one point. If you don't like the prices then don't buy. Simple as that.
-
Come on, guys. Be nice. No one should have to choose between bubble wrap and food for their kids.
SS, why don't you go ahead and post your PP addy here in the thread. I'm sure a few of us can help out so that you guys can still have a Christmas.
Chris
Edit: Keith, it would be that simple if he weren't such a dick about it. That's what's keeping it going at this point. That and the fact that he's evidently sending people games wrapped in garbage bags.

Well with those sales you SHOULD now be able to afford the OH SO pricey bubble wrap....WHEW that was close!!

I was kidding about bubble wrap being expensive. You guys can't be that obtuse. But I don't use it if I don't have to. All games arrived safely, even to cheapskate bartre. :)
There's also no need to ship in a flat rate priority box if the weight is under 13 oz. I'm not going to give "free shipping" and then add weight and increase the cost. I'll ship 1st Class if possible. If someone requests a different way to shape, I'll accommodate them gladly. Bubble wrap might add too much weight to it. Simple as that. But if it's necessary to avoid damage, I'll use it. It's a judgment call. All games I ship arrive safely.
I'm actually enjoying schooling the PC Engine police. You guys make it so easy. My games have sold for fair prices for the most part and I'm quite happy with the sales and the recent trade I set up, so all your posts, complaining, etc have done nothing. I've sold about 20 of my CD/chip games. Sorry you can't get Cadash from me for $25 with free priority mail shipping. Get it from someone else. :-)
This will be my last post about anything other than sales/trades updates on this thread. You might not respect the forum, but I do. Thank you.

Schooling who? You sold some games WOOOOOOOOOOOO.....and respect the forum while doling out insults to decent members...yep that's respect ;)

I agree with you. His prices aren't awful. (Rarity guide is silly, but whatever)
The reason for this thread explosion is two fold:
#1, He contradicted himself a lot, and also made some spurious claims about ebay. This sort of opens the flood gates.
#2, Nothing new happens often on these forums, so people are desperate for something to latch on to, to talk about.

We're not stupid enough to believe you were joking. We all know you were quite serious, and just now realized how dumb and cheapskatish it made you look.

No one should have to request it. It doesn't matter if its a double jewel case or a single. Its all fragile. Ship responsibly.

No one is being schooled here. The way you see it doesn't fit with reality. The only thing you have done is join a forum to dump your shit, acting like a dick about it as you go. While being caught up in the moment, you ended up putting on the dunce cap, and now the majority is laughing, jeering, and poking fun at you. The fact is, all this has happened before, and all this will happen again. You're like probably the hundredth noob to join the forum and do this exact same skit. Different name, same game plan.
And also, I have Cadash. Why do you keep going on about Cadash. The majority of people here own it. I also don't give a damn about your prices. What I do think is f*cked up is your own admittance to poor communication, backing out on deals, ignoring pm's, stating prices and sending payment info, then selling items behind peoples back, poor shipping methods, constant contradicting statements, quad posting, and your noobish dick faced attitude. You seem to be of the opinion you have a right to be here, and a right to act like how you want to towards people. I'm sorry, but you have not been here long enough to warrant all the self-importance and cock worship you seem to think you are entitled to here, as a seller or wtf ever you think you are here. YOU are f*cking nobody, noob brat.
This will be my last post about anything other than sales/trades updates on this thread. You might not respect the forum, but I do. Thank you.
This I doubt.
Man...If Nanto would have f*cking implemented a 150 post grace period for new members before they could post sales/trade threads, the majority of these f*cking brats wouldn't have to be suffered so much. Seriously, the few good games a couple of members may get from these kind of sales just isn't worth it as a whole.
-
Bumped for trade (Ordyne and Ninja Spirit) and Parasol Stars is now on HOLD until Friday. Excellent!
-
Bumped for putting Sinistron on HOLD.
-
Multiple posts (as has been pointed out numerous times there is an edit button) is stupid.....multiple bumps to a sales thread so close together is against the rules, so much for respecting the forum eh?
-
I'll post all updates by editing the first message.

