Is that the Popeye Blkdog used to have in his collection? The credit button on the speaker grill looks familiar.

I'm not sure what a APB goes for but I can say that I paid $250 for my Popeye cocktail in similar condition. Is the APB worth $225 to you?

In general, I don't pay more than $100 for a non-working game (limited exceptions of course) and Popeyes go cheap all the time, it was not a popular game. His price sounds steep to me.
 
That's my old Popeye. My friend Dan is selling both.

I have a video of the Popeye here:

The Popeye has one of the best monitors I have ever seen. Great condition game with original art. Glass is a little scratched, not too bad.

BTW - he isn't making any money on this stuff. I sold him the cocktail for what I paid and he is pretty much doing the same.

A.P.B. $100

Dude, there are people who would pay $100 just for the seat alone. I will agree though, since its a med res game, a broken one could be pricey.

Anyway, an APB with a seat that works is a $300 game IMO.

If fully working, I completely agree. But it isn't and this reflects current reality of the market.
 
Who says it isn't working? Both games work. I have played the APB, there is nothing wrong with it. It used to be wodnad's here on KLOV.

Oh okay, so just the seat needs repair then? My mistake. I adjust my figure to $250 to $300, depending on what "needs repair" means. With that tidbit of information, I believe the $475 price is fair. I undervalue Popeye because I personally think the game blows.

I disagree. I only sold it because I got an upright and that fits better in "the row". :)

That cocktail is in fantastic condition. Very nice specimen with nice original artwork inserts.
 
The fact that it was at one time in "John's Arcade - the original Ninty™ Row" makes it worth at least $100 more than typical street value. :)

I can't fully speak for the APB, I don't know the repair history or ever worked on it. But, I can say that Popeye is perfect and works flawlessly. No issues at all. Very reliable machine.

My Ninty Row had a sack fulla balls and enough hair to weave a rug before your Ninty row even shit it's pants for the first time. 'Original' he says. Nothin' like rewriting history for the newbs.

This could be the funniest thing I have ever read on KLOV.
 
Your row was a fake and a fraud. Your heart was never in it. You sold that stuff faster than Jow sold his Punch-Out. Now you are collecting games with stars in the marquees. How sad is that? I collect games I love to play. :) And the word "Ninty™" wasn't commonly adapted until A.B. (after blkdog7). ;) :) :)

LOL! My "Ninty" row is only a baby. I hope he makes his forefathers proud.

Says the guy who doesn't even like Punch-Out. You only have one for the "look at me!" factor.

I had mine for almost 2 years non working, bitch. You know, longer than you have even been in this hobby.

Ohhhh. Sick burn.
