Raffle: Turbo Duo system... Winner chosen!

Sparky · 09/05/2015, 10:29 PM

Ya so been thinking about raffling this thing off, but it is not complete...

I got a repro card door replacement for it, from the "man "on here... and it comes with the power supply and a controller, sorry needs the av hook ups, I could not find a spare, having sound issues off and on, but people fix it here

It works great with the card slot...but like I said it is off and on with the sound when you play a cd game.

You need a 300 post count to enter.

Good luck folks... I will draw at the end of September as regulars do not show up every day so giving them some time.

Hugs

Please consider me in your raffling activities.

BigusSchmuck · 09/05/2015, 11:40 PM

Awesome raffle bud! I already have a duo of duos (one Duo-R and my original U.S Duo) so best of luck to the winner!

johnnykonami · 09/05/2015, 11:48 PM

Woah! Generous! Don't count me in as I have my original Duo that I am saving up to send to Keith Courage so he can pimp it out. But I hope this one goes to a good home!

wilykat · 09/06/2015, 01:13 AM

Count me in as well. If I win this and get it working 100% my brother will love it as gift. He loved Dragon's Curse a lot back then and I'm sure he'd appreciate TED to play 100's other games

Dicer · 09/06/2015, 01:28 AM

What a fantastic raffle, Tossing my hat in the ring been wanting a secondary system for the downstairs...

Good luck and Turbokarma to OP and everyone else.

PunkCryborg · 09/06/2015, 01:39 AM

OMG that's beautiful

HailingTheThings · 09/06/2015, 02:22 AM

+1,000 Turbo Doodles Kudos Karma, Mister Sparky, If I didn't already have a Duo-R I'd totes be like "Hey." So don't enter me, but keep being cute, it looks good on you.

Damn straight. Major kudos to you, Sparky. Don't add me as I already have a Duo, but seriously, just wow.

wildfruit · 09/06/2015, 05:41 AM

Wow sparky . Please sign me up my son would love his own setup.

Gentlegamer · 09/06/2015, 05:43 AM

Whoever wins should have Sparky just ship it to Keith Courage for refurb.

bozo55 · 09/06/2015, 11:03 AM

This must be the most generous community on the entire internet. I'm blown away by this.

I gotta agree with you, it's really the best community, the people are nice and helpful(unlike some places!)

PCEngineHell · 09/06/2015, 11:36 AM

Hmm, count me in.

If I win it and can get it working well again I could use it. Has it been recapped yet? If not maybe it just needs that and a laser calibration. My son is wanting a TG deck, so I could give it to him to play if I won.

Sparky · 09/06/2015, 01:46 PM

I will ad you folks later

and this has been done before by BlueBMW who offered a perfect duo unit with all the bells and whistles

just want it to go to a good home and get played, poor thing.

csgx1 · 09/06/2015, 03:12 PM

Wow, another generous raffle Sparky! Don't add me as I already have two CD systems even though its been a life long dream to own a US Turbo Duo.

Let's not forget Sparky also generously raffled off Bonk 3 a few years back. Didn't think that raffle would be topped.

CGQuarterly · 09/06/2015, 03:26 PM

Wow, that's the first time I've seen one of the replacement card slot covers. It looks great! Please don't enter me in the raffle, but kudos to you for doing this.

780racer · 09/06/2015, 03:46 PM

I just wanted to say to everyone but also Sparky. This community is prob. one of the best I have ever seen on Teh Internetz and want to also give you all my Kudos for making this such a awesome place.

I don't meet the required posts, but also do not need this as I already OBEY my US Duo. Just wanted to say thank you.

Galder · 09/06/2015, 04:01 PM

Awesome raffle! Good luck to everyone. The community is indeed first class :]

MotherGunner · 09/06/2015, 04:20 PM

I'd be dumb if I didn't say count me in Sparks! Killer raffle!

SuperGrafx · 09/06/2015, 05:03 PM

Wow what a generous raffle.
I'd be honored if you enter me for this item.

turboswimbz · 09/06/2015, 05:17 PM

If you can't find a controller, I'll thow it in if the winner doesn't have one / wants to give it to a family member ect. (You've been generous enough no need to go seeking out a controller on top of it)

P.S. You're my hero sparkster.

Psycho Punch · 09/06/2015, 05:31 PM

Why couldn't you reveal this raffle before I bought my Duo? Fuck you sparky.

Fuck you.

PS: Was it you the person who raffled another DUO here a while ago?

BlueBMW raflled one, and I do believe one other one was raffled as well before this, but I can't remember anymore, I've read so many threads going back to the begining here they all run together.

ToyMachine78 · 09/06/2015, 06:11 PM

Enter me please. Hugs! Outstanding raffle.

T2KFreeker · 09/06/2015, 06:44 PM

Sparky, please don't enter me, just wanted to say that it's stuff like this that keeps the Turbob community so friggin' cool. You Tha' Mang for doing this raffle. Nice to see peeps giving to the community instead of flipping them the bird by overpricing on Evilbay. Awesome Sparky...just awesome.

GohanX · 09/06/2015, 09:21 PM

Please enter me, I'd love to have a duo again.

BlueBMW · 09/06/2015, 09:25 PM

Whats kind of funny... these days I just have a Duo R and part of me wants a US duo again lol. I actually gave away two duos hehe. One on here and another to a friend.

Ahh hell, toss me in the hat Sparky if you dont mind. The US Duo has some bit of nostalgia that I didn't quite realize until not having one for a while. I have a controller and power supply etc so I wouldn't need any of that jazz.

seieienbu · 09/07/2015, 04:58 AM

Clearly the best raffle I've ever seen on here. I'd like to be included in this raffle; if I win I'll give it to my girlfriend as she's enjoyed playing some Turbo games as of late and I'd rather she had her own setup than just kept borrowing mine.

Thanks a lot, Sparky!

grolt · 09/07/2015, 10:31 AM

Blown away by the generosity of this forum...Sparky you're one of the good ones. Maybe I'll have enough posts to enter by the time the end of the month rolls around, but regardless, sexy piece of hardware and kudos again for the raffle. Someone is going to be very happy when all is said and done!

cr8zykuban0 · 09/07/2015, 12:47 PM

holy shit, that's an awesome raffle from you to give away such an awesome system.

i'd like to enter please!

elmer · 09/07/2015, 01:20 PM

What an awesomely generous raffle! Major kudos!

I've already got one, so don't want to enter, just wanted to say "thanks".

elderbroom · 09/07/2015, 03:57 PM

Can you please add me to the raffle.

Amazing, I've been wanting to pickup one of these in Canada. I would have bought this had it been for sale, knowing you are local. Major kudos on the raffle.

Sparky · 09/07/2015, 08:30 PM

Umm I would have not sold it, got this pretty cheap, a few years back, Like $60 and the new door was $25.

I have a job, so when it comes to my hobbies/ pleasures it is never about the money.
I do not get the gougers, find a real job and quit fucking over this system.

Ps: some of you that have inquired about this system that already have a duo but have a story to explain your reasons for another, that is fine but if you ever decide to get rid of it I expect a raffle or people pay what it cost you to fix it and no more.

Just remember it was free.. It's going to cost me over $20 to ship this to the USA and I am including that free as well. Pay it forward my friends that is all I ask, do not disappoint this community. That is my little rant sorry (( blush))

Anyone can raffle these types of things off but my god so many people see just the money and will never.
Thanks for the kind words.

Gentlegamer · 09/07/2015, 09:29 PM

As cool as it would be to have an authentic Turbo Duo to pair with my TurboGrafx-16, I have a nice Duo-R that I'm very happy with.

cobrad12 · 09/08/2015, 11:19 AM

Very nice to see this raffle!! Obviously don't enter me, I have a duo and my post count is low. Just wanted to say good luck to all the people entering, and that this makes me want to be more active on these forums and do some raffles myself.

glazball · 09/08/2015, 02:33 PM

Sparky, you are amazing and I'd like to enter as well. I don't know my post count though.

+10 Kudos and +100 TurboKarma to you good sir!

FiftyQuid · 09/08/2015, 03:30 PM

Very cool Sparky. I still have that Bonk III you raffled off. I thought that was a massive raffle, but this one is bigger.

Don't enter me, I just wanted to say thanks for everything you do around here.
