Bonk 3 CD price?

RoyVegas · 05/08/2009, 05:30 PM

I happen to check the sold Turbo stuff just noticed this on Ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Bonk-3-Bonks-Big-Adventure-Turbo-Grafx-16-turbografx_W0QQitemZ200340020408QQcmdZViewItemQQptZVideo_Games?hash=item2ea5321cb8&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A2%7C65%3A13%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50

$75 for just the cd? Its the first time I ever seen the CD version of the game and have no clue what they go for? Is this a fair price for just the cd? What does the complete version go for?

I'd expect a complete one to sell in the $125 range, so that's not too bad a deal, especially since it included the back half of the case and was only missing the manual.

I suspect that you got yours from the same place that I got mine since they had 2 copies for sale and now they have none.

Do you mean you got it from the store itself or from someone on the forums? I gave them a call and they dont have a whole lot in stock..

Sparky, is there a section to post for wanted stuff or do you just post in the regular sections? I NEVER see anything for sale in the regular forums.

jperryss · 05/09/2009, 09:14 PM

Wanted threads go in the buying/selling forum, which doesn't appear for you until you've been a member for a certain period of time.

Sparky · 05/09/2009, 09:15 PM

Hmm... when i ask for stuff over there i never get a response Roy, i luck out there sometimes and I try to check there more often.
but over all i have better luck here

I got mine from eStarland. Absolutely mint condition. $130 if I recall correctly. I posted a photo of it a while back in the "What did you buy today?" thread.

Thanks! I overlooked this post.

gekioh · 05/22/2009, 05:41 PM

I remember paying $150 for mine, bought it from Guts, whom some may remember. Worth every penny.

blueraven · 05/22/2009, 08:28 PM

There was a Bonk 3 on eBid for $125 back in November or so.

Maybe a bit earlier. I think shipped to the USA it was $140.

geise · 05/22/2009, 08:32 PM

Yeah I remember Guts. I sold him my Might and Magic III US game in mint condition. I wonder why he left. Anyways I've seen Bonk 3 CD go for 125-150 now a days. Once in a blue moon you can find someone selling it somewhere that has no idea that it's worth anything. The past couple years though it's been a lot harder. It sure as shit wasn't this hard a little after the Duo went off the market and TTI went out of business. Thank the net and ebay for popularizing the Turbo and jacking up prices higher than they really need to be. If some people didn't make a lot of these turbo games cost so much you actually would see more on ebay. Regardless I wouldn't pay more than 125-130 for Bonk 3 CD. Same goes for the Hu card. I would rather just import it if I didn't have it yet. Not sure what the pc-engine versions go for though.

I paid about $30 for the PCE huey (complete) through RisingStuff. Not sure what the CD version goes for.

RoyVegas · 05/22/2009, 09:27 PM

Ok looking back at the original thread when I said "I've never seen this version", what I meant was that I had never seen the CD version on ebay before so I was curious about pricing since I hadn't seen it on eBay before.

No big deal on price anymore anyway as I traded for a copy.

geise · 05/22/2009, 09:52 PM

Ah, nice! Glad you scored a fairly rare turbo game. Congrats!

There's no such thing as a PCE Bonk 3 CD.
