My Neo Geo CD system came covered in a layer of grease and stank like smoke. And it actually came from a japanese seller that way.
I don't want to know how it came to get like that.
Word... Japanese people can be pigs too. Last month I bought a Sony MSX2 and got more than I bargained for.
When I found it the box was like new, flawless.. had all kinds of promotional stickers on it from back in the day.
I brought it home... pulled it out. It appeared to be in good condition.. a couple scratches here and there.. okay.
Turned it on and started messing around with it... noticed the keys were sticking pretty bad. So I decided to open
it up and give it a good cleaning. When I opened it up I found about 20 years worth of dust bunnies, food crumbs
and pubes packed in there tight. It also appeared that somebody poured what looked like tomatoe sauce all over
the keyboard.
I had to pull all the keys off.. and scrape all the gunk out with a flat head screw driver. Bleck... You get the picture.
Buyer beware!! Hahah..
