I had a question. I built three pacman style cabaret arcade cabinets out of 3/4" birch. I turned one into a pacman, the 2nd into a galaga tribute...both which I am keeping.
I built a third to sell locally as a multicade.
It's covered in black formica like this one and I had planned on putting in a 17" LCD and a 60-1 board with graphics like this one in the pic below.
So far I have estimated well over $300 - 330 in this project with all the parts, not including labor. Stuffs not cheap.
What could one expect to sell sell something like this one locally? Assuming the buyer isn't a "purist" and just wants something to put in a man-cave or kids room.
I'd like to make a few hundred profit for my labor in building one of these...so I would have sell for at least $500. Trying to decide if I should cut my losses or keep pushing forward on this.
