Interest Check- new manufacture DUO AC adapters

[omnedon]

OSG has an opportunity to have a run of AC adapters made. The number one request we get, that we cannot fill, is for Turbo DUO and PC Engine DUO replacement AC adapters.

I have to make a minimum run of 1000 AC adapters. That quantity I cannot change, and for a business the size of OSG, it's a pretty serious commitment.

What I need to know, is how many people (if any!) would be interested in buying these.

OSG would likely be retailing these at about $19 per AC adapter. Shipping would be an extra $6 anywhere in North America.

I'm considering doing a pre order, if enough interest exists. If I did do that, you would need to put down a refundable $5 deposit on the pre-order of the AC adapter. (it would be refundable if the delivery fell through on our end for any reason). I would be also willing to offer a $5 discount to those who went with the pre-order, so the total for pre-ordered customers would be $20 shipped.

This is NOT a pre-order call. This is OSG sticking it's toe in the water to see if pursuing getting these made is wise, or foolish. Your feedback (pro and con) is appreciated, as opinions both ways will help me decide how to proceed if at all.

Comments welcome!

I think its a good idea. especially if there smaller than the original ac adapter. Do you have a pic of a prototype and perhaps shell color options like white for duo-r and rx and black for us duo?

I'd be interested in a few for the Turbo Grafx Cd if that is possible.

So far, across all the forums, I have serious interest for about 30 DUO AC's, and about 8 TurboCD AC's.

I need numbers in triple digits. I'll watch it for a while. =)

As cool of an idea as this is, I highly doubt you're going to find around 1000 people that would be interested in this. I don't think it would be in the best interest of your business to move forth.
