A buddy and I are going to be taking possession of a bunch of boards here pretty soon, and we were wondering about pricing these things for sale. I don't really like using E-Bay as a guide, as someone can grab a rare board for $10 because some idiot listed it obscurely or there were several to choose from at the time.

I do check places like QuarterArcade to see what those guys sell for, and usually undercut it by $10-20 or so, but we don't want to be giving some of the lesser titles away for nothing, either.

I figure a 100% working JAMMA board - no matter what the titles - should be worth at least $25, don't you?

Here's 6 that I know of that will be coming to us. Anyone got any ideas on current pricing for 100% WATW boards?

Donkey Kong Junior
Time Pilot
Kangaroo
Big Event Golf
Knuckle Bash
Street Fighter (I think it's the first one, not II)

Once we get a chance to go through them all, identify, and test them - we'll be posting them for sale....
 
Your logic is sound concerning pricing.
But there are a few jamma games that aren't worth $10 in my book.

Bottom of the 9th being one of them. I am sure other people will chime in.
 
Possibly. Still it has value as a JAMMA test board if nothing else....
 
I don't think big event golf, U.S. classic, or relief pitcher is worth much more than $10.

Edit big event isn't even jamma so with a jamma adapter with a trackball molex wired to it included with the pcb i don't think its worth much.

Yeah, some PCBs are better for parts....like Big Event Golf.....Way more the $10 worth of good parts on that board, but a hard sell as a whole for $10.

It wouldn't be a bad idea for the more obscure titles to use excellentcom or Fujita's pricelists.

That being said, if you have Fire Shark or Out Zone board, come to me first! :)
