Looking to add 2 Arcade Machines to Rusty Quarters, Minneapolis, MN

Hi, this is Sage from Rusty Quarters Retro Arcade & Museum. We're in the market right now to purchase a couple of machines for the arcade... but been having trouble finding anything local.

Even though mint games are nice, we're looking for games in the price range of $300-$475 (cash. Delivery would be awesome), in 70%-90% Cosmetic Condition with no problems (especailly with coin mechs). Since it's the wife and I running the arcade for 10+ Hours a day, I don't have time to repair a new addtion to RQ, so please no offeres for a "nice machine with only a broken/loose _____... it's an easy fix!". Between helping customers, fixing coin mechs, and daily repairs, I just don't want to add any new repairs to the list. I need machines that I can put on the floor the second I get them. I hope you guys understand.


Here's a list of what customers have been asking for:
Arkanoid
Battlezone
Berzerk
Bust a Move
Commando
Congo Bongo
Donkey Kong 3
Double Dragon
Gauntlet II
Galaxian
Ghost'n Goblins
Gorf
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
Mappy
Missile Command
Mortal Kombat (Any Version)
Mr. DO!
Moon Patrol
Paperboy
Pole Position II
Popeye
Puzzle Fighter II
Rai Den (I or II)
R-Type (I or II)
Sinistar
Super Cobra
Super Puzzle Fighter II
Tapper
Tekken (4 or 5)
Terminator 2: Judgement Day
Xenophobe
Zaxxon
Zoo Keeper

Fighting games, Hockey Games, 3-4 player games. Please no NBA, NFL, or Golf games. No Cocktail or mames. 2-4 game Neo Geo's are ok.

Please feel free to make offers for machines other than our list, but please no offers for $700-$1200 machines. Just tring our best to find 2 machines this month in reasonable shape and hoping not to spend more that $800-$900.
 
Sage... I told you I have a very nice, 100% working Gauntlet II with working mechs and locks included for $450

If you want it, say so. I have a trailer tonight and tomorrow and am willing to bring it to you.

You have my number... text me or call me.
 
I thought it was a buddy's gauntlet. I was talking to a guy that you know about. Didn't seem like a good deal.

we just checked the answering machine and thanks for the offers but most were offers for Sports games or games with damaged power supplies, shorted out joysticks, etc., which we have mentioned in our first post, we do not want.
 
Gauntlet II

I would say take that game as it is a 4 player quarter sucker. Everything I picked up from him was well under valued, and nice. I hope you are open when I get down there to see Van Halen in May. Its a bit of a road trip so I want to get in some vid or pin time with a few beers.

alejandromad and I have talked. A buddy of his has the machine and the deal is no go (To many issues with the machine).

Still looking for 2 machines for sale. Please check RQ WANT LIST

Pics of both games here: http://s1142.photobucket.com/profile/gorfmaster/uploads

MP has a Willis cpo, and a smoked plexi (I've been waiting on the repros). They both come with locks and keys, coin buckets, coin mechs. I can get a buddy to help me deliver them to you so you don't have to come down here.

Both are in decent shape, some battle scars. Nothing terrible. They work 100%.
 
send me some pics or post them here.
