I don't really know how much these sell for so I need some advise. Condition of the cab is good and is complete but had vert collapse last time I powered it on last year. Not sure if the board works either but haven't gotten that far yet.

Well, its all relative to the buyer IMO.

Some people don't like the game at all and wouldn't give a penny for it.

Me, I love it and paid $400 for mine about 6 or 7 years ago.

If its working 100% I guess I would put it in the $250-$400 range to the right buyer.

If it has issues $100-$200(max) would be my guess. That's just my opinion. You're going to get many different ones I'd assume....
 
I'd beat their offers, but you're too far away. I paid more than that for a project machine just to get a cabinet.
 
Hey Rob, she (or I guess "he" since it is Mr.Do!) appears to be in pretty good shape. It looks like it does not have the original joystick- where did they all go, it seems like they never do! I wouldn't take less than $400 for mine. Your machine is only the second I have seen up here in at least 2 years and I bought the other. If you are interested in selling it, I have a buddy nearby here that is probably interested. Not sure if he would do 4 bills, but I think you could get that for it if you weren't in a huge hurry or were willing to ship it.

I agree with the gent earlier, some people love it and some people hate it, but those do not pop up much and definitely not in that kind of shape.

btw- thanks again for testing those boards and giving me some info on the HV, definitely appreciate that!

Hey Zack, no problem on the helping out on your stuff...hope ya get the 6100 going on my info! :)

So as for this game in non-working cond $200 wouldn't be out of the question?? Had a guy offer $60 but I thought that was a little too low. BTW what kind of monitor did Universal use in these things?? Doesn't look familiar to me.

$200 is very fair IMHO. FYI the only true dedicated Mr. Do! cab was a Japanese import, the ID tags/serial plates would correctly identify it as such. It had the small black ball joystick as standard. The majority of the other cabs were lady bug to mr do conversions. The woodgrain t-molding was typically on the dedicated. Of course there are almost always exceptions.

I'd say $150-$200 for what you described would be reasonable.

We love our Mr. Do and I can't imagine ever selling it. :)

Mr. Do seems to be a hit or miss game. Some people see it as a knock off of Dig Dug and hate it while others like myself really enjoy the game. I had a sweet cocktail and sold it for space reasons. Along with Red Baron, Mr. Do is one of the games I regret selling. I would agree with the $150-$200 price for it's current condition.
 
Ok here is an update on "The Do"...I was able to have it play blind and also found a little bonus in the cab! Next to the Do PCB is a Mr.Do Castles that also played blind. I'm going to hook up an external monitor to the cab and verify the boards are functioning and go from there. The original recapped Toei monitor is in the game but has vert collapse and I don't really have time to fix it, not to mention I'm not familiar with these. Is $275-$300 a fair price for the game?? It's in great shape and has the back doors with key!

If you're not going to fix the monitor, what are your intentions with the game? That's what I'd ask myself. Is it playable?
