Folks...throw out some pricing for the following in your opinion...

Stern Scramble - Spaceman side art - Cab 7.5-8/10, bezel 9.5/10, marquee 9.5/10, CPO 6/10. WORKS but needs an Electrohome G07 Cap Kit.

Atari Asteroids - Cab 7.5/10, bezel 8.5/10, marquee 9.5/10, CPO 8/10. WORKS... seems to have a slight wiggle in the monitor...something a cap kit would likely rectify.

Atari Centipede - Cab 8/10, bezel 9.5/10, marquee 9.5/10, CPO 6/10. WORKS... also could stand to use a Cap Kit on the monitor but it's not terrible by any stretch. Side art is in good condition (8/10 or better).

Jr. Pac Man - This is a full artwork conversion in a Ms. Pac cab... side art is in 7/10 condition with Jr. Pac sticker over Ms. Pac title... has front Jr. Pac artwork, has nice Jr. Pac CPO and beautiful Jr. Pac Bezel and Marquee. Running a 48-in-1 w/JAMMAGAMES converter board. Monitor is in good condition...but as with the rest, could likely stand to use a cap kit eventually.

Lets start there. Looking for ebay prices and Idaho price opinions.

I'll start... tell me how off I am:

Scramble - $400
Asteroids - $400
Centipede - $400
Jr. Pac Man - $500

i am serious, but i would imagine the shipping price would be twice that amount, and then theres toll... :(


Welp, do the leg work... if it's something that you could swing, hit me up. If not, I certainly understand.

I'll happily shrink-wrap each unit for you prior to pickup as well.
 
If you are just doing Craigslist and/or trading journal, just list them all at $500 each. Interested parties will either pay your asking price, or talk you down to your $400 estimate to feel better about themselves.
 
My only worry about that is, for example, there is a local old fart who's had a Centipede listed for $500 for about 4 months straight now...

He's not come down a cent... and it's still there.
 
how can you not know how much these are worth by now?

I have an idea... just looking to get opinions from others. Do you have any opinions on the prices oh brother Yaggy? Bust `em out.

EDIT: Plus it sort of publicizes that I have or will have these cabs to sell in very short order. SO THERE! :D
 
Here are my thoughts - based on a price that would sell in my local market (shipping these days is out of the question on "common" games)

Scramble - $250
Asteroids - $300
Centipede - $350
Jr. Pac Man - $300

More if you would fix the little problems like cap kits....most home buyers cannot do this.
 
At those prices....an RLEVIN you will never be. :D

I still think you're back on the wacky-tobaccy for not recouping ALL of your investment from Galaga, Ms. Pac,and DK. If you price these cabs similarly, you shouldn't have a problem selling them.

My recommendation, list them as a lot on CL for a combined amount you can live with. Selling them separately probably wouldn't yield much more money, but it would cause you more work.

I'd say list all four for 1500.00 and call it a day.

Here is what I think you can expect to get...

Scramble $200 to $250
Asteroids $300 to $350
Centipede $300 to $350 (Jow's Millipede with multi isn't selling at $350)
Jr. Pac Man no idea...

I wish this were not so.
 
If you were in Oregon, it would be $750 firm each....

I am still trying to figure out why there are so many games over there in Idaho.

If I could work a deal for multiple units, it may be worth it for me to deliver...or meet half way. Any interest?

If I got even $600 per cab, it would be worth it to bring 3 or 4 out to Oregon....

Hell, if cabs are that expensive there, someone buy two from me for $800 then have them shipped for $350 for a total of $1150 for two or $575 per cab!

Well, I am not saying that they actually get that for them, but they sure usually start pretty high around here. I have been watching this Track and Field for awhile (a personal grail): http://portland.craigslist.org/clc/clt/1289702434.html
It started off at $1200....

Here is a Centipede for ya: http://portland.craigslist.org/clc/tag/1288227810.html

Personally, I think you are pretty good on your prices. It all depends on how quickly you want the space back in you garage. All in all, you are getting a pretty good return on your investment. That was a sweet deal you got. Too bad there wasn't any keepers in the deal for you.

I am considering keeping the Scramble... it's in good shape and the look of the cab is nice. I am also likely going to keep the Pac Plus... I just got a Pac CPO for it, the cab is in good shape, and I'll be installing a multi-pac of some sort in it. The last cab I will likely keep is the 25" SFII cab... I need a JAMMA cab and it's a good one.

Yes this looks about right.

Pac Jr. is a wild card but I think it is still in the $300-$350 range. Whats the word on that Stargate?
