Thanks guys... I sold off many of my games.  But this one... I really really love.  In fact I think most of all the early games that use the translucent mirror pretty much rock!

I think I'll hold on to this one forever unless someone wants to cough up 2K for it.

I guess things change? That is one sweet looking machine, but to rich for my blood! I'd love your APB though, is it for sale?

Yeah things change.  If someone is looking to build a pristine collection of games... then this would be one for that... it is certainly not priced for the casual collector.

APB was sold last year.... and so was my Berzerk.

Yeah, no offense, it's a super sweet restoration job, well worth the money, I just don't have it right now...

Unless you would consider a trade +cash?

You do a great job on them them by the way, ever consider doing it for someone if they paid you?

Either way, here's a free bump for your sale, good luck!

Absolutely no offense taken whatsoever... I don't really expect much interest on this     I'm not considering trades at the moment

As far as doing this for someone as a commission type thing... I'm just not able to dedicate that much of my 'spare' time anymore of these types of projects.

Thanks for the compliments.

Knocking off 6 bills... price is now $1200.00

Wow. Well worth the effort you put into it. That looks BETTER than new. Good luck with your sale.

Thanks man!  I think it's priced VERY reasonable now.

Is shipping an option?

I can wrap it and strap a protective base on it (sort of a palette to keep the hand trucks from damaging it).  Pickup and shipping would need to be arranged by the buyer.

Beautiful work man, I really wish I could afford it.  Very sorry that situations have changed and you feel the need to sell it.

Oh thanks it's not a sorry situation... Ive thoroughly enjoyed it and I'm happy to sell it to anyone who appreciates it for what it is. 

I've been in this hobby for 6+ years and have come to the conclusion I love the restoration aspect of the hobby and don't really have the desire to amass a collection of pristinely restored games. 

I'd rather pass them on and let them be enjoyed by as many as possible.

Glad to hear that!  During this recession I've seen collectors in general have to liquidate items I know they cherish just to make ends meet, and I hate to see that. 

Wish I had more room for stuff, and more cash to buy stuff with...      Not that I have a small house, we have a fairly good amount of space, but I wish I had more storage space and at least a 3-car garage so I could use one bay for a permanent workspace.  In the basement I've currently got an entertainment center, poker table and a mame cab...  I think I could eventually squeeze in a virtual pinball table one day but probably not any more cabinets after that...
