So listen. I would like to become video game collector, which at the current moment is sort of impossible because I can't afford to buy too many video games with my income (I'm 17, so I have no income). Despite this, I have made some pretty decent additions to my collection as of late. For starters, My cousin Eric sold me his dreamcast for $40, and for $40, I bought a PS1 and some old Sega Genesis games from my cousin John. He would have also included an actual Genesis with those games but since his old Genesis is M.I.A I was forced to settle. I figured since I was on the internet, I could turn to my favorite hardcore gaming community and see if they'd be willing trade me a sweet old Genesis in exchange for some greenbacks. Now, I know what you must be thinking, "LOL eBay". Well, FUCK eBay. I'd like to buy from a seller that won't subject me to the hassle of PayPal (although if that's the only option I guess *sigh* I guess I understand) and from a seller that I can trust to not send me a box full of rocks or whatever. So, do I see any potential sellers? Here's what I'm asking: -A Sega Genesis 16-bit console in decent condition (No cracks or other obvious damages). Cables and at least one (1) controller a must. -Name your price (keep it under $70) -I'd perfer if you included shipping and handling in your price. -Serious offers only (so fuck off trolls)

b) Forums are thataway. ------------->
Hmph. Forums. I'll bet if I posted this in the forums, someone would tell me to blog it. I just want a Genesis, dude :(
Also, what Garison said.
Retail stores, supermarkets, fast food, and manual labor jobs always need people.
Obviously neither of you have tried to get a job in today's economy, its hard even for people with college degrees, you think they're gonna hire a high school kid?
Not to mention that even the jobs he could be hired for are highly competitive because of the economy and everyone needing a job so even a position flipping burgers is sought out for.
So both of you can shut the fuck up, don't be so goddamn ignorant.
Your welcome.
Also, don't be mean Kyousuke. It's tough to get a job, but its not an impossibility. If you keep an eye out for a job thats open to a 17-year old, you'll find that companies are more than willing to hire them. They'll often settle for much less pay than a college graduate. I do see the angle you're coming from though, and it certainly is valid, but theres no reason to be so harsh about it.
I'm looking right now at a Sega Genesis in my local salvation army. It includes all of the neccesary cables, a controller and a copy of Barney' Hide and Seek. Its sticker price says $3.50, today is half price day.
I'm sorry. There is no way I'd give this up.
ugh...Dude, type in "Sega Genesis" on ebay and pick from the 500 consoles in the list.
So, like, don't read the entire blog post or anything. What ever you do, don't do that.
