I'm looking for the spine card for my copy.  I remember missing out on a CIB copy with spine card a few years ago on eBay for $75.  Boy how times have changed.

I was paying up to $200 or more for import 16 and 32-bit games during the 90's. I oaid $150 for Drac X, but I don't temember if that was in Canadian dollars or if it included shipping.
I dont know where you got dracula x from in the 90's, i bought mine from Japanvideogames and it's about $90 plus shipping back in the days. Maybe some import shops charged more.

I bought most of my games from them.
Justin the Not-So-Cheery Black/Hack/CrackTiger helped Joshua Jackass, Andrew/Arkhan Dildovich and the DildoPhiles destroy 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged/destructive/doxxing toxic turbo troll gang which he covers up for under the "community" euphemism!

I remember paying around $100 for Dracula X at an import shop here in Dallas in 1993 when it was new.  So $200 honestly is not an insane price in today's money.

Hows this one... A reproduction copy of drac x for a whooping 125.... Any takers??? I cant believe this fuck

ginoscope

Yeah that is not cool at all and looks like one of the disc Bernie and company was giving out to the community.

Jason_dicarlo85

Yeah for real fuck that guy

That's weird I thought I had posted a pic of a copy for sale locally.


Well in any case a local franchise retro game store has a copy of this game and they are asking $299.99.


Yeah.


I honestly do not think it will sell lol.

But keep in mind they almost never get anything turbo related. And when they do it's usually a lose hu card that they want full eBay price as though it was CIB with an extra 10% on top.


But they did have a loose TG-16 system going for $75 that almost looked tempting. But I didn't see a need for me to buy a second system.

This thread's still a thing? Give it a couple years and you'll have Toby-boots sellin' for 2hundo a pop! That happened with the Ginga Fookayz after all.  :lol:
