Title: Sega CD Craigslist Lot: Just missed it! Post by: ferris182 on January 15, 2015, 12:01:19 AM Hey guys,
This was a Craigslist lot from last year (Jan 2014) that I missed out on. The guy had it listed for $150 and he told me it sold for $100! The lot included a Genesis, Sega CD Model 1 and 60-70 boxed Sega CD games. (See attached pic) I just wanted to share this with you guys. I am still working on my Sega CD collection.

The best I can hope for is a console, but rarely do I even see vintage games. whoever got that got a sweet deal, especially for a hundred. hopefully it wasn't a non-gamer/re-seller that got it.
Title: Re: Sega CD Craigslist Lot: Just missed it! Post by: ferris182 on January 15, 2015, 12:28:15 AM Yes I agree the guy got a sweet deal. Funny thing is Craigslist has pretty much dried up and its very difficult to get any kind of deal w/ retro games since everyone wants Ebay prices. However, it looks like this was an exception.

Title: Re: Sega CD Craigslist Lot: Just missed it! Post by: ferris182 on January 15, 2015, 12:51:05 AM Yes that is Snatcher in the lower left corner of the 2nd row.
I wish I was a day earlier to get this lot. I didn't price everything out, but I think there is about $1,000 in stuff here if you add up the games and 2 consoles that were included.

That's unfortunate. Title: Re: Sega CD Craigslist Lot: Just missed it! Post by: GamerNick on January 15, 2015, 11:20:06 AM Ouch

Title: Re: Sega CD Craigslist Lot: Just missed it! Post by: gbpxl on January 16, 2015, 08:56:22 AM speaking of snatcher, I remember seeing a posting on eBay of blank Snatcher discs. they looked identical to the original from what I could tell, only there was no data on the bottom. it's really a shame that eBay doesn't give a f*ck about that stuff.
Title: Re: Sega CD Craigslist Lot: Just missed it! Post by: ferris182 on January 16, 2015, 11:47:22 PM He also told me over the phone that he had a bunch of RPGs in the lot.
I know its hard to tell from the pictures but I am sure he had at least the Lunar games as well as Shining Force. Title: Re: Sega CD Craigslist Lot: Just missed it! Post by: TheSaintOfPain on January 17, 2015, 08:39:44 PM I know exactly how you feel. Recently, someone on my local CL posted a loose Cheetahmen II for $100, only responding to emails. I was the second person to email him and just missed out on it. :( It's heartbreaking, and I'd imagine most of us have similar stories of that one deal that just got away.
