My guess is some clueless parent checked ebay for "pacman arcade machine" and found the real ones for >$500 thinking thats what this was.

Might have been funnier if the picture was shot in a way that made it look like a huge cabinet  ;D

I am a huge PacMan collector (spent over $2000 on eBay buying stuff!) and that is just INSANE.   I saw that before I saw it posted here.   The Highest I've personally seen these go without box is about $80. With box, about $140.

I have 2 extra ones of these that I've cleaned up and fixed switches on that have sticker glue seepage. I'll gladly sell for $45 each+shipping. :)

Reality still has not hit.  Starting bid now only $200.
Talk about being out of touch.

OH MY GOD ! ! !

I remember that pacman game that only played 2 players.I used to play it all the time and I think I will buy it for $500 even though it says "NOT FOR KID !".

Is this really a 2 players pacman game(what the f_uck is 2 players pacman game.....anyone?) or some kind of machine with a hard drive filled with dirty porn.

NOT FOR KIDS !#%! !! !

I like that he SHOWS you the (marked down) 20 dollar price tag.

All for the low, low price of 300 bones.

Post by: Lilwolf on October 25, 2002, 12:09:49 pm
HAHAHAHA

how stupid to keep the new price tag that he got it for... duh!

he should at least add an extra 9 in there to make it seem like he isn't reaming anyone who bids

What is the world coming to!?  I can see the guy wants to make some $$$.  (Don't we all, need it to spend on controls, interfaces, wiring, monitor, wood... 8))  But geese, have some common sense and remove the price tag!  I can't believe what things go for (and don't go for) on eBay!

"The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer available for sale. "

My guess us he pulled it, put an artificially inflated bid, and re-listed it, so the next guy would think he's getting the deal of the century at only $200?

I bought one of these for $40.  Pretty close to what they originally sold for.  Only diff is that mine has a ripped marquee sticker, easily reprinted at Kinkos for a buck or two from artwork available online.  The guy needs to look at one of the dozens of recently completed auctions on this item.   :P
