Like I have said many times before, expect to hang onto it for a long time. I bought mine for 125, spent a good $50 in parts, and still had a hard time finding a buyer that would pay $350. Centipedes are a fun cult icon, but certainly not the most rare or desirable.
Not all of us buy games with the mindset that we are gonna turn around and sell them 2 weeks later. That's your first mistake. I have wanted one of these machines for a while, but finally settled on a Millipede cocktail. I have seen them for sale in the $250-600 range around here, over the course of 4-5 years. I have had chances to buy 3 of them in the $350-400 range, but something always came up that prevented me from doing so.

It is a popular classic... that they just happened to make a whole bunch of and people like the UR for the side art over the cabaret.Thats true. This happened to be one of the games I bought with the intent to flip and sell, because I already had my full size. However, thats when I realized that the market for Centipede wasnt very high.
I'm in the process of restoring it into minty shape. I also took a little different route and sanded/primed the sides, painted it white and will be applying the repro side art that just arrived. In the end, it'll be a mini upright. I'm excited![]()
I'll post pictures once it's done, along with the frog-green Frogger I'm finishing up.
