Title: TurboGrafx Coffee Mugs
Post by: infUsiOn on August 08, 2010, 08:32:11 AM: So back in the day I got one of these free when I was working at Babbages... which I think turned into gamestop or something, I dunno. It says TurboGrafx 16 on one side and Bloody Wolf on the other. I know there were ones for Devil's Crush and Legendary Axe I? Maybe II?

Anyone I was wondering as to the value of this mug? Also was there ever a PC Engine one? No doubt, the mugs are rare, but I guess the question is, does anyone care? (<---look I rhymed!)

There's no telling what it is worth... some would say $5, some might say higher than $50 - guess it just depends on the day. It's pretty cool you have one, I love the old gear - post a pic.

Shit, I would say someone would easily pay $29.99 for it..... of course it really doesn't matter what you sell it for, because someone else is probably just gonna turn around and sell it for a 200% mark up....

This is what I have. Mind the glare and dust. The mug itself is glossy black, and the decals are sharp;

I wouldn't pay any more than $11.99 for such a mug; I'd much rather have one of these sexy mugs (http://www.cafepress.com/pcenginefx.863348) than pay stupid money for one that's decades old.

Henry now owns my "decades old" mug and I think when he opens the box he is going to be impressed as mine lived in a box, safe and mint until... Henry drinks some coffee out of it I suppose? hehe!
