All work....pics on ebay under gametimevault

Cosmic Avenger -$250,
Spy Hunter Cockpit-$300
Vanguard-$300

I still can't believe I actually have the Spy Hunter Cockpit....
 
Damn, I want that cosmic avenger, if shipping wouldnt kill me Id buy that, free bump..
 
If it's complete and solid, particularly if it has the panning ssio board, it is a great price in my book. Originally I thought it was listed a bit high. Guys, keep in mind that Rich will have full inkjet sideart available at some point soon and already has the floor mat art. In fact I have no idea why it's not already released because it's gotta be about 95% done (he used mine as a reference). It might have been released by now if I kept bugging him about it but I just haven't been ready to start on that project yet.

Fizgig, you're looking down at the back of the seat, and that piece of wood sitting there is simply the kick panel below the artwork. I don't know why it's off in the pic but assuming the cab is solid it just needs to be reinstalled. But yeah, a good set of pics would probably help a bit. It seems like the OP didn't want to take the time to move it out to where he could get better ones. I don't really understand why you wouldn't go to a bit more effort when selling a game but I hope this goes to a big SH fan. I sure LOVE my cockpit.
 
Sorry, not sure what i'm looking at in this pic. And this comment "The monitor door is almost smashed in half" seems to fit my original thought.

Maybe a new set of pictures would help? I'm in the market for one, but the pictures just don't look good at all.

I mean, it's just a partially beat up back door...if a back door is worth an extra $500 to you, lol....that is why the price is what it is so again, I don't understand the concern if it is replaceable....and I am making it sound worse than it is....$300 is a joke for this game especially considering it works and there is no water damage

It's stuck in storage, it's a pain to move, and like I said, it's priced to move, hence the lack of my effort and the cheap price and i am being serious about it...I don't see a point to going bananas trying to sell something at a giveaway price....I am sure if I part it out and make more money everyone will go off on me but I am trying to sell it complete. I'm also not trying to be an ass in these posts but when you have as little time as I do these days, this is the best i can do and unlike a lot of other people I will be responsive on things like this , but seriously, $300? I will part it out and get $500 if it does not sell and I really don't want to do that
 
Oh, that makes sense. I do think the price reflects the fact that the pics and info aren't as complete as someone might hope for. That's the basis for my comment on price. I think you could potentially get more if you were able to provide better pics and info (at least as far as an interested non-local buyer is concerned), or at least you should get more. But obviously maximizing your return isn't your primary concern (nothing wrong with that).

However, I think it's a little contradictory to say you would part it out to get more money because parting it out would be far more work than pulling it out and taking good pics. I'm guessing your comment is one of frustration more than a real "threat" to part it out though since you do really seem to want to sell it whole. And what a shame it would be if parting was the ultimate conclusion to this.

Let me tell you, if I hadn't already found a cockpit and I was anywhere within a few hours of you, I'd jump on this. I really can't believe you haven't found anyone semi-local to buy it yet.

Just out of curiosity, I see in the auction that you've had 9 offers. Since obviously you'd take $300 even though it's listed at $400, what kind of lowballs are they? Hard to believe that out of 9 offers not one is at least $300.

Believe me Dream, many of us would buy this thing sight unseen at that price. It just happens to be one of the furthest possible locations from me. Unless you want to bring it to the MGC this spring :)
 
A lot of those offers were people that changed their minds when they realized it was a very, VERY long drive. I always contact a person to make sure they are serious beforehand but for every 10 machines I sell, 4 people are non paying bidders and I have to relist them (even AFTER I talk to them and accept their offer). It's the number one thing I hate about eBay. They want it to be like Amazon, but Amazon requires customers to PAY for the item immediately, whereas ebay has options for that but people still run rampant over the system...
 
Nope, eBayer got it from me....now if I can just sell Vanguard and Cosmic Avenger!

I don't know what it is, I see all these guys sell things all over the country and in Tennessee it is extremely rough for me to sell anything here...takes way longer than it should

That Cosmic Avenger would be at my house if you were closer, but I am sure you have heard that a million times. Anyone making a road trip from Tenn to Michigan anytime soon :)
 
Spy Hunter has been sold (it has been paid for ;) )

I'm so glad you sold that thing.

I was contemplating another purchase. But room would defenitely be an issue with the cockpit.

But the Vanguard defenitely still has my interest.
 
Still willing to trade/sell these for whatever...I'll take $250 on each of the games at this point...they work and cabinets are in good shape..or I will take a Pleiades or something, lol
