Yeah, this is a great price. I paid at least this much, if not more, for the PCE port. The guy even made a case for it. Someone's gettin' a good deal.

Nice find, geddon_jt.  It's unfortunate that it's missing the manual, but it's still a much better deal than most Soldier Blade BINs on ebay.  There's a loosy goosy copy (http://cgi.ebay.com/Soldier-Blade-Turbo-Grafx-16-TURBODUO-TURBO-GRAFX-DUO_W0QQitemZ200314747235QQcmdZViewItemQQptZVideo_Games_Games?hash=item200314747235&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A3|65%3A1|39%3A1|240%3A1318) up right now as well; it'll be interesting to see where it ends up at.  Has the TG-16 price wave crested and headed back down for a while?  :pray:

hucard and sleeve only. comes with a blank hucard case that has the information from the box back taped to the back of the case.

They're both loose.

It's certainly not complete, but it does come with a sleeve and a generic HuCard case (it never had a real case), whereas the one I posted is game only.

OS hooked me up with a good price. I am 1 game away from completing the Soldier collection for the Turbografx (getting import Final Soldier from Risingstuff)! Thanks again OS!

Yeah that's not a bad price I guess. I think I sold mine for around $40 or $50 with the manual last year, and the back of the box had been cut down to fit in the back of a normal CD case (obviously not by me).

I think I paid around $45 for hucard and manual back in 2007. I didn't mind the high price since I had to have it. haha. I do not regret any of my game purchases!

No problem.  I am going to get it again, but for PCE.

That's the one I posted above; you must be up in the land of maple syrup and moose, as shipping was only $4 in the States.

$12.65 to ship a loosey to Canada? What a rip! It only costs half that to ship a game to Canada from the US.

I've shipped stuff to Canada before, it's not much more than shipping in the US.  Usually it's just the seller ripping them off.

When I sell something on one of the forums (don't sell on the bay) I actually get the addy that it is going to and get an actual quote from the post office. But on the bay I have gotten some great deals and the shipping was right.
Title: Re: Good price on US Soldier Blade
Post by: Duo_R on March 08, 2009, 09:31:55 PM
I do the same. Having a scale in the house really speeds up the quote process. Don't worry, this scale is only used for shipping purposes!

Legalize! lol. j/k. I need to get a scale, but they are a bit expensive since I don't sell much. I'm more of a buyer, lol. I don't like to get rid of my games, even the shitty ones!
