Thank god I didn't get in on that deal. Never noticed that they are refurbished. The warenty is probably something like 30 or 90 days.

The Dreamcast $99 Deal of the Day was NOT a refurbished model! It was brand new. When Buy.com sells refurbs it clearly says so in the description. The reason someone thought it was a refurb is that many of the Deal of Day items are refurbs but this one was not. Congrats to those that got in on a brand new Dreamcast for around $80. Incredible deal.

Yep, Raj, it's time to take the meds. Heh. Unless it expressly says "refurbished", you can bank on it being brand spankin' new.

Has anyone who ordered one received their DC yet? My order has been "sent to warehouse" for the past 4 days while my accessories I bought (game, 2nd controller) arrived today. Is this common?

davehow126,
Use you Buy.com order number at UPS's site to "Track by Reference Number". It may come up with a package that you've not yet received.
