Just wanted to see what the realistic going price for a nice Tempest Cabaret is currently? My guess is $1,500 - $2,000 but wanted to get a better consensus. It's a game on my current wants list. Thanks, Ryan
 
Seems to agree with the "2023" Exidy Guide ...... though personally, I've always considered the cabaret to be worth more (if working / excellent condition etc).

Tempest - with or without Tempest Tubes. Dedicated $1500-$2500+-. Cocktail table $1800-$3000. Cabaret $1500-$1800+-

VAG has the cabaret selling between $1650 and $2500 with an average of $1950. So that sounds about right, IMHO.

i would personally only buy 1 with a lot of refresh/"bulletproofing" work done on the monitor, controls, PCB, and moisture free cabinet...but i would expect to pay $2,000+ for such a piece
 
Paid 1500 in Nov for this one. I think it was a great price tho.

Oh wow, Exidy finally got an update. Was wondering if it had been abandoned or not.

Yep, yet another Post-Christmas Miracle. :)
PRICE GUIDE UPDATED 1/18/2023

And some disclaimers ->
** This update corrected some errors and is preparing for a new bigger update.
** It has come to my attention that my price guide has been copied and posted on other sites, remember the real price guide is only located at www.arcade-classics.com
 
I remember not being able to sell my spotless perfect condition Tempest cabaret for years. Finally unloaded it for $550 like 15 years ago. Luckily for me a fellow KLOV member remembered me when he sold his mint cabaret for $800. I play it regularly and it will be with me until the bitter end. lol. I've seen them in my area non-working/project 800-1000 and working 1200-1800.