I have a theory that Sega = Canada/Swiss.
1) Exact same avatar picture.
2) Both have similar sigs
3) Both have had complaints with packaging (unapologetically)
4) Both have had issues w/ pricing Cadash
5) Canada was looking to move a lot of games
6) Mixing it up w/ the same people in particular
7) Name was created shortly after Swiss was banned (Aug) but first post was November

I'm not Swiss and I have no idea who that is so your conspiracy theory is wrong. If the same people are complaining who complained about him/her, maybe the problem is with those people. That wouldn't surprise me because those 3-4 members are some of the most immature, frugal, cheap people ever. And I enjoy schooling them. Please don't bump the thread any more for anything other than interest in games. It's important to follow the forum rules and respect members. Thank you.
-
The above wouldn't surprise me. I guess if someone here who has dealt with him wants to confirm the guys origin country or home state that would be the nail in the coffin. Also, before I forget......

We'll do we for sure know that Canada was from Canada.
A few other things not listed are strikingly similar as well.
I mean what are the chances of two people who act pratically the exact same way, both of which want Bruce Willis as their avatar, and both of which choose the exact same picture on a pcengine site.
Like I could see two people on this site accidental using the same Bonk/Zonk/Guy Kazama picture, but two people both picking BW and using the exact same photo all while having the same personality, seems unlikely.
And we do know of many instances of people who get banned having 2-3-4 more incarnations for some strange reason.

There aren't many actors to choose from in the avatar list. Bruce Willis is by far the best choice.

Canada/Swiss liked to refer to ebay a lot also, and sold on there often up until as of late, and also referred to rarity guide. And one of his most famous quotes:
[Im in Sales... Buy low sell high. Dont hate , If theres people who want to buy things for higher price then thats there problem not yours. LOVE the COMMENTS =)
Like I said prior:
Different name, same game plan.
Really wouldn't be surprised if they were all the same clown. Happens all the time around here. At any rate, I think Canada/Swiss was from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
-
Here is my point.... If his prices are too high then don't buy the games!!!
I couldn't care less about his prices.
Sorry you can't get Cadash from me for $25 with free priority mail shipping. Get it from someone else. :-)
You keep saying this, but most of us own all of this shit. No one's drooling over your cheap, common games other than the noobs PM'ing you.
I have a theory that Sega = Canada/Swiss.
Swiss writes completely differently. They act similar only because they're trolls. The avatars are default.

Meh, I think i'm over this thread.
on the upside, I did finally get a decent Ys I & II manual (yeah, that's why I bought it, my old copy had a super poopy one.)
-
lol wait how did I get thrown into the cheap/immatur...
oh wait, f*ck it.
I am cheap. 50$ for Cadash is retarded.
-
Nah, its not Swiss. I bought from Saturn, and its not our lovely Miss Swiss. Also, Saturn spells correctly and writes in proper English, not all retarded like Swiss did.
-
I just ordered Turrican from Mr SegaSaturn here. I couldn't pass it up since it was cheaper than any other copy I've seen posted here or on ebay before. I'll let everyone know what kind of condition it's in when I receive it.

Congrats on buying the crappiest game for the Turbob! lol
-
yeah, I've always heard that it was a lowsy game. I just really wanted it for my collection.
I still can't see the game being any worse than falcon or gunboat but I'll know soon enough.

Id honestly play gunboat or falcon before Turrican. At least with those games, I can pretend I am in an airplane or a gunboat and make sound effects and roll around.
All I can do in Turrican is wonder why people think its a good game.

nodtveidt's Old_Rover's posts about Turrican TG-16 over the years has, literally, been the only reason I haven't thrown the HuCard in the litterbox to see what the cats will do with it.
I AM NOT JOKING about that. I like the coverart, though. Corny, but in an amusing "pulp sci-fi" manner. I STILL REMEMBER THE POWER RING.

I received the few games I ordered. They came just as described. Thanks

Turrican was a moderate hit and well reviewed for Genesis. It came in one of those cardboard Accolade cases (like Hardball). I don't remember much about it though and I don't think I ever played the Turbo version despite owning it for awhile.

It was all the rage for all the C64 and Amiga idiots.
Idiots being the keyword here.

