"Q-BERT - Excellent Condition, Working, Needs one coin mech.
CENTIPEDE - Near Mint. Completely refurbished with new trackball and panel.
MS. PAC-MAN - Mint - Needs new monitor.
SUPER PAC-MAN - Mint - Completely refurbished.
BURGERTIME - Excellent - Needs ballast replaced in marquee.

Each game is $2,500 each. If interested in buying the entire lot, make an offer."
The ad title says $2500 so I figured it'd be the price of multiple games but nope! So I guess $10,000 for all 5 would be a good offer for this guy?:eek:
I'm not sure if these games sold for that much when they were brand new in 1980's currency (worth much more than now)!

I would say that not having a Coin Mech would drop the value of the game by at least $2,200.
 
check this one out:
Here are the games:

1994 Edition of Primal Rage. Awesome condition

1983 Edition of Track N' Field. Decent condition.

Both games run EXCELLENT!!! Come over and test before purchase.

Retail Value at this point is around $1200 a piece!!

LOL that is priceless. Its 'Mint' but needs a new CRT.

If that is his definition of Mint, then I wonder what he'd call it if he installed a new monitor? NIB? lol

Well, you could go with the various levels of MINT..
