My Ebay Genesis adventure

Post by maxyboy »

I just piruchased a Genesis model one with 2 controllers, an in box copy of Sonic 2, and a small problem with the internal wiring(You have to prop up the cord for it to work) for 22 dollars on ebay. Was it worth it?

Which cord are you talking about? It seems likes its only a loose solder connection. Not a daunting task if you can handle a soldering iron. But as for the price it seems OK.

You could have gotten a working Genesis for less. Shitty that you got a broken one for that price. Did the guy selling it tell you there was a cable problem?
