Is this a good price for a Saturn Action Replay?

He's been trying to sell these for months without luck.

3 for $20 is pretty good. I can't see if they are all the older model, the ones below look like a purple box they may be 4-1. I paid 25 for mine from ztnet.com.

He has them listed as $20 EACH I believe.

not so good if they are the old model. The newer ones have a bunch of extra storage memory which comes in handy.

The 4-1 model that comes in the purple box that was mentioned before IMO is worth the $20. The other ones I'm not too sure on. Haggle with him to get it down on the 4-1 model.

Personally, I already have a GameShark for my Saturn which also works as a memory cart. However I also have a separate memory cart which I use since the memory feature on the GS isn't always reliable. Neither one functions as a RAM source for the games that need it, but then I don't have any of those games anyway.

Mostly I was just curious why he's been having a hard time selling them.

I think he'd be more likely to sell them if he used a better picture. The presentation of his items is pretty poor. People like to see what they're buying especially when it's through a computer. A clear picture always help.

I like the action replay too because it's gentle on the cart slot.

My guess is that it's partially due to being in Nebraska. I'm from Norfolk and Saturn stuff is really rare. You're probably one of the only people in the area who has one! I'm sorta kidding, but i've found this to be true for the most part. I've been gone for several years but I don't know....has it changed there? Everyone I knew was a Nintendork besides a couple guys I knew who loved Genesis stuff.

Darn good point.

Wow bunch of nebraska folks here. I've actually picked up a bunch of saturn stuff on Omaha's craigslist. But I might be the only one looking for it. I may have to start checking out Lincoln's craigslist too. I already have a PAR, so I'm not interested, and $20 is a bit steep. If it's the model with a data port on it, it might be worth picking up though.

Any of you nebraska folks interested in getting together some Toe Jam & Earl when it comes up on the Together Retro calendar? It's so much better two player.
