Possible Gauntlet Legends purchase - questin on price and its only problem
Really want a Gauntlet 1 or 2, but know I like Legends from what I have seen. Haven't actually played it, but like the videos and plan on trying it first.
So the machine is close and in excellent condition. It will be my first vid and I know they aren't exactly top shelf machines, but for a first vid it sounds perfect for me. He is asking $550 and the only issue is:
Is this something regularly going bad? Is this a simple fix like replacing board, etc?
Any opinions you can suggest are appreciated. I have basic skills and multimeter usage but never did cap replacements, solder/unsolder chips or similar and just don't want to buy a machine I can't easily fix myself and just enjoy.

The only issue is the satellite board that adjusts the screen, the width adjustment doesnt work. The image is slightly oversized but its an easy fix if you know anything about working on machines.
