Thinking of saleing my galaga whats a good price.

[Hawk Daddy]

Fully working, has been repainted black, has a new cp. And new happ buttons in stalled, what would be a good price to set on this thing?  I've only got around $200 in it total.  The machine wasn't but $50 and the cp was like $35, i replaced the speaker grill, buttons, marquee bulb, coin lights.

I've seen ones in good shape sell at auction for around $800. I've seen working galaga's in bad cosmetic shape sell for as low as $300.

I've seen solid empty cabinets with no trace of Galaga sell between $50-$75

[Hawk Daddy]

So $650 is a good price then correct?

Depending on your location...

I've seen some locally here go for around $500 in similar condition (based on what you've described)

Location is key.  Shipping/pickup costs, availability of other machines in the area, and number of collectors in the area makes a big difference.

Also ask yourself how fast you want to get rid of it. If you go to high you might not sell it for awhile. $650-$700 seems like a good starting price, you will probably get slightly lower offers.

Good luck with the sale man!

Got cha, $650 sounds to me fair and to the buyer since it is in really good shape.

You seem like a bright kid and probably know this already, but be sure to emphasize all the strong points of the cab in your ad as well. From how you describe it to us here, it is pretty immaculate. Be sure and really play off of the condition in your ad & the nostalgic value of the game itself, etc, etc...

Where do you plan to list the item? Ebay, Craigslist? If it is as good as you say and are planning on using ebay, I would use the "featured plus" listing upgrade. It costs about $20 but on an item like this it could really pay off. 1 more thing...Take many many high quality pictures, closeups, different angles, etc...You can't have too many.   

These are sodas in these mugs...okay?

No a person locally was interested it in. I infact wasn't going to sell it, but you know for the right price anything if for sale.
