Is the http://theboneyardpdflibrary.com/index.php website worth it?

Does anyone want to admit they paid the $30 to get artwork from it?

I know I am going to get a ton of hate replies to this thread because you guys hate how places like
http://theboneyardpdflibrary.com/index.php are charing $$$ for art work you can find for free
by Googling, but I'm just curious if anyone admits to using it and what they think about it
if all I want is high quality artwork and NOT manuals etc.

Why don't you pay the $30 and answer the question for us?

I don't honestly know anyone who has paid for it, so you'd be a trailblazer...

^ this -- since unless you pay the $30 annual fee upfront they do not allow you to view any hint of what specific items they actually have available - so no way to tell if they have a specific item you are looking for or what kind of quality any of the art actually is !

Answer would depend on the source of the artwork files and if it is Classic Arcade Grafix dump that a number of vendors picked up on back in the day. If you get access to that (and probably more), $30 doesn't sound like a bad price. Back when a number of us paid $50 just for the CAG files.

Of course, there are vendors who also provide printed artwork from that same CAG stash, so if you are looking for a particular piece of printed art, you may be better off elsewhere.

It's the arcade boneyard, I would expect that most of it is scraped from other sites.   I personally would never support the arcade boneyard, but that's just my 2 cents.

I've bought parts from him, he's fine.

The PDFs are probably the same ones that were passed around... 10? years ago as Cheffo mentioned earlier.  Those were pretty good quality.