The games I purchased arrived quickly and were package well. They also looked almost brand new.
-
Got my game in today. I still don't understand how this thread blew up, I got it for $10 less then every ebay listing and everything arrived in good shape and the seller was easy to deal with.
-
It blew up, because he was a condescending ass. I offer him $30 for Cadash and he pretty much laughed at me. I would have gone up to $40, but there was no haggling. Gems like this put people off;
And rarity guide is the BEST source for pricing. Everybody knows that.
It's listed as $20 on Rarity. The most accurate pricing guide on the planet according to SegaSaturn51195. With the box it goes up to $60. SegaSaturn himself said the box only added $5-$10 to the price. Putting the game at $30. Unless I'm doing the math wrong.
If I wanted to pay an inflated $50 for it I'd buy it off eBay.

Fifty does have a point, but by now everyone seems to be aware the guys a walking contradiction, so now its more like beating a dead horse. Guys faults have all been listed, anyone thinking of doing business with him should just glance over all the post prior first so they know what they may be getting in to.

Well said

I was mainly referring to the "get bent" comment. :)

I got my 3 TG-16 CD games in last Wednesday all in good order at a fair price. (I've already played through and beaten Ys III, and really enjoyed it!)

Yes, you should know what you're getting into... fair prices and games that are in like new condition, and someone who puts the Turbo police in their place. :)
My sales on here have been a complete success. Thanks everyone!

Fifty... really man? :(
Yes really. I'm glad some forum members are managing to get good deals, but I'll pass. I'm not asking for apologies, nor am I expecting one or ever handing one out.
I wouldn't sell to you if you offered me $300 for Cadash. :-)

Edit.. Nah I don't really care

You put no one in their place. You're just a little cunt noob brat with no conviction and plenty of paper to pack with, who yet again came along to lie, double talk, double deal, and leech off of another forum's cash flow during the holidays. Last I heard, no one was laughing with you, they were ALL laughing at you. There is a difference. You have no friends here. People are just using you to get your stuff in much the same way you planned to leech cash off of them. People like you come around all the time to unload their "much loved and highly valued" collections they got last month. The problem for you is, where people like you come in hoping to exploit, people around here have already had their fill of your type, and learned how to manipulate your wanton greed and lust to make money back on your little rarity guide "investments".
And when its all said and done and people get what they want from you here, and you serve no further purpose, the forum will be done with you and toss you aside. No friends, no one replying to your random post in chit chat, nuthin. Eventually you will end up some topic for luls in the fighting street section, where someone eventually behind the scenes will end up passing your mailing address around, and people will sign you and your family up for gay porn mags and the such for moar lulz. Eventually, dissatisfied with how things played out, and realizing how much suck it actually is to have all those Master system games you have no desire to play, like Rocky and Rambo, you will rinse and repeat this same process over on a Sega forum, where again, moar people will chew you up and spit you out.
And on a final note, you got lucky the poorly packages stuff did not get damaged, and regardless of your ability to somehow manage to complete a few sales successfully, your over all attitude and lack of convictions concerning business is what makes you someone people should be weary of dealing with. You are not a good seller, just a leech. That was made crystal clear.

I call bullsh!t.
the copy of ys i bought was far from that.
the only reason i didn't bitch about it was because all i wanted was the manual.

You have an interesting definition of success.
If your margin for success = sold games, cash in pocket, and no ebay fees, then good job.
To me, it looks like you lost one of your "favorite" collections, compromised your prices several times, reneged on your convictions, and burnt bridges with two or three customers and a half dozen old timers. A+!

There's nothing worse than a cheapskate who still complains lol. You remind me of this 65 year old man I know won't spend two dollars because he thinks he's getting ripped off. :-)

Go f*ck yourself. This guy buys something off of you, has the audacity to point out that it wasn't "like new", and now he's a cheapskate. Jesus, you're an a$$hole. Hurry up and finish selling your shit so you can get the f*ck out of here and go bother the people on the Sega forums.

Whatever your parents tell you to help you get to sleep at nite must be one hell of a magical bedtime story.

nononono...
I'm gonna go ahead and ask you to shut the hell up for a minute.
it's one thing if a game isn't quite mint, or has a couple scratches.
It's entirely another when I feel compulsed to test the game extensively, even going so far as to rip the game to my PC, just to make sure that none of the (sometimes worrisome) scratches are going to cause problems down the road.
