Is a Final Fight board really worth this much?

Is a Final Fight board really worth this much, or are these guys just stupid?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=13718&item=6189833481&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW

I would have figured Final Fight to be a $20 board.

I've got a working Final Fight board, too. I also just traded one at a value of about $30. Maybe I got hosed on that deal. I don't know. Oh well, I've still got one left. By the looks of things, though, it might be worth more on its own than in a machine!

If I had one, I'd eBay it...  You could turn around and buy a much better game board (or two) with the cash.

Well since this is worth some cash then does anyone want to trade a PCB for my Final Fight PCB?  ;)

See? This is exactly my point! It's got to be one of the most common games out there. They shuold be "a dime a dozen", right?

I guess I shouldn't complain if my stuff is worth more than I realized.

I likely will. Too bad Golden Axes aren't worth more. I've got a few of those. Ditto on Aero Fighters.

How much would you want for one of those working Golden Axe Boards??  ;D

Well I just pulled one out today and it didn't look JAMMA compatible by the edge connector. I'll have to check.

Right. I'm just saying I don't think I have the adaptor. Someone would have to buy/make one if they wanted one of these boards. I'll have to check..

I just bought the final fight kit on ebay, the one with the board, marqee, side art, manual, and monitor bezel for $185! did I spend 2 much? I really wanted this game with all the stuff though.

If you bought everything seperately it would probably work out to more than that, so you did ok.

Final Fight boards are worth more than Final Fight machines with bad monitors.

Final Fight KITS are worth more than working machines.

Game is super popular, lots of people want one, lots of people get their first JAMMA cab SOMEWHERE and then go compete for those boards and kits on ebay and then pay way too much.

There are a few other games like that, Ghouls n Ghosts, Ghosts n Goblins, some of the other 86-89 era titles as well.
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.
