What's a good price for a Core Grafx by itself?

ApolloBoy · 10/09/2011, 02:53 AM

I've been curious about getting a Core Grafx to supplement my Duo-R so that I have something I can easily bring over to meetups with my friends. However, all the loose Core Grafx consoles I've seen on eBay are around $50 and I wanted to know what a fair price was since I'm not spending that much on a loose console.

thesteve · 10/09/2011, 03:31 AM

ive seen $30-$50

c0ldb33r · 10/09/2011, 08:00 AM

I only see them for ~$30 if they are loose with no AC adapter, controller or video cable.

I got my coregrafx with a small lot of awesome games for $80 - well worth it.

Found my loose Coregrafx 1 for $20 shipped off of another game forum not too long ago. It was listed for this price about a week with apparently no interest.

You should definitely be able to find one for less than $50 if you are patient.

Just picked me up a loosy with pad, ac, and av as well as a manual for $60. Perhaps some might see that as a little much, but I'm pleased with the price. Hoping to get one our techs on the board to region mod it for me.

ApolloBoy · 11/04/2011, 01:28 AM

So does anyone here have one laying around? All I need is just the console itself, nothing else.

Samurai Ghost · 11/04/2011, 09:01 AM

I should buy a bunch of these and ship them back to the states. They are dirt cheap here in Japan.

Senshi · 11/04/2011, 01:45 PM

I'm all in favor of that. While your at it I have a few requests...hehe.

Samurai Ghost · 11/04/2011, 08:48 PM

Yeah, what are you looking for?
I will be sending back a big shipment of games/systems by freight, so shipping costs will be low and I can pass the savings on to you guys. I'm a PCE collector myself so I don't mind buying the stuff/having duplicates. Let me know what you are looking for and I might be able to hook it up at some point! There are some great deals out there. For example, I recently bought a boxed DUO with a boxed Avenue 6 pad for around $40.

MotherGunner · 11/04/2011, 08:52 PM

I am down for this too if you are Ghost.

I would be interested in Coryoon complete, Loose W-Ring, Hori/Avenue Pad, loose Core Grafx II

Samurai Ghost · 11/05/2011, 05:12 AM

Coryoon tends to be pretty pricey but it's one I want to get for myself eventually.
The Hori and Avenue pads are generally pretty cheap. For example this auction for two Avenue 6 pads and a multitap for 1500 yen buy-it-now (less than $20):

I'll try and pick up any loose core-grafx that I can find under $20. You can sometimes get them boxed for a little more than that.

ApolloBoy · 11/05/2011, 03:22 PM

I'd not only be interested in a loose Core Grafx, but I'd also like a multitap and a couple of Avenue Pad 6s. It just pains me to have Bomberman '94 and three controllers but no multitap!

Samurai Ghost · 11/05/2011, 09:18 PM

Multitaps are dirt cheap here. Usually $2-$4. They are light too so I could throw them in with a Core Grafx without increasing the shipping costs much.

Nando · 11/07/2011, 01:35 PM

Interested in a coregrafx 2 and maybe a six button pad on top of that. Depends on the price really. What about games?

Samurai Ghost · 11/08/2011, 01:59 AM

Hopefully I'll be able to sell loose Coregrafx systems in the $20-$30 range depending on if you want the cables/adapters, etc. Games are generally very cheap out there. I have a bunch of duplicates, although mostly loose.

Basically my plan is to buy as much PC Engine stuff as I can while I'm here, ship it all back to the States via surface mail (slow and cheap) then sell if to you guys or on eBay when I get back. I also am doing the same sort of thing for Sega stuff. You'd be amazed at the deals you can get on Yahoo Auctions Japan for retro gaming stuff.

Nando · 01/03/2012, 12:49 PM

Are you still selling the coregrafx system?

Samurai Ghost · 01/03/2012, 11:26 PM

Yeah, I'm taking care of a couple of sales first then I will post a thread soon. I should still have a couple coregrafx systems for sale at that time.

Nando · 01/09/2012, 04:02 PM

Well my budget has changed some, so it probably won't be till summer for me to get my Obey on. Thanks for replying though.

I'll paypal $$$ to you if you need funds. Also, you deserve some profit, so I'm not going to bitch and whine about prices.

WISH LIST:
2 multi-tap in very good condition
Arcade Card DUO (loose is fine)

I prefer CIJC (no, I don't need obi/spine card):
Spriggan
W-Wing
Salamander
Batman
Cho Aniki
Bonk 3
VolvieV (

syphic · 01/27/2012, 06:43 PM

Looking for a Core Grafx as well. I got one as a gift but when It arrived it ended up being one of those PAL RF modified Core Grafx...

Ha! I couldn't remember what thread I put this wish list in!

I'll have to PM it to you, just to help keep things organized.
