    I acquired the beautiful Divers recently but the seller had no clue where the controller went! I know it is a long shot but if you can find one for a decent price (translation: as cheap as possible) let me know!

    While you're here, you can stare at my baby...

    Imho is beautiful, I have to buy one some day. Vegi-saurus I've seen a Divers 2000 CX-1 controller, but in Yahoo! Auctions (7800 Yen).

    It's just an expensive substandard TV. I, on the other hand, think it is one of the nicest ever console produced thus far. :p

    You should get yourself one. Best thing ever since sliced bread! Thanks Fatalist but that is currently way out of my budget. I'm thinking of around US$30ish max.

    I'll ask a few people I know. Divers are dime a dozen right now it seems. I know lots of people with new ones for sale. In fact nearly everyone I know who has a divers is trying to sell it (and failing). Seems noone wants them currently.

    I got mine for about US$500. But they've sold for up to US$800+ on the higher scale the past few months.

    I think they're absolutely stunning, but I can't imagine what persuaded Sega it would be a good idea to make them in the first place.

    $500 sounds like a reasonable price - do they go any cheaper?

    I'd love to have one, i think they look cool.. The problem is always the shipping on the damn things.

    Lower? Not likely...unless you get real lucky.

    And expect shipping to be high as this thing is like 50lbs.

    FOUND! I finally managed to get a hold of an orphaned Divers controller! My baby is now complete!

    But i am still looking for a boxed clear VMU and a boxed clear controller (or just its box as i already have a loose controller)!

    Well done on the controller

    I have always wanted one, but the shipping to the UK is the pain and those who have one in the UK normally want to try and recoup this in the sale :-(
