Laseractive TG16 modules new in box

[chadtower]

Guys, I have been holding on to some Laseractive modules I picked up at a Building 19. They're all new, in the box, though the boxes have some wear to varying degrees from being somewhere in some warehouse for a long time. They're all tested and all work as new, the modules themselves are as new, just the boxes have wear. I'm going to keep one myself, obviously, but could be talked into trading the other three for the right stuff... any interest?

EDIT: Heh. I just realised that this is my first post... and therefore probably looks like a scam. Fair enough. If anyone is concerned about that, my ebay username is ctower and I have (as of now) a 137 feedback rating. I would be willing to provide other methods someone may request (within reason) to prove this is no scam...

Hi,

Are these the laser/lense motor assemblies for the TG-16 CD unit, internal components, etc, or are these the actual complete CD units?

I would be interested, what sort of items are you looking for in trade and/or $$?

Thanks

They "plug into" the laseractive system. All they do is play the Hu cards. The laseractive system has the laser mechanism to play the Turbo CD games and the mega LD games but the Turbo pac is required.

I'm still lost on this. Picture hunting I go!

EDIT: Found em! Neat! Unfortunately this isn't something I have..

They're the TG16 modules for the Laseractive laserdisc player by Pioneer.

That's the thing... I'm still feeling it out. I know they usually sell for around $300 on ebay, which is more than I paid for each, but not a ton more. I think the main thing I'd be looking for are things that are close to as rare as these are... or at least that would be my main priority.

What types of things are you interested in?

Anything that is rare? Do you collect for every system?

An excellent question. My collection focuses on TG and Atari, though I wouldn't mind getting into other things if it intrigued me enough. My collection is not large. Probably a couple hundred atari games... all of the consoles... most of the TG hardware, ~25 US games and ~20 Japanese games. I have a Saturn and probably ~30 games and a couple ColecoVisions though not many games. That's pretty much it... oh, and an NES with a few games, but who doesn't have one of those? :)

As far as trades go I haev a ton of stuff I would consider including:
new atari 2600/ 7800 games
a couple neo geo home carts
maybe some Saturn and Turbo Grafx games
Got a ton of NES games and a few complete SNES games that are of value.

Let me know if anything is of interest.

[mrhaboobi]

Ooh, just thought of something, I'd be up for a trade for the Laseractive 3D goggles if anyone has them...

How many modules did you manage to get? I might be interested in one.

I have four and am keeping one for obvious reasons. I think I'm going to trade the other three off one at a time, so I can focus on a proper deal for both parties, and am already just about to start negotiations for one as soon as that gentleman returns from a quick bout of being out of town (that gentleman knows who he is).

[Tempest]

Ok then keep me in mind when you finish with him.

BTW I remember reading your story awhile back (I forget where), about how you found all those modules but didn't know if it was worth buying them. I guess it was. :)

Tempest

[chadtower]

Wow! That was around March of LAST YEAR and it wasn't even HERE. That was probably where, on the turbolist? And you remember that?

[Tempest]

Yeah that had to be it. Yes I remember following the conversation because it was so odd (you normally don't go around finding NOS Laseractive modules). I had totally forgotten about it until I read your post here.

Tempest

[samuraiX]

lol, I remember that too from the turbo list. goodtimes

I probably have the old e-mails somewhere... lol

[chadtower]

Heh. I've been on the turbolist using various emails since maybe 1994. the problem is that BT (if BT is among us here, no offense intended) has become so exclusive in his rules that I find it nearly impossible to post. Every email I send gets bounced for one reason or another. It's a shame, too, since I've been on there for so long and it really is a great community. I just lurk now for the most part since I've given up on trying to be active there.

[mrhaboobi]

Yup the good ole turbo list, i still post onit ( Cardboard boxes anyone :) )..

I too remember the post, though i couldnt remember if you had actually gone and picked them up.

Well im still keen to get one aswell, but never heard back from you,

Greg

[chadtower]

Yep, no one heard what happened because shortly after that for some reason everything I sent to the list came back as unacceptable regardless of content. I don't know why and it continues to this day.

Do you have anymore of those modules left? I'd be interested in a trade.
