Time Pilot - IL
« on: October 12, 2009, 12:13:46 pm »
Not mine, but I bought the Street Fighter from this guy and I was really really tempted to buy the Time Pilot.

http://chicago.craigslist.org/nch/vgm/1409810421.html

He was asking $100 for it.

They belonged to his dad and he said he doesn't play them and his kids play their tv games so he just wants to make room.  He either doesn't know the true value of these games, or it's worth more to him to get rid of them then it is to try and make money off them.

The Time Pilot works, The cabinet isn't in perfect shape, it has a few chips on the edges, but I think it's in great shape.  The coin door looks like it has some issues and there was a little water damage at the bottom of the Street Fighter so I'm assuming the Time Pilot wold have the same.  The monitor had a little burn in it, but I've seen worse burn in the Arcades.

The voices in my head were screaming for me to buy it, but I don't have the room or the time and energy to turn around and resell it.

The Cabinet for the Space Invaders looks like it's in great shape too, but since I don't have the skills or interest in fixing it I didn't even bother asking him about it.
