WTB: Genesis 2 hook-ups

[VestCunt]

I need a STEREO (not video/mono) cable and AC adapter for a genesis 2 deck.
I picked the deck up at the thrift store for $3 but it didn't come with any cables.  They're easy to find on ebay, but don't want to get raped on shipping.

I originally ordered both parts through the nintendorepairshop.com and I've had tons of problems with them.  They are no longer returning my emails and I recommend that no one do business with them.

Your more then welcome to a free ac adapter I have for a Model 2 deck,you will have to pay shipping,and I will need to dig it out and test it first. As for stereo cables,hit ebay. They do have them now and then.

I recently bought a bare Genesis 2 deck as well (absolutely flawless cosmetic condition, which is the main reason I went ahead and got it). The best deal I could find on eBay for accessories was from a seller named gameliquidation. He sells AC adapters, stereo AV cables, and control pads individually, but it's better to buy them bundled. Usually he seems to sell an AC adapter, stereo AV cable, and two six-button pads for $14.95 and $19.95 BIN. Hardly anyone bids on them so you should be able to get them for $14.95. Shipping was $8.25. Not sure if you'd feel ripped off by that or not. He ships them stuffed into a padded envelope first class mail, which isn't the greatest, but it's unlikely the goods will be damaged (not like a fragile cardboard game box or jewel case).

The AC adapter was Performance brand, the AV cable was Recoton, and the control pads were Sega branded (but they looked like the Majesco rereleases of the pads, not the original Sega ones). At the time, that was the best deal I could find for those accessories on eBay, including shipping.

Thanks for the info PC Gaijin, that's not a bad deal.  I don't think I'm going to go that road because I don't really need 6-button pads or want to get into Genesis gaming.  I have an old 3 button pad I've been using for my SMS and I only want to use this deck for Sonic and maybe Phantasy Star 2 or 3 someday.

Michael, please let me know when you find that AC plug and I can pay you whatever you think reasonable for your pains.

Anyone with spare AV cables let me know!

Ahh,see now your confusing me with Bullseye,Im only going to charge him for the shipping cost. Like $5.50. Thats it. Im not sure why he doesn't go for the combo listed above though,as it would get him a video cable too. Thats the route Id take,but thats just me.

Actually, I never intended to make any comparisons.  I was only assuming that was the price and I turned it into a cheap laugh.

But $5.50? That's a steal!

*wonders if there really is a guy named PCEngineHell in Truth or Consequences, NM* :

LOL,Arkansas. Crappy sucky Arkansas.

[PC Gaijin]

Sega-Parts used to be fairly cheap for some stuff, and yes they did discover eBay awhile back. They used to sell Saturn Bomberman brand new for $30 (which is a good deal). Then one day I noticed they were selling a few things on eBay. Next thing you know they pretty much stopped selling a lot of things from their website (and what's left is jacked up, like Bomberman). To get an idea of what they used to be like, I bought a brand new in box Power Base Converter from them about five years ago for ten bucks.

But...Bill Clinton is from Arkansas.

And don't forget that Erik Estrada likes to advertise Hot Springs, Arkansas on TV!

The genesis ac adapter has been shipped,check your paypal account,and you should have  a tracking status there.
Well,we do have alot of very nice used game stores all over,arcade vendors who sell to the public,tons of pawn shops to hit,used cd stores,toy stores,comic shops,ect ect.. all over Arkansas. We also have some of the scariest getto neighborhoods Ive ever seen from California to Georgia,if you ever go to the industrial side like Rose City. There they even have getto apartments named Hemlock,after the poison.
We have a TON of theaters,even a indie one,theme parks, and so on. It all really depends where you go. its one of those things though where Ive seen all of it already,and Im bored. But,Ive seen all of it about from the east to west coast,so id probably be bored everywhere.

[PCEngineHell]

Maybe thats what happened to Dean,he got bored,and now thats why he is in hiding at his new house filling it full of crappy Vailiant comics of good ole Magnus Robot Fighter off of ebay.

Good god,is that whats in store for me,collecting crappy Magnus and Rai comics......is that all that is left. Is that all thats left in the world.Left for me....
