Box - Very good
Case - Good, but label starting to wrinkle a bit

Hucard - Good
Sleeve - Good

And the Winner IS!!!

I have a copy of Legendary Axe, but it is not complete either. I'd like to put my name in there too.  :)

sign me up too please, If I win I'll send a lossey Legendary Axe to the second name drawn as well!!

Again!!  I just want to say BlueBMW you are extremely cool for doing this!  Once I start getting some doubles, I will do the same!!

With all the eBay gouging and general attempts to rip off people overcharging for Turbo goodies, I think this is a Brilliant idea to bring the community together!!

Well since your other posts ARENT plugs trying to sell us stuff at stupid prices.  ie...

"Z@MG L@@K I got teh turbo stuff for sale!  I want $500000000 cuz its super R@RE!!!  I'm offerin it here first cuz you are teh turbo fans!! It goes to eBAYZ next!!"

I suppose I'll let ya in :P  Any luck with that Duo R sound issue?  I know on standard duos its typically a capacitor issue.  Maybe the Duo-Rs aren't so perfectly reliable and everyone believes.  Could also be a slight laser adjustment issue also.

[thread derail]
not yet, but i haven't had a chance to work on it.
i'm thinking that the issue is something just got out of calibration, i.e. the laser's angle is off.
I know that was a common issue with early ps2s, and i've fixed quite a few of those, just hoping i won't have to replace the laser.
[/thread derail]

so how about that legendary axe?

If the parts arrive, I'll be region modding my regular Duo today.  The procedure is the same for a Duo-R only on a JP system you have to ground a certain pin on one of the mainboard chips.

I've been itching to start on a new turbo game after beating Bloody Wolf a couple days ago. That last boss was toughie. This game should fit in nicely. Besides, I could use some flare. :)

Isn't that boss something else? You're playing the game, just movin' along and then you hit the final boss.
