I know this is a stretch, since this is a "build your own" forum, after all. But I'm looking to sell or trade this cocktail Mame machine:

If interested, just send me an email. I can get more pictures or provide more detail. This can be shipped with standard UPS (won't require freight shipping).
Thanks,
Wade

Nice looking cocktail!!
BTW if you ever end up selling the Who Dunnit Pinball don't hesitate to email me ;)! My wife saw this the other day and won't stop nagging me about it and I am not TOO far from you (VA).
Good Luck with the sale!

Thanks!
I REALLY love the WD pin!! Lots to do, and I love trying to solve the case and capture the killer (a lot harder to capture him/her than you would think). The music and sounds are just awesome and go great with the theme, too. A lot of people say this game isn't "deep" enough, but on the contrary, everyone who has played it at my house has mentioned how there is so much to do and learn about the game. Of course, none of those people have been hardcore pinheads or collectors. :) I don't plan to sell it, in fact it is in such nice condition that I've nearly promised myself to make it a keeper. But you never know, if it comes down to me never getting another pin or selling this one to pay for another, I may sell it. :) The good news this game is not very expensive and I seem them fairly often in nice condition. So if you decide you really want one, you shouldn't have too much trouble getting one. :)
Thanks again!

Oh yeah, I'm in Charleston, WV 25314. You can get an estimate for shipping online (it can be packaged within normal UPS size limits). I would guess that it weighs 50-75 lbs, I'd estimate on the high side to be safe. I can weigh it if someone is seriously interested, it's no big deal.
I will be out of town for the next few days, so I might be checking my email but I definitely won't be able to get more pictures or weigh it during that time.
If I sell this outright I'd like to get about $700 for it. Whether selling or trading, I'd like to finish up the things on the "to-do" list on the web page, which will really make the game 100% complete, not just 100% working.
For a trade, I'd be willing to trade something of lesser value. I'd prefer a classic video game or pin. For a dedicated vid that I particularly like, I would be willing to go much lower (for example, an even trade for a $300-400 vid). Some examples might be a Mario Brothers or Moon Patrol, neither are particularly valuable but I like the game and would be happy to trade for it.
I've put a lot of effort into making this game nice, over the past 9 months or so. It is not just thrown together, it is very well sorted and works flawlessly. It needs very little more to make it really nice, new/custom graphics and new glass being the biggest things. I understand that most of the people on this forum have the ability and the time to make a project just as nice, or nicer, than this one. But I'm posting it here because there may be someone who just wants to save themself the trouble. Since I already have a Mame that plays just about everything, I'd rather replace this game with something dedicated.
Thanks!

Looking to sell for $500 if someone is interested. There are some local games for the price that I'd like to buy.
Thanks,

Nice looking table!
Not to hijack the thread, but where did you get those clear red push buttons?

Thanks! They are short translucent red pushbuttons from Bob Roberts, with a lamp behind each one to make them glow.

GameLauncher. I use it on my loaded upright Mame. I really like it because it is plain and simple. :)

I know its a long shot, but I have a BattleShark game in Cleveland, Tn. (next to Chattanooga)
If you were willing to go on a 6 hr road trip I may be willing to trade.
It works perfectly and looks pretty nice. Has a medium res. monitor that looks great!
Anyway, maybe if you were in the neigborhood!!
BTW, this thing wieghs over 400lbs and is a BEAST to move ;D ;D

You got PM Wade...
-
:) I might be interested in that if it were closer. But at 6 hours one way and 400 lbs, I think I should probably hold out for something else. :)

This looks like a great cocktail table. It would make a great addition to anyone

How about a Mr and Mrs. Pacman Pinball machine? I'm at the 21113 zip code and you'd have to deliver and pickup yourself. Let me know. Oh, I also have a near mint Battle Shark, but not sure if I want to trade it...
Kill the dog to email me.

DreamArcades,
Thanks for the compliment and the advice. Hopefully, I can find someone to trade with or sell to who is a reasonable drive away. It's always best if someone can see the item in person before buying it, especially a used/restored game like this one.
XtraSmiley,
You're quite a distance away. I'd possibly be interested in a trade if we would meet halfway. Do you have any pictures of the Mr. and Ms. Pacman?
Thanks,
Wade

Hey Wade,

Not sure why the message didn't go through, I definitely remember replying. Anyway, you have a new PM now. ;)
