Mrs Pacman cabinet worth?
« on: October 25, 2017, 09:58:25 am »
I just found this cabinet online. An old Mrs Pacman. Unfortunately the screen doesn't work anymore. What would be a reasonable price for this?

How much are they going to pay you to take it?

I see 2 different cabs; a gambling machine and a homemade tabletop.
Neither is Ms. Pacman.  ???

They are worth about as much as the materials it would take to build them.

Glad you saw this also -was thinking maybe I was seeing things - but the 2 pics are of different machines and neither is Ms. Pacman

Agreed, the first is a bootleg full-sized cabinet (not a Midway cab) but the second is bartop with 25th anniversary pac-man custom graphics.

Wow, now I see as well. Even the joysticks are different if you look (not even that) closely. Looks like a scam or something then. I saw Pacman and heard 100 euro, so I thought profit. But nevermind then...  :laugh2:

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

Dudes, it's 100 freaking Euros.  That's only $120 in real money.  What's the worst that's gonna happen?

If prior experience serves as an indicator, it's either a western union scam or some seller that grabbed a couple "close enough" pics off the internet for their ad.

The secret is to relax and breath deeply.  Don't be a coward.
