Just wondering what you guys would pay for a working Robotron - cabinet is in good shape.

Thanks.
 
A Robotron machine in decent shape will ALWAYS be worth more than your typical large scale production arcade game from that era. It has a huge following, does not seem to get "old" (so most people keep them) and many of them were converted back when Jamma conversions were the thing to do to an "old" machine. In fact, I have only seen a VERY small number of them available here in the South in the 20+ years that I have been collecting. Back in the mid '90's, I GAVE UP on finding one in decent shape, and ended up re-converting a cabinet from a "World Series Baseball" back to it's original configuration. Back then, reproduction parts were not available like they are today. I hand to build a wiring harness from scratch by looking at the original schematics. It took a while to do, but I STILL have the game in my collection 15 years later...
 
$600 woud be a fair price for that around my neck of the woods..

Snap it up!

Just $600, for such an awesome game. Ellin' hellin' yeah! :D

I'd probably need to sell a game off too buy one at that price though. :(
 
For every Robotron I've seen for sale I've probably seen 20 Star Wars games for sale. They just never seem to pop up around here. It's one of those games I'd love to own some day. I have no idea what a good price would be in California but if you want it you should just jump probably.
 
i would trade punch out for a robotron in a heart beat!

too bad for me .. im broke ass!!!!

Jump on it!

I bought a Robotron just last Sunday from a guy in Morgan Hill and I paid just that.

$600 is fair but not a steal.

How often do you see a Robotron come up on CL?

The cab on this one here is better than mine.
 
I am hoping a Robotron is worth the same as a NEO Geo 4slot with a 120 in 1. I want one, but I will have to trade for it since that much cash is out of the question right now.

If I had the money, I would consider doubling my current max for a game and paying $600 for it. I have never seen one for sale around here yet.

Jow, I wish i would have bought your Robotron instead of the Outrun! lol
