    In design it's different than ones I've seen online but I'm pretty sure that's beacuse it's British not US

    overall not bad condition. Working fine. Couple of scrapes and nicks. A couple of missing pieces of trim below the control panel. If anyone could give me a rough idea that'd be awesome.

    Also are these regionalised does anyone know? What's inside one? Stripped back decased SNES? Will it only pay PAL games? Only super system games presumably not normal SNES carts? How much do games go for?

    If anyone can answer my questions it'll be you good folks!
    My huge thanks in advance to snyone who can shed a little light!

    I think the most I've seen one go for here in the us is about $250. Most arcade collectors aren't interested in them.

    I'm inclined to agree, but that's a maximum in my mind.

    I'm a buy REALLY LOW, sell REALLY HIGH kind of guy.

    If I were to try and sell a Super System like this, I would start at $500 and be ready to move down a whole lot. People love feeling like they're good at negotiating. I'd drop it down to 350 or so, they'd feel smart and get to tell their wife how good they are at haggling, and I'd make a tidy profit, as I wouldn't pay more than 200 for one (and that would be if I was suddenly really jazzed about super system).

    Really it's 100% proprietary and you'll get sick of it real fast. No swapping in other boards... it's gonna be a white elephant.
