Sega Genesis Hardware Notes
Model 1 (the original, made in Japan or USA depending on year) and Model 2/3 (the smaller, later revisions) are both common and both hold up well mechanically — the cartridge slot doesn't have the NES's connector problems. Original power bricks are the more common failure point after decades of use; a dead brick doesn't mean a dead console.
No guesswork
How we get to your offer
We pull the live market comp for Sega Genesis Model 1 Console on Sega Genesis, then apply the same locked rates we use on every trade-in: 55% of comp in cash, or 85% in store credit. No lowball guesswork, no per-item haggling. The comp is the only input, and the math is the same for a common sega genesis console and a grail.
