I would like to ask for the community's advice. I have purchased 70+ stand up dedicated arcade machines in various stages of disrepair.
There are several classic machines (Wizard of Wor, Gorf, Tron, Dig Dug, Pac-Man, Defender, etc). I would like to unload these quickly, would it be more beneficial
for me to restore the true classics or to sell everything as parts machines? Thanks Everyone,
 
unless you have something truly rare in there I would think you would do better off just selling as is. Restoring can take a lot of time and money. Especially if you have a lot of games that need attention.
 
Get what you can up and running and sell them. Then sell the rest as projects. It will not be financially effective for you to restore them and make your money back. If they are not games you want to keep, there are plenty of guys out there who will take them off of your hands.
 
well if you were a hardcore collector you would at least consider keeping and restoring some right????

from a fat wallet standpoint, your prolly better off selling them as is. Restoring games is a labor or love, not profit...


but please dont smash some of these just to make a buck.. if they could be saved, please pass them along at a FAIR reasonable price to someone who can.
