So ... what are you keeping ?

If it were me and I was going to keep 2, they would be Asteroids and Scramble. But, I already have an Asteroids, so I am at a loss for the 2nd ... probably one of the Williams, but it would be a tough choice.

...well,  I didn't "get" anything for them "yet".   ;)

I paid a very cool $866.00 for the lot.

Advertised as 5 working 9 non-working... thus far I've been through 4 of the non-working and one of them just happened to be TURNED OFF...so perhaps that is 6 working 8 non working?   That said,  the Galaga was advertised as working...and it is... but man the monitor is bad.

Another reason I'm scared to list my cabs on eBay.  I've got a multicab I've been trying to unload on Craigslist for months now.  If I put it on eBay I'm sure wouldn't get much for it.  And there's that chance that they'd demand to use Paypal - and according to eBay rules I'd have to accept it.

I expected him to be... to the point he may not have done the deal (he only had 14 feedback),  but surprisingly he was pretty unfazed by the results of the auction having said pretty much "I expected they'd go for more... but I am glad to have the space back".

I was put at ease when I talked to him first.

If there is any chance I could lose money on an item, then it does not go on ebay. I tend to only sell random things that I nothing in that will make decent money on ebay. My work has given me several obsolete pieces of equipment to do with as I please. Turns out 'obsolete' is in the eye of the beholder. :)

Friz was kind enough to let me buy the DK and ms pacman from him for a very fair price. :applaud: Glad to contribute to your goal of making enough money to buy a pin! Can't express how excited I am. DK is my all time fave, and my wife has been asking for a ms pac (cocktail, but she said this would work!). And this means I can finally run D2K! ;D

ShanMan - any interest in a Berzerk when you pick up these games from Frizz? I have one a few miles from Frizz for $350. Decent condition, works, monitor looks good, etc.

No. I'm going to be full going back (bringing the galaga back for someone else), and I never was much of a berzerk fan. But keep me in mind in the future if you have games you want to sell. My parents have a 2nd house in Boise so I get out there occasionally, and our next house should have a nice big gameroom so I'll be looking to ramp up on my collection. ;D Thanks for offering though!
