How much is an 6player xmen system worth?
« on: August 07, 2007, 02:17:26 pm »
This is being sold locally and i am wondering what would be a good price to offer for it.  he says there is some fading and scratches, but over all is in good condition.

he also says the color is off on one of the screens.

It is really hard to judge the value on this one because the market of people who would even buy it is very slim. The screens would be a PITA to service/replace as well as all of the artwork.This thread could be of help to you: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=58865.msg580711#msg580711
Odds are the real condition is nothing like it was described to you originally. Go check it out, take some pics and report back. I highly doubt the guy has people lined up at the door. ;)

If I had to throw out a number, I would say $300-$400 in working condition is a good starting point.

Thats the thing with arcades. They are soo large that shipping is obviously out of the question. So you are trying to sell something that has a specific market and since its so large you are limiting yourself to someone within ~300 miles of you. So someone on the west coast could get 200 bucks more than someone here in say Illinois... Just depends on your area and where ya list it of course. Id say list it on craigslist for close to what you want to get for it. As well as listing it on ebay possibly with a reserve stating that it is listed locally and you have the right to close the auction early if it is sold locally first.
