This has been in the Wichita, Kansas CL for a few weeks. He is gradually lowering the price. It's about 30 minutes south of me, so I went down and checked it out. The machine is sitting outside, and has been for a while. Cabinet is not salvageable.

The game is complete, but not working. It has a few smoked diodes on the power board, and the guy says (as usual) that it worked until recently, but I think it probably did. Would make a great parts game for an un-MAME-ing.

Alternately, if anyone has an empty Q-bert cab in great condition, I'm interested :D

I could use the guts, boards and all harness and CP. I have a cab here waiting. I would pay you good to strip and ship? Lmk if you could help.

a working qbert pcb can sell in that range. Hell the wiring harness can sell in that price range. It's a no brainer even if the cab is trashed. I'd grab it and either hold the parts until you get a cab or sell the parts.

I'm not really in the parting business, but I'll help out if no one is interested in picking up the whole thing. Just the price of the cab + packaging material and shipping, no additional is necessary. I would like to hold off until after the weekend to give someone a chance at the whole thing.

Pinfamous, I got your PM but JJ was a little ahead of you. Damn, you guys are fast.
 
Dang! How in the world did I miss this post earlier? Bummer, some day I will have my Qbert wiring harness!!
 
JJ - Are you planning to part out the stuff you don't need from this? I'd be interested to see what's leftover, although I particularly am interested in the coin door if it's salvagable.

I have the coin door. It was not in very good shape, and did not have the Gottlieb logo. Send me a PM if that doesn't scare you away.
