Pickup a really nice Qix machine today. Smooth transaction all around with mac622.

Forgot how much I enjoyed this game. In the garage until I can get some help moving it to the basement, but should work well in the lineup.

Monitor is great with no noticable burn in and bright colors:

Couldn't be happier with the purchase.

Thanks Ian!

nice to see one thats not a rough conversion. clean man. NICE! I wish i could buy a game, times have been real rough. Im glad somebodys still buying games.
 
Great pickup, Chris! It's kinda weird... I never really cared for Qix Bitd. It wasn't till about 10 years ago I had the Qix epiphony and love it!
 
Thanks everyone :)

This may not be the nicest Qix out there, but it really is the nicest I have personally seen. There's some bubbling on the monitor surround, but I can live with it. It really isn't super noticable unless you look for it.

The cabinet is rock solid, the back door is intact, the monitor is great with no burn-in.

Could not have asked for anything better.

Ian was an absolute pleasure to work woth as well. Very prompt with communications, very accomodating to my scheduling. Helped load it up too.

He had a Defender that is as nice as the Qix if anyone is interested in that. He is a great seller.

Wow... that's the best looking one I've ever seen. Nice pickup!
 
Looks to be in great shape. I regret selling the Qix I had a couple weeks ago, but it was so I could buy a pin. Most of them I've seen are pretty beat but it looks like you got a good one. Have fun - Barry
 
Terrific pickup on a very underrated unique game. I used to get mesmerized by the attract mode as a kid. Absolutely Beautiful condition...that's the nicest condition Qix i've seen and havent seen many for sale. Congrats man Taito cabs are awesome :)

Why do I think this means me? I suddenly remembered, I'm busy every time you are free for at least the next forever.

Oh, congrats on the game. :)

So you're saying there's a chance you're available? :D

You, not you specifically, anyone really! TOK, come visit, LOL!!!!

Actually I thought about having my dad help me, but he had a double hernia operation 2 weeks ago. Then there's that pesky quadruple bypass he had.

My father-in-law may stop by today. We'll see what happens.

This one is a bugger because of the base. You can't get the handtruck to catch the base so I am not sure if we can use it (the handtruck). I may need an experienced game mover to help with this one. Todd, do you know any? ;)

Great game. One of my faves. I have a cabaret and play the hell out of it.

Just happened to catch the link to this in the original For Sale thread... I'll give you a hand one night this coming week if you still need it.

My Qix experience is the same as Schulsers... It didn't really appeal to me when it was in the arcades. I always went for the space/shooting games. Started playing in MAME and fell in love with it. Great game that is maddeningly difficult but keeps you coming back.
