First, welcome

Second, there have been some recent threads that address the DUO / -R / -RX issue.

Third,

Yeah I just saw those threads.  I found pre region modded duos for $169 US and Duo-r's for $229.  Is that a fair price?

I'm looking to buy a duo and wanted to know what model is better the duo, duo-r, or duo-rx and how much should I pay for one that is pre region modded?

I Bought a Core Grafx 2 on ebay but it did not have the cover for the expansion port.  Does anyone have an extra there willing to part with.

All CDROMs are region free, so you dont have to worry about US vs JP region.  Having the proper system card is required.  If you use the CGFXII in an orignal interface unit with a basic CDROM2 unit, you'll have to use whatever system card your game requires.  If you find a Super CDROM attachment (the one that actually matches your CGFXII) I believe those have the 3.0 system built in and so would play anything but Arcade games.

Thats what I thought but I wanted to be sure.  One other question I have is other than ebay are there any places recommended that i may find the cd-rom attachment.  I'm having the feeling i should have bought both together because it seems most people on ebay are selling the two togethter.  I happend to get the core grafx for 80 dollars shipped from a US seller as opposed to buying it from japan and paying alot for shipping.

I just recently purchased a pc-engine Core Grafx II and have some questions about the cd-rom attachment.  Are all games compatible with all the cd-roms models provided i have the correct system card.  Are there any cd-rom models I should avoid or a particular version which is better or more reliable than the others.
