If the outside is as nice as you claim and the monitor isn;t pac burned to hell $500 isn't a bad price at all. Most likely you'll find the only thing wrong with it is a blown fuse and or the interlock switch is the culprit.
The pac series is a real bitch to restore - that alone is worth thinking about.
 
might be a bit high in the current market considering you do not know anything about the condition (or existence) of the electronics. if the artwork is pretty darn nice, the bezel and marquee neither faded nor peeling, the monitor with low to medium burn, i'd be more inclined to offer $250 - $300. if i could open the back and at least verify that it is complete maybe $300-350. since Ms. Pacs are no longer selling in the $1k+ range, much more than that is too much.

of course, there will be those who say Ms. Pacs are a dime a dozen and you can get one just like it for $50 off of any street corner, so your mileage may vary.
 
You wont find any listed for under $500 in my town, Most are more if they are nice. I see them cheaper in the bigger cities, but not much!!

If its a solid machine and looks good, I dont think $500 is out of line!!
 
Condition dictates price
I am putting my ms pac together and I am in for over 1000 already, but boy is she beautiful!
Brand new stenciled cab, Brand spanking new monitor, Arcade shop multi board, 96 in 1 pac board 2 control panels, you get the idea,

Are you gonna keep it? if so spend the cash and don't regret it.
 
Well if everything works out im picking her up tomm .Ill let you know the price when the deal is done .i dont want to jinx it.Ill post pic when and if I get it.I also picked up a pac-man today that needs some wood work,adn some monitor burn, but has a pac man 3 board (whatever that means) but right know it has fast ms pac and plays like a champ for $150.Ill post pics tommorrow.Wish me luck
 
Well just picked her up ! Opened the door and the original manual was taped to the door and the original feet levelers were in the bottom.Ill take pics soon .Oh by the way $150.00!!!! SCORE!!!!!
