I have a working Zaccaria The Invaders cab in decent shape. The bottom was replaced with a Taito base from the guy making them on klov. Its a bit short on the rear but is fine. Artwork is nice, would rate a b-. Monitor has slight blooming. Just curious what the thoughts are on a price for this machine since I am considering selling it.

$25 and you can drop it off next time you drive by. :D

SI clones are hard to pinpoint. SI hardly gets any respect as it is. I know cocktail clones get no love at all, I gave one to Raikus that worked except for sound and had a good backstory and history too. He was the only person who even showed interest and I was asking $100 so when I was up that way I took it with me and just gave it to him.

I think it should be part of your amazing collection, nice looking cab. Does that one have a mirror for the 3D effect like a Midway?
 
It's not strictly a clone but another version of SI by the famous Italian Zaccaria cab builders. This version is written on completly different hardware (s2650) and is nicer artwork than a Taito SI upright.

These must be very rare in the US, and yes they use mirror against a moon backdrop.

Fully working (with all sounds present) it has to be worth at least $350-$400?

I personally think it should be worth more than that but you are lucky to get that for a mint Midway for some reason and most people won't even look at others. I love SI and it deserves respect! :)

Agreed man, never really appreciated SI until I got my cabinet, now I play the everloving crap out of it.

Anywhp, that invaders cab is pretty nice, and I dont think $350 is too far off the mark. Looks good and as long as the bloom isn't outrageous whoever snatches that up won't mind it
 
The bloom is not horrible at all. I never got around to doing anything to this game it just fires up and works and I have so many other games that are above this on the priority list. I would let it go for $350 but it sucks because I paid way more before the economy took a dump. It has spent most of its time in storage and has recently been moved in the house. I am out of room downstairs and I have an offroad and spy hunter that I need to fit downstairs so unfortunately this is the odd man out.

Thanks for all the input guys and thanks for the kind words on my collection Rob. I will be working in the arcade Saturday and Sunday Rob, stop by if you are looking for something to do. :)

I will try the for sale section here first. I really, really hate cl buyers. You go through 10 flakes to find one person with real interest. At least if I did post it there the whole rarity thing would be true for once. ;)
 
If you put it on CL you also have to add "I know what this game is worth! No Lowballers! I would rather burn it first!"

Wish I could stop by this weekend but I have to work and am trying to get over a cold.
