Just got hit with some major financial obligations. So I have to sell two of the three machines I still have.

Here is what I have:

Ms. Pacman
Donkey Kong
PC-10 (with SMB, SMB3, Dr Mario, TMNT II, Punch Out, Track and Field, Contra, Tecmo, Excite bike, goonies)

All of the machines are in fantastic shape. I might get away with just selling the DK, it is in mint condition with the high score kit. Could get close to $700 for it I think.

If you could only keep one, which one would it be?
 
playchoice 10 for sure is a keeper....hell its like having 10 games in one with more cart possibilities. Also since your avatar is the side art id asume you like it the best. id never sell my PC-10!
 
Donkey Kong is my first and last game. It will never leave. I'll sell them all before I sell the DK. Ms. Pac is a close second. But, that's just me. :)
 
If your Ms. Pac-Man has nice, original (not restored) side and front art with bright colors, I'd keep it, as those machines are pretty rare when they don't have fading. If it's at all faded like most Ms. Pacs, I'd sell it.
 
My GRAIL game is my Ms Pacman cocktail, so me personally I would keep that above all even though I have 2 PC10's and enjoy them immensely.

Given what you have I personally would sell EITHER the Ms Pacman or the DK (I suppose whatever fetches higher) and sell some of the carts from your PC10 to make up the difference if you're trying to hit $700. The TMNT2 typically sells over $100, and Dr. Mario gets $60-ish. Even if you have 1 Game in your PC10, and sell 1 other unit you still have "2 machines" and can pick up more carts later for the PC10 (and given your avatar I take it you're a PC10 fan). Unless you're hung up on the rare ones, carts seem readily available.

OK, as much as it pains me I think I have to go with the PC10. thanks everyone for the input. Going to see what I can do, hopefully I don't have to sell any of them.
