I'll pay you 50 bucks to share your secrets on how to purchase games for under 50 bucks
 
the secret..

i was thinking of selling the secret, lol
but maybe at 1000
all i can say is it would be the best 1000 you would spend, you would get it back in a few deals, and forevermore get more equipment than you can handle at the smallest prices imaginable
it is a set of philosophys and tactics developed over 20 plus yrs from myself, a former arcade and street route op, and collector, who wanted to stay in the trade amid the end of the trade for most., it is a win win, in that buyers and sellers are happy.
in the last 2 weeks, i got a top score pin for 40, and bow and arrow pin for 40 nice ones,
and a battlezone for 20, red white blue igt slot 20, megatouch c/tops 35 ea, burgertime cab 50, free minty space invaders dlx, and this is just last 2 weeks, in last 20 yrs you simply would not believe the list, especially not just in 50 or less range, yes i do pay more than 50 on alot also, although 10 yrs ago i did get a minty (but monitor service needed) ded. major havoc for 50 lol. and i did spend 500 on a twi zone pin that needed shop out...

This may work wherever you are practicing this philosophy...but apply these in the tri-state area NY/CT/NJ and lets see what you get. I'm thinking around the 500 mark..not 50.

honestly i wouldn't pay more than what you paid for any of those titles. cept maybe the TZ pin
 
The secret is to have a huge wad of cash and buy in bulk and have the space to store the stuff you don't want until it sells.. Really its not a big secret..just most collectors don't have the budget or space. ;)
