I'm curious what one of these would go for, it's the complete pcb, the marquee, and a fully populated vs control panel.
 
Alright, if everything works out I might pick one up locally then tonight. If I get it those parts should be for sale shortly. I just want the cab for a dk jr project.
 
I agree, the daughtercard alone fetches around $120-150. Complete PCB, maybe $150-180. Marquee and CP probably worth about $100 shipped together.

I'm gonna call some guys about a dual vs and one side is TKO boxing which I instantly want to swap out. If you wana sell the roms, daughterboard, cpu and ppu I might be intrested if I like these gys cab.

Yeah 150 is about the average for a complete PCB. I've been hunting for one of those Castlevania PCB's for a while now.
 
Sounds about right. I recently snagged a BIT on eBay for $150 or close to it (motherboard & daughtercard). I considered that a good deal. Tricky to find the daughtercard alone for less than $150

I think I sold my last daughtercard for $150 also. Bonus is that I found another one last night in my stash!

Yeah, if you can get the machine for a good price, do it. You should have no problem recouping some money. Do you have the other parts for your project already?
 
I haven't picked up any of the parts yet, it's more of giving myself something to do work on this winter. I assume I'll need a harness from bob Roberts, grab the repro control panel from mikesarcade. Then side art, bezel and marquee.
 
I don't know where the $150 for the daughter card alone echo is coming from. Last spring, I listed mine on a working Vs. pcb with Super Mario Bros chips on the other side (minus SMB ppu) at $150 shipped and it sat on KLOV with no interest for a week. I accepted the lone offer of $125 shipped.

PCB complete with SMB and Castlevania for only $125 shipped? Maybe everyone was sleeping or had no interest in Vs. at that moment in time, but that is a complete and total steal for whoever bought it from you.

EDIT: Well I'll be... http://forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=232968 I can tell you I didn't see this post as I was on/off the forums last year, but yeah, that was a heck of a deal. Even board #2 where you had SMB/Excitebike for $90 was a great deal.

SMB alone usually goes for about 50-60$ that is without the PCB.

I sold my Vs. Castlevania daughterboard for, I think, 110$ shipped. They do seem to gravitate more towards the 120-150$ range for just the daughterboard.

Thats the one. I must have had bad timing. Oh well!
 
Vs. stuff varies WIDELY at auction. It seems to get hot and cold depending on the week/month (unless you're talking about Ladies Golf or something).
