I'm Torn...
I'm torn. I picked up a Pole Position in the recent haul... non-working, of course. Just a cursory glance tells me the monitor works (white raster), boardset is getting power (at least one L.E.D. is on), but nothing. At all.
Now, I tried working with a Pole Position boardset once... it's not worth it.
It took me dropping my asking price to $75.00 to get someone out (finally) to pick up the last Pole Position...and that one WORKED (somewhat...there was graphical corruption in the roadway, sides, etc).
I hate to admit it guys... but I am thinking about parting this one out and, if no one wants it for FREE, dismantling the cab. I would offer it up FREE to anyone who wanted it for a few days of course...
Would doing such a thing generate negative arcade karma? Would it be worth it anyway? I need this thing gone and I know I won't be messing with it. I could actually use the monitor chassis to repair the Centipede I have waiting, so it would save a game on it's way out as well.
Opinions?
