    thks, guys
    For 80 bucks you can usually score a brand new one with 1 controller and AV cables on ebay. That's not including shipping though.

    If it comes with some immaculate games, it might be worth it. As it sounds, I'd pay 40-50 at most. That's CDN prices I'm talking too, regardless of how high our dollar is compared right now, your still probably better off knocking it down 10 bucks or so in conversion.

    Bad deal IMO.

    Edit: just saw title. LOL 'New In Box' Good deal then.

    If it's an ebay deal, and from 'PNP Games', I'd be sketchy on it if I was you. They sell 'New' dreamcasts, in opened boxes with resealed stuff (web browser, Demo disc, maybe controller)

    I got one from them that was 'New' but inside it was resealed, black Sega Sports edition. Nothing in the description states this though. I would be mindful of their other stuff too, they sell DS games 'cheaper' than normal, they word their store section as "Nintendo DS & DS Lite", and they sell the bootleg Saturn USB pads. I wouldn't doubt them selling bootleg NDS games out of Canada/USA themselves and I wouldn't trust them for Dreamcasts being new.

    Price is about right for a brand new one, as for the vendor itself, who knows. I'd buy it. They look reputable enough. Search the internet for feedback on them before buying anything though.

    I don't see a paypal/google checkout option though. So that would kill my interest personally.

    that's what ShopSafe numbers are for. Kind of a PITA compared to PayPal, but if it's a deal, ya gotta do what ya gotta do.

    Why do people have to come into threads and shit on them if they don't like the price?

    Those DC units look to me like the reburbished ones that started popping up in 2005.

    Here's another option. They give a 10% discount at checkout. I KNOW these are new in the box (cause I bought one from them), no reseals here. This is the company that bought out Sega's leftover stock when they got out of the console business.

    They also accept PayPal.
    Ow! My small intestine!

    Thanks for the post... what kind of A/V Cable did you get with that box? A Composite cable or an S-Video cable or both?
