got mine for 30 with the 32x attachment.

neither work very well at all, but its nice to have as a display piece.

15 or 20 is a decent price.

Honestly man there is not. I only collect Sega Genesis so it kinda makes it hard.

If you want to straight up buy them your more than welcome. But i understand if you dont.

Thanks for the offer, but no thanks. There are games on my wishlist that are higher priority for the little money I have to blow (which is none at the moment, lol). So I'm looking to trade to save money.

That's probably gonna be the case for a while since me and wife are talking about buying a house this year.

I know I don't have much to trade, sorry. I'm partial to most of what I have and have long since traded most of the games I'm not partial to.

No problem man. Totally understandable.
Me and the wife bought a house last year and now i just recently switched jobs. so the game collection fund has gotten a bit low also.
Plus im the same way with being partial to the games i have.

General / Re: Where do you buy your games?

« on: January 23, 2013, 09:25:44 pm »

I usually hit up our local flea market when the weather is nice. Local resale shops, and then local retro game shops if i'm looking for something specific.
plus craigs list.
With EVERYONE having smart phones and Ebays inflated prices on retro games now a days its hard to get REALLY good deals even at a flea market.
Not saying its impossible but it makes it a lot harder.

I haven't hit up any garage sales since i started this hobby, so when the weather gets nice that will probably be a weekly thing for me.

And the best place i have found to get good deals on sega games (since that's all i collect) is FACEBOOK. yes FACEBOOK.
If you look there are people creating re sale groups you can join and scroll through everyone's post's of used stuff they are trying to sell.

Just Monday i spotted a posting by a girl who was at her moms resale shop and had a sega with about 10 or 12 games for sale.
She posted a list and saw she had 2 games that i wanted and only cost 6 dollars a piece. Both were complete and in box. Both worth well over the 6 dollar price tag. drove to the town next to me and grabbed them up. From when she posted to when i bought the games it probably only took an hour at most.  I currently am a member of 6 resale groups with a combined total of 16,667 members. That is ALOT of people selling stuff. plus these groups are searchable for specific things.
Cant tell you how many game lots i have bought for cheap this way.

Hey Brannon, I'm new myself but welcome to the site... Did you get the Sega Channel as well? it is truly unfortunate that they didn't keep it around or someone make another version like it for the sega system.. funny this guy wanted $50.00 for it at the flea market... almost bought it but thought better since sega channel really doesn't exist.

nah thats the one of the things i dont have. and honestly unless if falls into my lap for stupid cheap im not going to buy it. The only reason i got a sega cd and 32x attachments were because someone was selling it for stupid cheap.

and i would not pay 50.00 for it. like you said its pretty useless.

that last post was my most recent pick up.

Until a few mins ago.

off yet another facebook tip

Both were 6 dollars a piece.  Both complete in box. Except the instructions for battletech is a laminated copy from a rental store.
they had some other games but i either already had them or they were REALLY common games.
