There is someone in my area that is selling his Star Wars Cabinet. Asking price is $850. It is in working condition but it is missing the coin door. Pictures are rough so I'd need to go see it. Saw that one sold on ebay for $1350 a month ago or so. Is this a good deal???
-
Unless the monitor is perfect, and the yoke is perfect, and the art is ALL there and nice, $850 is too high.
-
Depends on where your are; out here on the West coast, you won't often find a working one for much less than that, regardless of condition.
A better question might be: how bad do you want a Star Wars, and are you willing to wait for a deal?
-
I was thinking for that was a good price myself.
Vector games don't seem to last as long.
If it has a good yoke that itself is worth 150 or so.
And Star Wars has that true classic tag that makes its price up there.
If its in good shape... Consider it a good deal.
I personally think its a bit much for a single game. But I would LOVE to have one still.

At auctions here near Baltimore fully restored ones with capped monitors go for about $700, *%!# ones for less.

For some reason, the "What would you do for a Klondike Bar" song just popped into my head. ;D
