Backstory: the wife's family comes over during the summer and there's downtime before dinner, so I plug in the ol' toaster and my nephews and neice (and my daugher) are transfixed. Anyway, my mother-in-law commissions me to buy a console and games for my 8 year old nephew and, yep, I arrive in Buffalo and no console. paid? yep, in septemeber. Yes, my fault for not checking in and asking about everything, whatever.

Problem: I have my NES starter kit for my bro-in-law's family for our late xmas, but no console. On ebay, meh, expensive and untrustworthy.

Solution? YOU! Do you have a NES console (toaster or 101) with hookups (RF or RCA/power) and two controllers for sale? DO YOU!? Oh dear God, please help a long-time member and soon-to-be broken hearted boy.

Willing to pay $50, plus shipping. doesn't have to be pretty, I've restored many a NES, just works. PLEASE PM ASAP! Thank you and Merry Christmas!
