I was watching this sorta newer show on History Channel called Pawn Stars - basically a reality show based on a Pawn Shop. Anyhow I'm sure if you see the episode it would get some discussion here - the shop bought it non-working for $175, which seems a bit much for a non-working game. They send it to a shop, and the shop removed a Ms Pac swapover and put it back to Pac Man, and replaced the top art with repro. Charged the Pawn shop $350 to do that. They're into it for $525 now and the shop tells them its worth $1000. Maybe retail and a full restore but eh...I dunno.

I have seen some in that or worse shape go for $1000 or more. Seems reasonable for the cocktail version - lots of people want that cabinet.
