Hi guys just curious as to how much Id be able to get a R7 Black Dreamcast for?

Have just yesterday bought a PAL DC from Gamestation for 22.99 but would still love to obtain a Black R7 beautiful Dreamcast.

Any ideas on prices and availablity?

availability - ebay only really and the usual japanese collectable stores... youre really not gonna get much change out of £150.

Its not that nice a machine, horrible lettering on the front, and its also quite common in terms of limited editions.

There seems to be more US and JAP games going on eBay though than PAL and i feel left out!

Get it modded then, or use a DC-X disc, much cheaper :)

Going rate for a mint boxed one is $200 plus shipping. It's not as hard to find as I thought it was tbh, brand new ones are still obtainable with a smidgen of patience :)

I saw loads of them on the shelves in Tokyo in January,and i seem to remember it being around 70 quid.
See if someone can pick one up for you,although i have to agree its not that nice a machine.

Get your DC sprayed by me, a fraction of the cost, and looks better. ;)

Just had a thought. I would get the smoky black case from Liksang,looks far superior IMO.(to the R7,not 007's handiwork.)

The black US sports edition looks similar and is way cheaper.

Sure thing boss. I won;t charge you or anything, just cover postage and the spraying. I'll make a mint job out of it. I've done a metalic black DC before and it looks the tatties. :)
