Couldn't find any other spot to get some help with this, so here I go:
Anyone know of a good place to track-down a Sega Saturn? Kind've got the itch to get my hands on one and Ebay isn't helping. Anyone got a decent, reasonably priced source?

Saturday morning trawls through garage sales might elicit a free-range Saturn.

EDIT: also school fairs and such; parents are always offloading old electronics to their schools. My missus' school had a fair recently and 2 PS1s and a Saturn plus TANGLE-LOADS of cords/controllers you name it (I think I even saw a light gun) turned up at the white elephant. No, I missed out; I was doing the WTFBBQ.

Anyway, that's another good place to find shit.

Also try your local cash converters and other shops like that. They can at times have some very interesting things for sale.

Sorry!! Acknowledgement to all involved!! Much appreciated.
I'm kind've online shopping at the moment, but I'll have to keep an eye out for any other non-online opportunities that present themselves. Although I've just tracked down someone who's selling 2 Megadrives, an MS and a Nomad (http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Sega-Mega-Drive-Sega-Master-System-2-and-Sega-NOMAD_W0QQitemZ110465792487QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_C onsoles?hash=item19b84639e7#ht_804wt_1165), WITH games, which is awesome. Only problem is the cash issue, as funds are tight now.

Does anyone know how much a toploading NES is worth? And how much would one expect to pay for an original NES with box and zapper?

Thanks.
