It's like people are giving these things away. And I can't so no. It's driving me crazy and my wife is going to be mad tonight if I really bring these home.
What's with all the cheap games these days? Crap.

That Laguna racer is the only decent deal. It just isn't a game up my alley though.

They were cheap here for a while, but I think all of the resellers have picked them all up. Now cl just has overpriced stuff, and the sellers are pretty rude in the ad. I just looked for the first time in at least a month, and I probably won't look again for a while. It has been a while since I have bought anything locally.

Well after that $50 Asteroids that I put $200 and many hours into wouldn't sell for $250, I told myself that I was done with projects. But then before it even left I had already brought in the Crossbow and Black Widow and then right after that I got the Pin-Bot and I was already totally out of room before I got those.
Now I've got two more coming in. And I've got 20 teenagers who are supposed to be sleeping out there near the end of October. This is ungood.

Ha, the BW is a keeper my friends. Sorry! I could be convinced to sell the Pin-Bot possibly though. Although I like the idea of fixing up a pinball. I'm actually thinking about loaning working games to my friends just so I can have the storage. One guy has been pestering me about getting him a Tempest for a while now. He has room in his garage. Hmmmmm.
Black Widow is on my short list. I pick up my Gravitar tomorrow. I was thinking about getting a BW kit then i could switch between games
ok, what is wrong with the pinbot, and how much do you want for it? I don't really have room, and I probably can't afford it, and I don't have time to go get it, but I really want one of those.

I don't know...I haven't really thought about it. I have a thread about it if you want to read up on the issues I've found so far. Battery damage, missing a few bits and pieces. PM me if you think it over and want to consider it.
I guess now you know what's up with all the cheap games.
Sometimes having someone show up at your house and take a problem off your hands with no work on your part is a good thing.
i got a chance to pick up a tempest for $250.00 but he said it has "issues" its on CL wouldnt say what the issues were just invited me to come take a look at it,not sure what there worth? kinda new to the hobby.

Yeah, well as I predicted, my wife is pretty cheesed off at me right now. She's always been very supportive but I actually agree with her that this is pretty out of control. I need to clear some of this stuff out of here pretty quickly now.

The core market for these old games are middle aged men.
The values reflect declining interest.

Cheap games? Set your zip to 75002 and do a nearest first search on ebay. CL is a little better out here, but nothing worth getting. The auction this weekend is the best shot for a deal.
