Craigslist find of the year?

The Turbo is actually brand new with everything inside sealed up tight.  The Express needs caps. Will be adding quite a bit of these to my trade/sale thread hopefully within a few days once I get everything I want sorted out. Yey me!  :dance:
If I ever came across this much Turbob in the wild I'm sure I'd piss myself.  What's that game to the left of Godzilla?

After adding some items to your sales thread, maybe, just maybe you'll consider shipping to Canada?  Pretty please!  I'm still looking for a decently priced TurboExpress.
I'm busy playing pinball, but I still drop by to visit.

That's the CD+G sample disc that was packaged with some Turbo CD add-ons.

Nice find Roy.  I see CD games, but no CD system, what's up with that?

Good eye!  The lady I got it all didn't give me everything she had. She was moving out of state and only wanted to take with her games she still likes to play.  Which meant her keeping the gaming Turbo/CD and 3.0 card as well as a stack of games. She took my phone number in case she decides to sell more (which probably won't be happening as she is leaving the state).

If that Turbo Booster Plus is going to be added to ur sale thread, then I get first dibs :) 

More than likely it'll be on the sale/trade thread, the box I'll probably keep though.

Exactly.
All is well. :)

That's the kind of lot I need to find to really boost my new PCE/Turbo collection! By the way, and it's cool if you don't want to disclose this, but how much did all that cost? Just curious.

Found these displays in the box bin at BJ's.  Thought I might paint them and find something to "display" on them.

Wow, pretty amazing find.  Apparently Vegas is where everything, including Turbo stuff, goes in retirement now.  But damn, both Exiles and Vasteel, I'm guessing she decided to keep CF2 because of its awesomeness.

At first glance, I swear that left box said "Children's Viagra."

You'd be guessing right.  That is one of the ones she kept.

Yes!! And...it's actually FUN lol. Seriously though, I was surprised at how decent of a port it was, and I'm pretty happy with it overall. Just wish the odds of stumbling across someone ELSE with a 'swan AND a copy of the game were a bit higher, so I could get in some link action :D

dd-wrt is awesome. I have had it on my previous two routers.
