Looky...Looky what I picked up today off of CL! What a score!
How many of you in the New York Tri-State Area were trying to nab this deal off of NY's CL?
1980 Midway full-size Pac Man Arcade Game, excellent working condition - $200 (White Plains)
This classic Pac Man arcade game works like new, and is priced to sell by September 30. Check ebay to see the same condition unit selling for over $400, plus $375 shipping. Included free in the sale is a Taito copy of SPACE INVADERS, the first electronic Arcade Video Game of the era - This unit stopped working about fifteen years ago, but I got my use out of it in the 80s. Call 914-629-1188 to come to White Plains to see these two classic machines and play some Pac Man on the real original. I'm sure you will find these units exactly as described, so bring your truck!
Now, check this out. There was about 6 people ahead of me. 1 Guy from NJ bailed on the guy. My buddy Dan and I worked this guy real good to give up the goods. I actually went on this road trip with VANMAN. We got there and the place was in shambles. The guy was moving. We had to move a refrigerator just to get the games out of the door and remove a door handle on his back door. It was a tight squeeze but we managed to get the games out with little or no scuff marks on the cabs. When the cabs were moved, there was mouse shit surrounding the games so I was concerned. Later in my driveway, I did not see any holes on the bottom of either cabs whatsoever! So off into my garage they went. Both are in top notch condition. I rate both at least an 8. I mean the control panels were pristine as well as the bezels and marquees. The owner had told me he purchased them used back in the mid eighties. They were moved into his house and never left all these years until now. When we arrived, he had told me about 20 people wanted the pair!
My original plan was to keep the pac-man and flip the space invaders. Even though the space invaders does not operate at the moment, the cabinet is unreal. It looks like it was imported right from Japan. On the control panel is no english. All Japanese!
This has been a great month! First my $50 defender which I got working and now these two. UNREAL. Oh, I paid the guy $200 happliy. Did someone say, "CAN YOU BUY THAT $100 CAB???"
Enjoy the pics!
