So, I had a chance to get a fully working Crystal Castles for 100.00 yesterday. I went to look at it and it was in nice shape. Artwork was nice and solid cab. It needs a trackball kit and new marquee and the monitor had quite a bit of burn. Earlier in my collecting days, (which wasn't that long ago) I would have jumped on it. This time, I passed it up. I liked CC growing up but I just didn't want to take the time to restore this and I really don't have anymore room left until I move into our new house. I also have a MAME machine that has a nice trackball and can play CC pretty spot on.
So, am I crazy for passing this up? I really like the artwork and Atari cabs, but I found myself offering a lower price, which he didn't take and so I walked...
Any of you have stories about great deals you passed up? Am I going to be kicking myself a year from now?
