Hey guys, found a 2 nice machines at a garage sale. Sinistar and Tempest.
Whats a fair price for these? Both in good condition.
 
fair price? decent, working condition? about $400 to $600 each. if nice could be more.

prices not valid in Texas or California where everything seems to be overly plentiful and sell for obscenely cheap.

For $800 I would jump on them.

SO true. Everytime somebody says "depends on location" it basically means this.
 
Source the parts on Tempest and you'll know why they sell for more. Tempest should always be more than Sini.
 
If they are in good shape, great deal on sinistar and good deal on tempest.

Just keep in mind tempest will break. Board and monitor problems that will not be easy to fix.
 
Update: Passed on the machines. Picking up a Star Wars Trilogy in the morning. Wife made me decide between them!
There was also, another member on here from Indiana interested in them. I believe he passed on them as well. If any one wants the sellers info.
you can p.m me.
 
Where is this at? I want a sinistar really badly and they rarely come up for sale in good condition. I would not have passed up the Sinistar.

It was probably yelling at you RUN RUN RUN HA HA HA when you were walking out of the drive way.

Not in the case of Ms. Pacs... It took a year to finally find one that's $100 and my dad accepts.

That's cause $100 is insanely cheap for a working Pac. I did however get a broken pack (board) for $150...
