"Works Great" he says. Seriously WTF? are the sides painted in snot? Even a clueless op/citizen/retired circus clown can tell that this item seems less than up to par for anyone's tastes. This is why CL sucks.

C'mon man, that is the uber rare (some might even say mythical) amber sided DK. I have prayed to Xanthus on Male Ponytail Appreciation Day every year of my adult life for a sighting of one.

You Phet, as Xanthus' appointed messenger, have fullfilled my heart's greatest desire and I can now enter the 6th dimension...

How about this one? http://stockton.craigslist.org/vgm/2227210942.html It's worth 127 million, but I'm only asking 2.

That's Phlem color not Snot, Snot has a greener tint.

Well at least something good came out of it.

You know, what bothers me is these guys will rush to ebay to use it as a 'price guide' but never do a simple picture search to see what a dedicated machine is *supposed* to look like. The machine in question was obviously finger-painted, which I agree ups the value some, but a cool G? *sigh*

"It has been estimated to be worth roughly $5000" lol

He doesn't mention anything about the condition of the cab...so as long as it works great, his ad isn't lying

"It has been estimated to be worth roughly $5000" lol

I think he accidentally added a zero.

 

[alejandromad]

he says "WORKS great"... not "LOOKS great".
One is a possibility (although, admittedly, the odds are against it), the other is a Big Old LIE!

Thing is, I don't think he knows or cares about the condition of the cab, which is what bothers me a bit. It looks like shit, is clearly been altered in a bad way, which in a normal person's mind means the value decreases. If he took in to consideration the condition of the cab BEFORE setting a price, what would he ask if it was actually in nice shape? This isn't a sour grapes bitch about the guy's price because I want the game (I don't), it's just a WTF query into the minds of CL sellers. I am also trying to figure out if he finger painted the sides of an original red cabinet, or painted the front of a beat up orange cabinet red.

I'd say that's a Radarscope conversion. 7 speaker holes.

What the hell is an arcade gaming production?

Is that anything like a Filmways presentation?

I love it!

Nobody get excited. NOT a red cab, and never was. Note the blue paint showing through the "snot" orange sides. Which is also approximately at the corner points of a no-longer-present VS Unisystem sideart sticker.

Someone probably realized that DK artwork is clearly designed for a red cabinet and painted the front (or probably the entire thing) before someone (else?) puked out that orange on the sides.

Sorry for the thread hijack, but frankly I'm too lazy to start another thread. But this one made me chuckle.

$2K for a pac - but that's not all! It's been looked over by a 'mechanic.'

I sure hope he rotated the tires on it.
