Topic: *price drop* Sega genesis 3, two remotes and 15 games (Read 355 times)

Sold. 210$

You are misinterpreting "value" and "worth". 

Here's an example: Mortal Kombat GEN is listed as "worth" $6.38 on pricecharting for the loose cart.  But you can't find a single copy that's actually been sold recently.  In fact, you can find copies that aren't selling for $1: https://www.ebay.com/i/253276313381?rt=nc&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20160908110712%26meid%3D9a04ea782dbd466cbdbbcdd8f01953a0%26pid%3D100677%26rk%3D9%26rkt%3D30%26sd%3D123143318477%26itm%3D253276313381

So that $6.38 price doesn't mean anything because you can't realistically realize that value.  And it has zero trade value because there are very very very few people who:

A. HAVE a Genesis

B. WANT MK1

C. Don't already own it

D. Want a loose copy instead of buying a CIB copy for a couple of dollars more

E. Select you to buy it from instead of all of the other people who are offering it for less

Make no mistake, I'm not trying to haggle with you.  I have no interest in this lot as all but one game would be redundant in my collection and virtually all of it is worthless from a trade/sale perspective.  I'm giving you some perspective and letting you know that if you actually have an offer for $150 for the lot, you should be running to take it.

Just the game values alone is 150$
Look it up.
And yes offer is already at 150$ so why would I take 50$ less?

Everything in this lot together is 'worth' around $130-140.  When you consider that anyone who is interested in game collecting already has a vast majority of these games, and nobody is looking to trade for them (games like Sonic 2, MK, SF2, NFL), I'd be SHOCKED if you get more than $75 for the lot.  If someone offers you $100 you should jump at the offer.

You are a wonderful salesman. I am wondering if you would be willing to teach me some techniques? I am willing to pay for lessons.

I’m not even wasting my time reading that.

Your thread was not ruined by killyou73 requesting proof of the offer you are using as a "reserve". Your thread was not ruined by me showing my interest if you are able to prove the offer is legitimate. An offer that you received over a week ago is almost certainly not still available from someone on Craigslist; those people get what they're looking for the same-day or they find it elsewhere.

Newbie with negative feedback for begging for a loan without collateral is claiming we ruined his thread by asking for proof of his claims. Whining and complaining about your potential customers is the best way to ensure they never actually become customers.

I have done nothing, except provide a friendly tip about bumping your thread, encourage you to take killyou73 up on their offer and proclaimed my interest in the console. If this ruins your thread, then stop posting threads. You clearly have thin skin and cannot handle criticism or apparently even a simple conversation.

I would just lock the thread at this point, go with one of the local offers. You said you would prefer that, anyways; no need to beat a dead horse. You claim you have offers, so take one. You don't understand what is expected or how things are handled here.

Telling us we are wasting our time and life by asking questions is moronic. You're not going to get what you want from this sale or this thread, this much is clear by your temper-tantrum and the price being lowered multiple times.

Yes, my thread is pretty much ruined thanks to those two.. but whatever, I actually have local offers where the person can actually pick it up and test it out with cash in hand. I’d prefer that anyways. Just thought someone on here might be interested and in search for one and I could help. But all good. Yeah, I’ve been playing it for the past two nights now with my girlfriend, it’s a blast. Brings back memories

This thread has gotten a bit off track lol, just some advice maybe don't insult your possible customers lol. Even though people can be dicks on here and throw you lowball offers claim they get it cheaper yada yada always remain professional and you might still get a sale

Just some friendly advice

Also I love sega it was my first system ever! Fell in love with video games after that it opened pandoras box for me!!

This is also on Craigslist in Charlotte NC and on Offer Up for local meet up.
Look it up for yourself..
Hints where the offer came from.
Not wasting my time screenshoting a text message of the offer for you guys to troll even more and say I sent the message to myself or give out that persons personal phone number.
You guys trutly are wasting your time and life’s on this petty shit.

If you honestly have an offer, I would take killyou73 up on that deal. A free 1/10 oz of silver just for proving you have an offer on your item, that's the easiest 1/10 oz of silver you'll ever make in your life. That doesn't seem like trolling, it seems like an interested party calling you on your B.S. Now it your turn to either reciprocate, or come clean.

I'm somewhat interested in this console, and honestly I don't believe you have the offer either.

P.S. When you bump your thread, delete the old "bump" posts, so that your thread isn't multiple pages of "up" replies. This looks horrible.

What?.. What’s the point in your trolling here?
What satisfaction are you getting?
Is it that amazing that someone else offered 50$ more??..
Get the fuck out of here and get a life.
I’m disappointed in you.
I wouldn’t sell to you for my full asking price now.

Sure you got an offer. If you can prove it is by a trusted account and not some newbi I'll throw you a free 1/10oz of silver

Gambling addict?? Lol where the fuck did that come from?
I don’t know what you’re thinking but alright.. lol
And current bid is already 150$ guys. Price is pretty firm at 225$
If I was an addict I wouldve jumped to the first offer of 50$..
I make roughly 65k a year, I think I’m good

bro you need to seriously get some help. ive never seen a bigger sign IN MY ENTIRE LIFE than the one above you that says gambling addict. you seriously need professional help. Im not even trying to be mean but if its so obvious that its noticeable just by your forum posts, you need help. anyone who buys things from you is just contributing to his degeneracy

edit: the sega is cool so ill outbid the guy above me. $55 btc/eth escrow only

Just the games are worth 150$ + plus buddy

I'll give you $50 in btc

Hm, It does doesn’t it.. That is interesting but that’s for the first generation only I believe..
Maybe I should research more though.. thanks.

Google search for Sega genesis states it’s worth 2,000$ usd and that’s just the console alone.. why so low?

Whoops, okay well, one remote is a little iffy. One of the buttons stick.
But other than that, everything seems perfect.

Ohhh, that I did not know

Thanks for pics.

US won't do since the TV standards are different there than here in Europe.

Why won’t US do?

Didn’t clean it up but it’s been sitting for 30 years so, really not bad and can be whiped up and it works amazingly.

Pic of games as well

http://i64.tinypic.com/2mq9rmg.jpg

Yeah, please put some pics.
Too bad, I would love to find a Genesis in good condition, but a system from USA won't do.

It is USA, I can accept escrow and I do have photos I can upload shortly

Is it PAL or NTSC ? (European or american system ?)
Do you have any pictures ? Also, would you accept escrow ?

Thanks
