I have a chance to get a Star Wars Racer tommorow in supposedly great condition. All except for the game plays blind. You can hear it power up and the buttons work and the game plays but the monitor does not come on. I have not had a chance to look at it yet, and the guy selling it hasnt had time to try and figure out what is wrong. So it could be something simple, or require raplacing the whole monitor. If that was the case is this still a good buy. He said it was a Wells Gardner not sure of the model number.
This is a single player cockpit Ill attach a pic from KLOV which is exactly what it looks like.
Please let me know what you think this thing is worth or how much it could cost to fix it..."worst case scenario." It looks fun but I have never seen it in an arcade before

Thanks,
Jeremy

This is a tough call. If the monitor is dead, you could be in for some trouble. It's a medium resolution and a big bastard at that. If it's the nice, big cab with the wrap around pod as you pictured, has all arts, controls, and guts, I would say tops $300 without a working monitor. Some guys here would say even lower than that, I'm sure. They tend to pop up more often than other stuff, and I see them on the bay quite often around $700 for fully working.
 
Thanks for the response. That was definately helpful and I just realized i wrote that whole thing and forgot to put a price. He is selling it for 150 Which sounds to me like a pretty good deal. i know that screen is pretty big thats why it worries me how much it might cost to replace. let me know what you think. Thanks
 
SO I'm assuming it looks good and has all controls? If so, yes $150 is a great price. Monitors are out there and the game is pretty cool.
 
i was just about to post about this game. i had no idea they made an arcade version! the N64 game was awesome. is this version any good? is there a stand up model?
