So, I've got a bunch of advertisements, magazines, mailers, flyers, a couple posters, Ys map, Sherlock Holmes notes and a Turbografx Installation Guide and Service Manual for the Turbo Arcade machine that I've held on to. I also have some empty cases, instruction manuals, plastic sleeves and a few common Turbo loosies + Salamander and a Son Son II loosie. I was considering throwing up a thread in the sale area to see if anyone is interested in trading for any of it. I don't want to sell any of it, I just want to trade for loosies that I don't have. (I don't want manuals, sleeves, boxes or cases.) I'd like them in gamers condition.

Everything is in the pictures aside from the cases, loosies, sleeves. I will take more/better pics and give more details on each item if this ends up hitting a trade thread.

Running the poll for 14 days and I'll go with the majority decision.

Thanks

If I had some loose spares I'd trade you for the Turboplay mags easily. Those would be nice grabs. Whoever they go to, hope they enjoy them.

I think it's kind of interesting that you would create a poll to see if you should trade your items here.  From what I've seen of you, you don't seem like you care what other people think, which I always thought was your one redeeming quality.

I voted for you to trade the items here.

The third option looks appealing.

Why would you post this on Fighting Street? Shouldn't this be in the trades thread or are you doing this as a joke?

I dunno but I think we have four Arkhans here. :lol:

There are many copies. And they have a plan.

I knew Arkhan was involved in that Chinese cloning project...

We'll tell you when you get older.

Well if he wanted to post it here to keep away lurkers, he could have done so in the chit chat thread. Whatever works I guess.

I miss the days of Roy Vegas asking members for rare items so he could complete stuff for his website then a few months later everything was on ebay for twice as much as generous members sold it to him for. I acyually really did like that site while it was up though.

ASIDE: Roy, if possible, it would be awesome if you could scan some of the stuff that I never see (the Direct Line newsletters from Working Designs, for example) so I can post them at the Archives.

To be honest, I would love high-quality scans of everything in the photographs.

I rarely check fighting street, but I'm glad I did!

Now that you are glad, you also need to be lucky for your next achievement :)

Thank you. :pcgs:

Here are a few tips:

(1) Scan at 300 dpi
(2) I'll take the raw files (.tif) (they will be large files size, but I want to future-proof today's scanning efforts)
(3) Make a separate folder for each magazine/item (to help with organization)
(4) If you want to make .pdf for each magazine/item, that is very kool. When choosing compression level, err on the side of higher quality.

Thanks again. :pcgs:

That's what I was thinking:  "So now you care what the community thinks?!?"

P.S. - I didn't vote because I don't give a shit.

Yep, What he said.....

Will be at leave a few days before I put the trade thread up.

Playing a little tag back and forth with esteban to get everything scanned properly, so he can add it to his archive, before I trade everything away.

It would be nice to see scans of those Club Turbo catalogs. I scanned the Duo one, but I've never seen the interior of the others.

I can scan them also.  Just waiting for confirmation that the scans I already sent esteban suit his needs.

Roy was great and scanned this before Thanksgiving...I've just been too busy to catch up with it.

I promise I'll look at it tonight and get back to you, Roy.

WORD UP.
