Are you looking for the original Gremlin version like this:

Or the modern DMD remake by CES like this:

The Gremlin version comes in two types, the black screen and the white screen. Either is extremely difficult to find in working condition with no screen cracks. That one on ebay was the first working one I've seen sold there in over 10 years of watching and ebay email notifications. I can't believe it sold for so little. I expected it to fetch well over $1,000.

The CES one, is way more common. I know of a bar in Chicago that still uses one. I've seen several at the Milwaukee auctions in the recent past. Always seem to go for right around $600 (plus 20% auction fees). There is one on Chicago Craigslist for $800 a while back. It didn't sell, but I have the sellers contact info.

I have a fully working CES one available for sale (probably $550?), but based on both our signatures, we'll never be able to make contact! I have a Gremlin too, but that's not for sale right now.

You might want to check out http://www.wallgames.com for more info too. They have a FS section. I think the last Gremlin one recorded sold there was $1,600.
