~$600-$800 on a good day. Not rare. Very common conversion kit for any 4-player cab.

Thanks

But where are the ones with GOLD on both sides, I can only find GOLD under the left portion not both

Don't let yourself get sidetracked by the whole "Gold" business. The exact software revision has almost no bearing on the value of a 10+ year old sports arcade game. It means something when it is new and can still earn, doesn't mean a darn thing now.

You would probably have a hard time getting much more than $500 for it. Serious game collectors generally don't buy sports titles, which really limits your market.

If selling unload it this income tax season, that is the sort of game that is still losing value, as they are still coming off locations, being unloaded out of operator's warehouses and otherwise still making their way into the home owners circles in significant numbers.

400-700 depending on if it has 8 ways or 49 ways, and if you have the right buyer.  I wouldnt drop more than 450 on it personally

DGP:
I own the same cab (both gold revisions with the latest updates, new chips & HD) and the value of these is really more determined by the condition (which is of course normal for all cabs). However, this is not one of those games that generally seems to have a 'going rate' like many of the classics do. I have seen these sell from $150 (banged up or not working) up to $1500 (mint home use only).

The sad thing with these is they can be worth a good bit more parted out than they are complete. :(

These have the VEGAS board in them and as such are worth much more than the standard Blitz cabs (have seen the boards alone sell for $400+ on ebay). With the proper chips and HD/CF they can be converted to other games. They also will usually have 49 way sticks unless they have been swapped out and those are worth more as well (aside from being the best way to play both games). A good condition medium resolution 25" with no burn is also difficult to come by so that can up the value (been trying to find a reasonable priced one for months).

If it's in good shape and fully functional then do not give it away, just find the right buyer that appreciates the games (which is not usually the guys that buy the classics).
Best of luck,  :cheers:
