fleaBay... I like that. :-) I agree that their customer service is not the best--that a lot of their reps don't seem to know what they are doing. I had to call multiple times and really defend myself to get my neg removed. Fortunately, I did have the time to do that. I'm really sorry you are having problems with them. Wish there was something I could do to help.

Oh-kay! Sounds like JOHNSGIRL2 may have had their internal bits taken out. Maybe if more people complain to eBay? I don't know. Just grasping at straws for all of you because I do a lot of buying and selling on eBay and know that there are a lot of jerks there. I did have a neg removed once so maybe if eBay gets enough complaints and it is pointed out to them that many people are complaining, they will take action?

Has anyone reported JOHNSGIRL2 to eBay? They might be willing to remove negative feedback and take other action against the person if multiple people file complaints.

Sold him some 2600 carts and controllers. He paid quickly and communicated well. I woukld definitely do business with him again.

Sold him a Genesis case and manual. Nice person. Very easy to deal with. Paid immediately. Would gladly do business with him again.

Mine's a 2 then. Thanks!

How do I know if I have a Gen 1 or Gen 2 Genesis? Need to know for the RF and power cables. Thanks! ETA: If necessary, I will try to post a pic sometime this week.

Thanks, both of you. I appreciate the advice. I think I will break up the lot into components. I am going to have to go with eBay, though, because I'm disabled and can't drive to meet someone locally, and won't allow a pickup where I live--too dangerous. I'm doing a lot of eBay selling right now and have my own postal scale. I just ride my electric scooter down to the mailboxes to give the mail carrier my packages. So even with the fees, eBay is the lesser of 2 evils right now.

Finally got to test this today. Everything except the 2 player joystick works. I've been looking at eBay though and am thinking I may do better to sell it in parts like I've been doing with some of my other systems. Am I right about that?

Sold a power supply to him. Friendly guy and great communication. Would gladly do business with him again.

Thanks! I am going to make it $110.00 OBO. I'm open to some haggling, especially since I don't have to ship it. It will just be my usual of "No low ball offers."

Paid promptly and is very friendly. Would gladly do business with him again. Thanks!

Thanks Austin!

Hooked up the system and checked everything. Everything works fine except River Raid. I did everything but open it up to try to get it to work, and at best I get a bunch of ASCII characters. Bummer since it has a box and manual. I think I will still include it, though, because of the box and manual. I'll just have to note that the cart doesn't work. Q*Bert was fussy at first, but once I cleaned it, it worked fine. And I discovered that Frogger has 1 overlay. Next step is to clean everything and take pics, which I hope to do tomorrow. Then I can list it on CL.

Sold him the infamous Pac Man playing cards. He communicated well, was very friendly, and was patient with my slight shipping delay. Would gladly do business with him again.
