Came across this post while doing my normal search of craigslist:
http://madison.craigslist.org/vgm/1842906633.html

They have a bulk price of $5k for everything (averages to ~$220 per unit). Most of them seem to be working, but the pictures are horrible. I emailed them on prices for individual pieces, and got the follow:

Sit in "1942" - works $300
Aqua Jack - been recapped - works $275
"Vindicators" part II - works $250
X-Men Children of the Atom - works $300
Marvel Superheroes - works $300
2 machine Cruisin USA - 1 works, 1 doesn't (has the lit connector across the
top) $650
Sit down Vapor TRX - works $500
Blitz (2 player) - works $400
Stargate - play button issues $300
Large screen sit-down Starwars Trilogy w/sub-woofer - works $1500
Crazy-Bowl- works $300
Sharp Shooter- works $300
Police Trainer - INOP $100
Egg Venture - INOP $200
Centipede - works $300
Raiden - works $275
Mr. Do's Wild Ride - works $200

Arkonoid - works $300
Road Blasters - works $250
Stand-up Starwars Trilogy - INOP $200
2 player NAMCO racer - INOP $200
Coin changer - INOP - $150

Don't think I'm going to pick any up, so thought I'd pass along the info. The two player crusin' seems like a good price, but just don't have money or space for it right now.
 
I got the same list. Thought the Crusin price was pretty good too, but I'm also short on cash and really would hate to haul that down to the basement.
 
Just wanted to bump this. I picked up the Stargate yesterday. As advertised and very friendly an nice to work with. He still had most of the games there.
 
Used games

I picked up some games from him, as did my brother-in-law. He's a really nice guy (a Pastor and it's a youth center), and if you buy more than one, he'll move on the prices. Just wants to get back around what he paid.

Most of the non-working games stopped working after he drove them to his place from Illinois. Just stopped working on the drive with the bumpy roads, and he didn't ever bother fixing them. Just had the working ones all in one room and parked the others.

He has since sold his 2 shooters as well, and I picked up Centipede, Raiden, the Star Wars Trilogy, and my bro-in-law got the Cruisin USA dual machines.

He came down on the Star Wars Trilogy that was working, and gave me Centipede and Raiden for $200 each. Centipede is beautiful (just needs some work on the control panel), and the Raiden has a monitor issue I believe, but I love that game and have been waiting to add it, so I'm willing to tinker and fix it.

He's a great guy, and some of the ones he has left look great. I don't know that he'll go lower than $200 for the working ones, but he'll come down a little bit. I'd recommend it if you're looking for a nice game and live in the area.
