My latest additions:)

Picked these 2 lots up a couple of weeks ago. The Turbo Grafx with Booster lot was a barter trade for some junk DJ lights that werent worth shit. The guy was a crackhead and maybe wanted to throw parties?  The Sega CD with 32Xwith all games and controllers were $100 on Craigslist. Best titles, Robo Aleste, Lunar, Final Fight CD, & 2 copies of Sonic CD.

Terminator is also very good, and most people don't realize this but NovaStorm is pretty uncommon and kind of hard to come by.  Nice lots

Today I picked up:
Sega Genesis for $10 with all cables and two controllers.

Paid for Pier Solar (now I just need to find a Model 1 Sega CD).

Pre-ordered a Wii-U.

Arranged a trade of a terrible old digital camera I have for an SNES2 and 13 games.

Pretty good day.

Although the model 1 sega cd looks sexier, go with the model 2. Much more reliable although ugly. I have 2 model 1's and they are very random. Both trays have issues from time to time.

I've always heard the opposite where Model 1s are the more reliable unit.

Well, the cd tray can get misaligned (ie tray won't close properly) and/or the belt can get worn. I had chop repair mine, and now it's as good as new. The model one looks real nice.

Is there one that's more reliable than the other as far as actual playback is concerned?

[munchiaz]

[wilykat]

I've owned a PAL for a while, but haven't yet found a use for it. It's only looking cool at the moment. Though it does seriously look cool with the grey case and controller, IMHO...
