$10 Joust (pics)

[ArcRevival]

I'd toss that neighbor a gift card for Starbucks or dinner or a movie so next time she is out and sees a game she will text you again. Nothing wrong with a little finders fee when the game is that good of a deal. Nice one.

Dayum that's in nice shape too! Congrats on that score.

I saw the ad too, but was going out of town, awesome find and deal. The only thing close i've found was a road riot 4x4 and a super chase for $35 each. Still not as good a deal as you.

WOW love to hear these stories. Nice score!!

 

[descrentl]

Wow, what a great deal. Very nice..

In this economy I wouldn't have paid more than $5, but hey if it's a grail then more power to you for overpaying.

 

[TheDrewster]

Whatever the bid is, I double it!

Very nice find! Sure beats the crap outta my $20 Frogger!

The comment is full of win.

RE: throwing a gift card her way = great idea.

I usually check Craigslist but this weekend was busy with a soccer tournament so the window of opportunity was too narrow. The game ended up being just two streets over from mine.

It makes you really wonder just how many machines sit languishing in basements and garages, broken and forgotten. I ask at every garage sale I stop at and the answer is usually "no" but several times has been "yes, we have a Ms Pacman that quit working we'd sell" or any number of gems I've found simply by asking.

It's to the point now that my sons give me grief about asking at each sale, but hey, it works!

I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you.


Nice score. Dayum. But I do hate you. Argh.

 

[SuperBee4406]

its probably cursed. Everytime you play all the little men you see in the game are all the previous owners, that got sucked in Tron style. And your next.....muhahaha

By the way, awesome buy...........

Nice! Looks quite good for a Joust!

Hell, that's in as good of condition as the $50 Joust I picked up when I first started this hobby... I think I overpaid!

Nice score...

 

[gorfchampion]

I'm glad a fellow Klov'r got it! Hey nice score dude! I'm totally envious. I've been wanting a Joust for a long time now.

 

[Spyridon]

Good luck to anyone that tries to sell a Joust on these boards. Now the price police will refer to this to arrive at the value of a Joust.

 

[DP Louie]

Damn, that's a great looking cab, and the $10 price tag is unbelievable! I can't believe that it sat there for sale long enough for them to cross out the original price of $20! Your neighbor definately deserves that gift card. Congrats!

 

[nomore25s]

$10? Come on, that control panel isn't worth, oh wait, you meant the whole machine???



And yes, I know the CP is worth $10, it was a joke.

Sweet pick-up!

 

[wickedbass]
