Sega was already clearing out the old Sega CD. You could buy a new one for $99 and a used one for about $45. It was about the same as selling your Genesis.

I don't know why, but looking at your avatar and reading that post made me LOL.

Hawking shit to the game store wouldn't be so bad if they didn't fuck you up the ass on trade in value.

Seriously, going to the store and getting 12% of the value of the game right now, or waiting a week and getting 50% value of the game is a big-ass difference.

I thought they weren't still together, but when I started working at Circuit City, and I mentioned Media Play they were saying that it was owned by Best Buy and I shouldn't shop there, etc. Of course, I told them I'm still gonna shop where I please.
