    Collectors Cards and Games
    http://www.collectorscardsandgames.com/games.htm

    I have ordered from them several times in the past and have NEVER been disappointed. Great service, good prices, good selection. Write first before ordering and he'll double check that it's in stock, tested, and working. I've ordered Colecovisions, Sega Genesis/Sega CD systems, and even a box of 75 misc. common 2600 carts for a project. Can't recommend highly enough.

    I'll add Sega-Parts.com
    http://www.sega-parts.com/

    I haven't dealt with them so I can't say one way or another how they are to deal with. I see them on eBay once in awhile and they have a good list of software and hardware for many Sega platforms.

    I totally disagree with the inclusion of 4 Jays...I bought two SMS games from them, $25 each (commons, mind, one was Shinobi), and for my money, what did I get? Dog-eared manuals with writing in the back and water damage on the inserts.

    I highly reccomend you look elsewhere based off that experience. If nothing else, their pricing is quite uncompetitive (especially when one considers that these games can be found on eBay for much less).
