Also, willing to trade for a like new medium resolution monitor, 25 inch for my Cruisn USA.......or for a Williams Road Kings Pinball, if there happened to be one local......
 
Free bump. Great looking Afterburner and an excellent price. I really like the
custom side art and surprised no one has made a repro of the original.
 
Dude,

I'd gladly talk trade with you for the RK, but it just sold this morning. I'm sure there will be plenty more opportunities for us to barter game in the near future though.

All,

Jeremy is a cool guy, and he does great work with his games. I hope someone will scoop up this AB soon!

cant seem to give this game away. it works perfect, Craigslist people email me constantly, but never show up, dont bring money, wanna pay 50 bucks, wanna wait umtil payday, want me to deliver it to Alaska, you name it..... ok, frustration out, i would keep it, just thought i would move it along and start a new project. I kinda more enjoy pinball games, and the actual restoring of these. I dont play the arcades as much as i should for all the work in them, i am not desparate for the money, but is 250 unreasonable for a redone game like this???

I think someone looking for Afterburner is going to want one with original sideart. That might be hurting your sale a bit. Other thing to consider is the fact that games aren't selling well right now.
 
you are probably right, i just have never seen one with decent side art. I think they all shrank and ripped off. I should just paint the sides black, or pink, i dont know

No! Some people may think I'm crazy for saying this (actually, I am), but I love games with custom painted artwork like this. I find them fascinating (provided that it is a quality job and not just someone doodling with a permanent marker). Maybe it's because I have and have seen SO many games that just have the original art, or just have black painted sides. But the idea that someone took the time to create and execute custom artwork like this is awesome. I'd buy this if I were local to you. Heck, the boards alone are worth $150.

If you're patient, this will sell. If not, I guess you can scrap it and sell the parts.
 
yeah........i dont really care if it sells or not, im just surprised it hasnt, i thought that price would blow it out the door. I have plenty of space to keep it. Seems like everybody wants to say "i would buy that, but". you wouldnt believe how many emails i have got that say that!!! At least 30!!!! Why bother emailing me? Am I missing something? I dont get it.... Ive even given my number to people who call and then say the same thing!!! seriously, ive never gotten anything to sell on KLOV either, just nobody near me, and I guess shipping is not an option? I have bought games and had the, shipped to me, I dont see what the big deal is... Maybe I should try Ebay, i will give it another week

Shipping would most likely at least double the cost of the game, so that is out for me. Afterburner is a game I would like to have, but $500 or more is too much in my opinion. I have only had one game shipped, and it cost me $300. I can see paying that to have a $3000 pin shipped, but it just doesn't make much sense for a $250 game.

Good luck with the sale though. The monitor looks great on that game!
