Interesting pseudo alternative to a Turbo Express.

That's a pretty good price for that given what they usually sell for.

My first thought was that they have to be stock photos, but he says what you see is what you get. Amazing condition. Some decent games with it too.

He's been trying to sell this for months. I got a few pics from him a while back and the quality looks great except for the port cover at the back that doesnt match the system colour.

Where was the pic taken Safetoyboy?

Mint condition, just without the stand, which in integral to the system and so, is therefore, NOT mint condition.

Whether it's muppets calling Actua Soccer on the Saturn "R@RE!!!" or folk calling an item "Mint" despite it being plainly not the case, it's infuriating.


Oh, turns out he won't allow me to comment on his ads.... make of that what you will

Ohh don't worry I'll gladly do that for you. ;-)

AAAAaaand a mod has just removed all my comments from the Virtual Boy ad.

Lovely... some of these people really need to look up the definitions of 'mint' and 'rare'.

On a separate note, any offers on my mint condition PS3.

Omg its in such good condition!

It's definately worth the asking price of €400!

As annoying as all the off topic waffling is on this forum, the moaning about adverts.ie is even worse. Either report the ads to the mods if they're against the rules, or STFU. It's especially worse if you're going in there on purpose to spoil peoples ads.

Hi I'm new around these parts.

Adverts is a joke i got banned from posting on a guys ads for asking why his "boxed and complete, collectors condition atari 7800" had a tatty box and was missing a pad.

I also got a flak from people on this very thread concerning an untested free snes i put up almost making me out to be a thief. "not test = broke" I mean the thing is free, i had no cables to test it what more do they need. So i guess the entire gaming culture in Ireland is riddled with Del boy's leading to a lot of mistrust.

Lads I'm looking for a 3d0 guru to tell me a fair price for a 3d0 and what the best model is.

Was that the 'new' 7800? We know it well



I don't recall that, I'm sure it was nothing against you personally at all anyway. It's just a well known ebay & auction thing in general with electronics. The majority of the time, if an item is listed as untested, generally the seller is covering their ass regards a return. They can basically decline to refund you as the ad was listed as untested.

There are genuine cases, but the Del Boys vastly outnumber them when it comes to 'untested'

Ah i'm not worried about it. Yes the amazingly "new" 7800. I bought some items from that chap before and he regretted to inform me of his smoking habit which stank up the boxes and manuals of all the gear :mad:. Just an all round bad vibe from him then.
