Is this a decent deal...?

Hey, what would be the price range for one of these? I used to play one a lot and accidentally bumped into one in the wild. It's the ticket version, and it seems to run well... unfortunately the sound was turned all the way down so there may be something wrong with the audio board. This is the American version, trying to decide if it's worth what 's being asked of one. Can't find the flyer but it's the short little redemption game where you shoot ping pong balls into the little animatronic Godzilla's mouth to "kill" him. Thanks

we had one back in 99 or 2000. We put it up on ebay with an awesome description and picture layout (my biz partner was great at photoshop) and it got 700 or 800. It went to a Godzilla collector. That was back in the good'ol days.
$100 - $200 seems right for something AS IS.
 
Hmm... he's asking 900 for it. I've seen/played it in person and it's absolutely mint aside from the fact I'm not sure if the sound has an issue or not (it was set to mute when I played it). It functions very well, the ball doesn't go all the way if you hammer it nonstop but that's an issue with all of them (and was with the brand new one I played way back when) since it's not meant to operate that way. The balls are all original and it MAY come with the kit to convert it to a capsule dispensing machine. Is that a decent deal or not? (I'm a Godzilla collector aside from being an arcade collector, so I'm curious now to know if I know the guy with the one you sold xD)

Are these rare? I've only seen 3 before (one I played in the 90s, one a KLOVer sold on eBay, and this one)... anybody know where people get these? Anyone have one for sale? Thanks
 
Bump... not looking for an expert analysis on past sales or anything, just wondering if this is a decent deal or not...
 
I would say its pretty rare. Way too hard to say its value. Your not likely to find another one. Any chance you could find something he would want to trade it for?

I think $900 is high. But if you can afford it, then go for it. Even if you could find another, figure $300 to ship it.. Plus there is some value in having played this one. you know what your getting..

You're right... I can't afford it at this very moment because I blew all my disposable income on my Neo Geo pickup (only to find a Godzilla Wars Jr. ON THAT SAME TRIP, oh, the irony!), but he says he isn't wanting to sell it at this time anyway. Basically, I'd be able to get it if I paid list price, but it's making enough money that he isn't eager to let it go and it hasn't gone up for public sale. Unless I see another one go up closer I'll probably go for it in the end though. Thanks for the input!
