You are probably looking at $50-$75 for a working SNES system, somewhere around $100-$150 for a working Panasonic 3DO (wow these are getting pricy), and a Genesis/Sega CD/32x set is probably going to run you around $150-$200.

Best bet on something like this might be swap meets / flea markets or even yard sales. Finding systems usually isn't that hard as a lot of people (myself included) pass on them since they already have one (or two). You might be able to find a cheaper price.

Maybe somebody local has one they want to get rid of?

just look for a good clean system with all the parts and you're good.

Get the real panasonic 3d0 for sure, easy to burn games for it.  and for an all around great system get a dreamcast (same era)
