WTB: Space Invaders OK/TX/KS/AR areas

[EricDeLee]

I'm looking for someone wanting to part with a Space Invaders UR perferablly... but cocktail okay.  I'm mainly wanting the original... but DELUXE would be considered.  

I don't want to spend too much... but will be reasonable.
If you have one in Oklahoma... Id probably be able to pick that one up easier than all of the other states.

I don't have much to offer in trading... but if you want to knock a little off of the price... I have a Tempest cab (UR) that has been gutted.  However... it is in wonderful shap (marquee, coin door, control panel,  beautiful side art)... and many parts from an Astro Blaster cab.  (The PSBs are there for Astro Blaster... but have not been tested)

Please email me with an amount!!

Description
Fun game with perfect vector graphics and sound. The outside needs a little cleaning, and the plastic overlay on the keypads is cracked at the folds (I can provide photos). The glass is in good condition with no big scratches or chips.

This game was originally bought for a resturant, but has been in my garage since the mid 1980s. It's been well taken care of, but I think that just age and heat caused the cracking of the plastic. It should not be too difficult to replace, however - it just needs to be stripped off and a new layer applied.

I'm asking $600 plus shipping/handling, but negotiable."

I would e-mail him myself as this sounds like a pretty kewl cocktail.. but I think that -- despite claiming to be negotiable -- this price is way too high (for that price it should still smell new, as far as I'm concerned) and my interpretation of a 'reasonable' price may conflict with his interpretation of an 'insulting' one.

The last Super Auction in Mesquite TX has 1 UR, 1 cocktail, 2 UR deluxe.  You might want to try the next one May 17th.

Are you looking for a working game or just the cabinet?
