Sheesh, it's a terrible time to be a seller. I have bought more in 2009 and 2010 than I ever have because the prices have been so good. Arcade machines have it even worse though. You can't sell anything but an A list arcade game for more than $250. With pins it seems anything priced over $1,500 is going to sit for a long while unless it's an A list game.

I guess I just live in a great market area then. I seem to have no trouble finding buyers at the prices I want - vids or pins. I just sold a single unit Cruisin USA for $800, and an MKII in a Generic 19" Dynamo cut corner cab for $400. Not to mention I sold that Lethal Weapon 3 pin fully refurbished for $1200 a while back.
FrizzleFried:
Yes... it's the area. Asteroids are sitting at $250.00 here... my Xenon pin sat with little to no response at $450 for a week before I pulled the trigger... Terminator 2 had to be discounted to $350 before it sold... even "A" list "sure fire sales" like Ms. Pac Man aren't selling for decent dough. A friend of mine has a NICE Ms. Pac on CL for $1,000/obo. It's a nice cab... all original... nice monitor... very good 8/10 ORIGINAL condition... he's gotten offers of $150-$250.... that is it.

Ms. Pac-Man hasn't been a $1,000 game in years, when you get down to it.

Yeah... and he knows that... but he figured he'd throw it out there. I'm just surprised by the lack of decent offers.
I told him if he gets an offer of $650+ he should consider jumping on it.
I also told him I'd take it off his hands for $300... it didn't work.
