I'd do it super cheap since I wouldn't have to buy any parts.

One thing that (I'd imagine) some modders do that most people don't: own a shitload of units. And then there's the ebay crowd, hoarding away NES controllers in their attic as an "investment". But all in all there's still a lot to go around smile

May be the lowest prices around. In the off chance something goes wrong, I guarantee my work and will fix/replace anything that goes wrong with it. No charge.
You were paying $100 per boy? I hope they had several mods.
I also do bulk deals. I charge $65 for a grey boy with a backlight and pro-sound. I actually charge even less for internal pro-sound rather than an added jack.

justin@thursdaycustoms.com if you would like to talk.

I like it) but mostly too expensive. Local purchases are the way to go - flea markets where people don't value these items the same way as we do. As usual. There's always a dude at my local flea with a huge pile of NES and GB consoles, usually working. Always cheap.

There's a tiny flea market on Sundays on the grounds at my work - I check it out whenever I'm around. A month back I got a grey gameboy in nearly perfect shape for $2 - she thought it didn't work but of course the contrast was set wrong. She was working hard trying to sell me a PSP1000 for like $90.

But you could still be in a position where units available on the open market are becoming more scarce, so that prices are going up. I.e., that the easy to find, cheap sales are running out. (This is hypothetical. I don't have much insight in how the market looks.)

If they weren't around, there'd be nothing to mod. So, logic dictates that as long as there are modders, there are stock Game Boys.
