Seller is a complete shitbag too. Begged a guy to come down from $4500 to $3200 on a copy of Magical Chase, only to list and sell it on eBay for $5,000. I know the guy that sold it to him, so this story is 100% fact.

Wait, I heard that story about Cerulean games at MGC. Begged for Magical Chase, then traded it for a box of rares

This is a different story, I think. Cause this guy just used the pictures the other guy sent him and put it on eBay very shortly after he got it.

Well if he is on here and can read this... TEST YOUR GAME. DOWNLOAD OOTAKE IF THAT'S WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO. Or even just using a disc scanning program.

If that's the same Toy Machine as Zero Gamer here, hopefully he isn't leveraging deals here and in other communities just to flip on eBay for profit.

Funny, I also saw someone on FB looking for that recently. I was thinking "you know, up until a couple of weeks ago you could buy it for $20..."

You mean we shouldn't be doing that? Whoops, guess I shouldn't have entered all of those raffles...

reason to "believe" it's not the same.  It is an odd name for multiple people, but the TM here isn't from PA iirc.
Also, that elway2k is notorious for being a scum bag for a couple years on ebay.

I actually thought this when I first joined, but I found out it wasn't the same guy. sirhcman edited his post, which makes my reply look a little confusing tbh.

Glad to hear some info going in the other direction, as Gypsy's post and sirhcman's follow up gave the impression that there was some kind of history that others already knew about.

I wouldn't expect TM/ZG to be mixed up in the high end Turbo racket even if he turned out to have a different personality elsewhere.

[Gypsy]

Yeah sorry for the confusion. It's definitely not the same guy. I asked one of them directly if the other account was them, the answer was a clear no.

Yeah I didn't know 100% one way or the other so I edited the post. I didn't want to spread bad info about toymachine/zero_gamer if it wasn't in fact him. Glad to hear it is not!

But it's a rare manual, because it was printed upside-down.

People were actually paying that much occasionally for CIC copies back then.

The skies the limit for what appears to be a NEW!/sealed copy.

LOL!  lets ask more than a working console is worth for this piece of garbage

[NecroPhile]

Aww, it's not garbage. 

Abused and stupidly overpriced, sure, but it's still a Turbob.  I'm sure chops/steve/etc. could get it bring it back to life, ready to provide hours of obey to a lucky home.

Yeah, it is sad. Hoping the seller doesn't give up on it and just chuck it into the trash. Hoping someone can grab it and bring it back to life.


Also, this part of the description is killing me...

The guy who sold you a copy of Dynastic Hero for $1,400 presents: some garbage bootleg for $150

Is that an original?  I've never seen one that looks like that, but I bought one of the first batch. The case is printed...

[NecroPhile]

I don't know what all colors Ark made 'em in, but it looks like the same 3D printed case and huey design as mine (except mine's a glow in the dark bluey color.... and has pogs!).

[xcrement5x]

Yeah, I think Arkhan said they ran out of a certain filament color so they went back to basic colors for later runs.  Mine is that blue color, but the case and card look similar. 

[Psycho Punch]

Mine is printed blü (without super glow in the dark materials). I'd actually prefer the white ones to be honest.

I kinda want to play my copy right now.

[NecroPhile]

Beat the shark!

[BigusSchmuck]

Not Turbo related, but funny. I imagine he'll get a lot of $3.00 offers.
