i have a stack of genesis systems and three saturns to sell, but NO (0) rf switches and NO (0) A/V cords for the saturn. anywhere online that sells these cheap($3 or so each)? i dont want to take from my personal collection to sell these systems, and dont want to spend $7 on an RF switch on a system i can only sell for $10-$15.

anyone have an online retailer that can provide these items?

You're probably not going to like their prices on RF switches. But honestly, depending on which models of Genny you have you might as well bite the bullet and buy some A/V cables. Genny I will take a generic substitue, but II and III are proprietary all the way. I can't imagine you'll find RF boxes anywhere in the price range you want without AV cables being a couple dollars more.

And as for the Saturn A/C cable there is no substitute item for that save the original cables. Sega Parts has them for $20 and that's a steep but fair price as far as I'm concerned. I can't imagine touching one of those for less that $15 anywhere.

EDIT - Changed "Saturn A/C cable" to "Saturn A/V cable" - stupid, subtle typo.

I just realized the Edit key is gone and I look like a triple-posting jackass, even more so with this post :embarrassed: :embarrassed: :embarrassed: .

Man, the board is down for three or four days and I seem to forget how to do everything....

A/V, not A/C. That's all.

/hangs head in shame.
