New PAL Turbo Grafx units can still be found at:

VIDEO GAME SOURCE (http://www.videogamer.de)

Not that I like the store very much, but it has some pictures on it's
side, so it's always worth a check....

I remember a large full-page ad from NEC back around 1989 in a german 
videogame magazine where NEC stated that can't provide service on 
grey-imported PC Engine units.

That must have been a few years before those PAL Turbo Grafx units had been
introduced....
