Title: Arcade Legends Pac Man family classics

Does anyone know if this is a good deal or how much they usually go for?

IIRC, those were recalled because they were distributed illegally.  Same thing for ones that have Nintendo games on them.

Not sure on the price of them.  They come up every once and a while though, but not a lot.

It sounds like they may be rare. Sounds like a good deal compared to the retail price of $399.

...it looks like a USB stick.  I'm guessing it's just some roms on a USB stick...so...not sure it would be ever considered 'rare'...

You cant just throw roms on an Arcade Legends so unless you have the stick with the install you can't add games. If its not made anymore and it doesn't come up on ebay very much I would call that rare and at about a 1/4 of retail I'd say that's a good deal.

It's still a racket. I wouldn't buy such a machine.
