I have a Bally Sente cabinet (green black) near mint condition. It comes with Mini Golf, Spiker, Night Stocker, Stocker, Hat trick, Give me a break, name that tune and billiards. This machine and all the controls, boards are in near mint condition. Probably the best you will ever see. I'm looking to sell these as a full unit or by piece. I have the overhead labels also which have never been used. email me if you are interested or would like pictures.

Serious inquires only. Craigslist scammers have wore me out !!!

Thanks for looking...
 
Come on. Not even an offer ??? Im not gonna give it away.I bet its in better condition than any 25 year old arcade most of you have seen.
 
I would take $1000 for everything. (night stocker alone in cabinet sold for 899 today on ebay) I'm in ohio, south eastern ohio to be exact.

sell it on ebay, sounds like it's worth $2000, why short-change yourself?

Fun system... and a nice collection of games for it, for sure. I had one and I collected most of those games for it over a couple of year period... probably spending as much and not having as nice a machine.

That said, I didn't get half that out of it. Not much love out there for this system as a whole.

Good luck with the sale... I would say it's priced fairly.

Sellers say that stuff all the time, and it doesn't mean a thing, and it always makes me laugh. eBay pricing is usually different than private pricing. If a game sells for $xxx on eBay and a seller wants that price, then put it on eBay.

What may fetch $900 on eBay may only fetch $400 privately. I've read sellers on CL saying that, for example, a Ms Pac fetches about $1500+ on eBay, so they list it as a "steal" for only $900. People need to learn that if they want big bucks for a game, then eBay is the best option, but it's also a gamble...

You get two people who want a certain machine, then a bidding war happens. Bidder A wins, and bidder B is still looking. Other people see this, so they flood eBay with the same game, but guess what? Only bidder B is now interested and no one else. No bidding war, so the game may sell for half the price.

I just saw that recently with Pub Time Premiere dart machines. One sold about a month or so ago for around $500, then next thing you know, there are 5 more sellers who are trying to unload them with a BIN of $350 or better. No bites.

Moral of this story is that just because a game auctions for $900 on eBay does not mean that it will sell privately for $900. Expect less.

Your thousand dollars sound reasonable....With the exception that the title you've listed: their cps are real nice to mint along with the marquess...

I looked for Night Stocker in the completed listing and didn't see it. Do you have a link? I'm not saying you're a liar but that is crazy it went for that much...Especially for not that are of a Sente cart. Not if were Snacks n Jaxson or Snakepit that's a different story. BTW, I own the plastic cab with a Gimmie A Break installed-Love that game!
 
i have 2 sente black & greens (gimme a break & mini golf) in great shape, and paid less than $100 for each. while they are fun games, they can be had pretty cheaply. in fact this is the second Gimme a Break i've owned, and both of them together cost me less than $100 working and in nice shape.

You are probably a good guy and all, but I see this too often on here. Someone posts something in a "For Sale" section, then people reply saying that the price is way off or they got them cheap for $XX.

If we think the seller is shady, then criticism is one thing, but if you don't like the price then move along. I see things posted all the time that I think are too high, so I don't buy. No reason for me to ruin it for the seller by slamming his price.

I, for one, have collected for going on 11yrs. I've never even seen the Sente cabinet in person, and his price seems in line, if it's all in good shape.

For the record, that is an OUTSTANDING group of games to throw into one cab. I hope you get higher than your price.
good luck
 
There used to be a web site, and this could have been 7yrs ago, where someone built a Snax n Jaxn or however it's spelled. They made a marquee for it, burned the eproms, etc..and made what they thought a dedicated would be in the Sente cab. It was neat. I played the game in MAME and I'd definitely want to play it in that cabinet.

I picked up a Hat Trick dedicated Bally Sente CT yesterday. First HT I have ever owned. Not sure what I am going to do with it yet. I have Stocker, night stocker, Gimme a break and now a Hat trick. They are neat games but they just dont seem to command a very high price. I sold a few of the daughters and CPs you mentioned to someone in Ohio a few months ago that was building a multi Senti that he could exchange daughters, marquees and cps with. How long have you had this? I also would suggest Ebay for the best return. That way you get the people on here looking as well as all the non KLOVer Ebay buyers.

Tron guy: How did that Stocker kit your friend bought from me work out? Did he get his machine running?
 
yeah, funny thing, once I got the kit and started to open it up, we wiggled his game around a bit and it worked again. lol

Then it went out again. The main pcb is mounted to a metal plate but sits kind of loose and I think it shorts out or something. I need to get over there tomorrow, and go over it thoroughly with your parts and fix his elevator action.
