Re: Archived arcade craigslist URLs
Not going to create Wayback URLs for them, but the same seller took these games out of storage: Millpede (1100), Star Castle (1250), Space Invaders (950), Sea Wolf (950), Gorf (1100), Stun Runner (1100), Xybots (1100), Scramble (1100), Zaxxon (1100), Battlezone (1300). Biggest listing by one dude I can remember in some time.

Re: Archived arcade craigslist URLs
I know right?! For fucking Scramble! Close to 1000$ for a Star Castle isn't too bad considering it is a rare vector graphics game IF the vector monitor and overlay are in great shape. I would maybe give 400 tops for a good Scramble whereas I'd give 550 for a good Gorf. Gorf has a lot of boards lol
Ah yeah I should have known with that wood grain. That would be a damn shame though. Frogger isn't one of my favorite games by far but that machine wasn't really meant to be converted into anything else.

Re: Archived arcade craigslist URLs
Man, pinball prices just keep climbing! Looking more and more doubtful every day that I will own a Funhouse or Fathom one day.
750$ for Shinobi is batshit insane. 350$ tops. Personally I would not give more than about 220.

Re: Archived arcade craigslist URLs
I have owned 3 Shinobi cabinets in my life and didn't pay $750 combined. I probably didn't pay $350 combined, haha.

Re: Archived arcade craigslist URLs
Right! I was thinking about all the Shinobis you owned. I almost got one for free a few years ago from a college but it was grabbed before I replied the ad.Flack wrote: Wed Jul 01, 2020 5:16 am I have owned 3 Shinobi cabinets in my life and didn't pay $750 combined.

Re: Archived arcade craigslist URLs
I'm seeing that the other arcade enthusiasts here are thinking the price on Shinobi is a bit extra. Noted!

Re: Archived arcade craigslist URLs
I don't know what good prices are anymore. I was watching D's online Facebook auction last night and a Missile Command PCB "that works, but is missing a couple of chips" sold for $200. Two non-working Pac-Man PCBs went for $160.

I'm not sure exactly how works but missing a couple of chips actually.. works but ok lolFlack wrote: Wed Jul 01, 2020 5:13 pm I don't know what good prices are anymore.

Non-working Pac-Man PCBs are great for learning PCB work on and perhaps at least one of those could be restored.. but you could just buy a working Pac-Man PCB for 100-120$

Re: Archived arcade craigslist URLs
A lot of games went up this last week. I'm going to try to save these links as moments in time. August 2020, the day the games arrived.
(Retro, is there a Chrome/Firefox plug in to do one-click saves in the Wayback Machine?)
Die Hard Arcade. Asking price: $900
https://web.archive.org/web/20200811123 ... 75515.html
Ms. Pac-Man. Asking price: $950. Saw this in person, it is nice.
https://web.archive.org/web/20200811123 ... 80385.html
Pac-Man. Asking price: $650. Saw this in person, was tempted, but I'd have to stencil it because if I ever go the Pac route I'd want it to look that way. (I may one day go the cabaret route for Pac-Man.)
https://web.archive.org/web/20200811123 ... 80525.html
Mappy cocktail. Asking price: $1499.
https://web.archive.org/web/20200811124 ... 81837.html
Two Asteroids cabinets are up, one in Englewood for $1100... this other one is not Asteroids, it is AD. $650 asking price in Brighton. Galaxian in Brighton with new monitor (asking price $700) and then a second Pac-Man for $650.

Re: Archived arcade craigslist URLs
900$ for Die Hard?! That game isn't even all that great! Just play it on Sega Saturn lol
950 for a good standup ms pac.. at least 350$ too high
650$ Ratty Pac-Man. Nope. More like 300$
Don't really know anything about Mappy
Galaxian for 700$ is kinda reasonable if you really like the game.

$1800 ask for Satan's Hollow
I owned that machine and sold it to the person that listed it there. I sold it for much, much less than $300. Sigh. :(
