In stores they're $99, which is good, but I'm looking to get the best deal on one. A friend lent me a bunch of games and even though Dreamcast is done in production, it's a good system and I figured what the hell... could be fun to have. ------------------ NOTHING BUT .NET CLUTCHCITY.NET
Funny you should mention this, but my friend asked me the same question this weekend, because I had gotten a great deal on a playstation a year ago. The best bet is to go to ebay, or Amazon and try to find an idiot that misspelled it, (like drmcast, or dremcast) Those people won't have near as many visitors, or try to find one that is in an innappropriate category, like furniture, or computers, etc. This is the best way to find a really good deal. However, I know that ebay already has brand new dreamcasts available for around $90.00 (including shipping) Hope that helps. ------------------ "I never did like that "Dr. Stupid""-Monty Burns
Do they have "Best Buy" in Texas? They've been known to sell 50 dollar games for about 12 in bargain bins and stuff like that. I'm sure you could find a fairly cheap Dreamcast. ------------------ Re-elect President Gore!
Yea they do. But the prices are most of the time always at their highest. I swear I have never seen a bargain there. And whenever you buy something and want to take it back, the crappy thing is they wont let u do jack without a receipt. ------------------ Charles Barkley on TBS on the "fat track" poll: "What? 47% said I'd gain more.....why those.....they better be glad this is a family show."

Tweak, you could just download them off the internet and burn them to a CD ... you might be able to find them on Napster if you know how to look for them. ------------------ Nice guys finish last ... and im surely not going to finish last!
The price of the Dreamcast console itself will rarely vary by much. Maybe a couple of dollars at most. The best way to find the best deal is to find the best coupon for it. For example, www.twec.com was selling it for $99.88. They also have a 15% off entire purchase deal + free shipping (not sure if those are stackable, though). Unfortunately they don't have any in stock at the moment. I'll see what else I can find since I'm sitting here waiting on servers... weeeee... ------------------ "I was arrested for sexual assault involving an elderly man and I was out in 35 minutes." -- Achebe - programmer by day, geriatric ass grabber by night.

I don't know if you have GameStop stores in Austin, but in SA you can get a used DC for about $60. I may pick one up soon. ------------------ What can change the nature of a man?
Just found a place online called buyrite.net that's selling Dreamcast consoles for $89.99 : www.buyrite.net I can't vouch for them. I've never done business with them. ------------------ "I was arrested for sexual assault involving an elderly man and I was out in 35 minutes." -- Achebe - programmer by day, geriatric ass grabber by night.
