EricDeLee Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 How much would you all throw down for a Turbo Grafx Express unit? I've seen a few of them on ebay... here's one in particular: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...ssPageName=WDVW I'm hoping to find one under $50... but I'm not sure what the going market is. It seems a little high right now. Thanks.... Eric DeLee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic George 2K3 Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 Not sure I'd throw anything down for that, since it hardly has any games that I'd want to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian M Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 Depends. Some online stores have NOS or near-new units that sell for about $199. I've seen them go for much less, but keep in mind that the screens are fragile and you'll often find some dead pixels. In fact, NEC used to consider a screen with 3-5 dead pixels suitable for sale, same applies to the NOS units you can buy. Also, sometimes issues would develop with the external speaker. Turbo Express systems are nice, but I wouldn't really buy one unless you already have a decent library of TG turbochip (or PCE HuCards). I'd be wary about buying a heavily used unit. To be safe, consider $100 a safe starting point... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricDeLee Posted June 4, 2004 Author Share Posted June 4, 2004 Maybe I'll just keep with the console unit and just spen my money evenly between the Neo GEO Pocket and the Atari Lynx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 I got one CIB on eBay for $50 (thanks to a tip from McGrail0007 - I owe ya one buddy) but the sound doesn't work unless you use headphones. Small price to pay for such a great handheld! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atarian75 Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 i paid $100 shipped for mine, but it came with 14 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christianscott27 Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 if its trade value around $75 is fair depending on condition. this is one of those items you'll rarely find in the wild, its actually is uncommon unlike say a toploader. its a great portable, of course if you dont like the games that may vary. i really like playing galaga 92 on mine, although it is one bastard of a battery hog. i watched the ebay market for nearly a year to get one and back then they were closer to $80-100. eventually i traded a nomad and some odds n ends for one.
