I was in Play N Trade the other night, and the owner had just got a complete Sega 16-bit hardware set traded in, being a Model 1 Genny, Model 2 SCD, 32X, and the extension plate (SCD) and shielding metal (32X only). He asked me what a Sega CD was worth, and honestly, I don't know a good price for just the hardware. I told him that I paid $90 for mine with a Model 1 and 20+ games including Sonic CD, and that I'd seen reports here of PnTs selling them for $20ish. I explained that the 32X is pretty iffy on value, especially if he didn't have the pass-through cable. He asked if $60 sounded reasonable for it all, which I thought sounded fair.
I've been wondering about it though. I've seen some Sega CD Model 2 units with $70+ asking prices, and I've seen them on the cheap side as well. It came with a Model 1 Genesis, which I believe he prices at $30. If the bundle includes the 32X passthrough cable, $60 might be a pretty good deal. If not, it's probably at least cheaper than buying a Genny and a SCD a la carte. The thing that really bothers me is that I'm not even sure if there's any real accepted value for these right now. Is there an expected range?
