Title: Good deals?
Post by: tokyoracer on October 12, 2007, 04:03:04 PM
Hi there,
I put ads in the locals recently and got a call from a guy who has a CD32 with box, 8 - 10 games and all the cables for £30. All discribed as excellent to mint condition.
Is this a good deal? :-?

Argue him up to 50 quid, that would be about right.

Are you selling or buying? If you're buying then that sounds like a fair deal.

Naw what a rip off I wouldnt go any lower than 100.  You better offer him more for it and the games, I'd hate to see you pay that kind of money for it. :lol:

Buy it for £30 and then I'll buy it off you for £50.

Moto got the right idea. "I PUT IN A WANTED AD" not for sale ad.

I will give you a PM as soon as I get it. ;-)

Not yet, just have to pick it up sometime over the weekend or sometime next week. The games as far as I remember are good classics (apart from rise of the Robots *yuk*). :lol:

That seems a good deal compared to what I recently paid £50 on Ebay for a CD32 and 7games and game pad.Just hope the seller is not reading this!!!!

Oh I'd say it's a classic, after all they certainly don't make 'em like _that_ anymore :-D

OK putting ads in the locals really WORKS!!!

Got calls for a CDTV + 500 and another guy who has 4 or 5 500's, faulty 1200, 1200 tower and loads of other stuff. Plus shouldn't cost a fortune like on eBay either.

Get calling to them free ads!

Hmm this topic seems to have turned slightly dead.

Well good news is that I have got the CDTV and its immaculate! Has the intro CD and 4 games:
Defender of the Crown, Trivial Pursuit, Sim City and a Cook Book CD. Wait 3 games actually... :lol:

Probably will get rid of defender of the crown and that cooking one. Just need to find guideline prices for them.

Should be picking the CD32 up Friday morning so good stuff to look forward to.
