MS PACMAN Cocktail in very good condition...

[Sinner]

I have a friend who has an original MS PACMAN that he wants to sell me, but I'm not sure what it's worth...it's in very good condition, and has been modified with a switch to add coins...the game plays, but once it's been on for a while the screen goes a little weird and colours start showing up randomly, or they change (I'm not sure)...I'm going to see it next week, and I really don't want to give him too little money, but I also don't want to spend more than I have to...
What price range would be reasonable for this type of machine with a cabinet in good to very good condition and a questionable monitor or PCB??
Thank you,

Matt

I think one went at Starburst for $250 recently ... cocktail was in weak shape with burn and everybody was surprised that it went that cheap (expecting a buyback).

Cheers.

Thanks for the info guys..I went and took a look at the unit tonight...the cab itself is in great shape, but the monitor is pooched...he said it went all weird looking and he would shut it off, then after a while turn it back on, and it would work...then one day it went all weird again and went out...doesn't come on at all anymore...possibly something as simple as a cap kit?...
Anyway, when you hit the buttons and move the joysticks, the thing does make game sounds (with the exception of down on the joysticks, then it makes a rumbling noise)...I'm hoping it's in some sort of test mode...

I would have to fix the monitor, maybe something on the board...the glass has some scratches, but I'm hoping they will buff out...the coin door needs some work...new mechs and one of the metal covers for the coin slot...

The guy told me to make him an offer, but I have no idea what to say...is $175 too little?  I dunno if I can afford much more than $200 right now, with Christmas coming and all...what do you think?

What's your opinion?
