I think its a bit high... but if you love it, and its cosmetically in great shape... then its a great deal.

Its like furnature... that you can play.  And most people wouldn't think twice about paying 400 for a sofa.

I agree with you 100%.....

originally he told me it was factory showroom perfect....what a surprise?...the  more I talked to him the more "minor" cosmetic damage their was.

I plan on checking it out in person (it's not too far from me for once)....and I'm fully prepared to offer $300.-$350. and walk if I don't think it's in good shape.

UPDATE!!!!

well it turn out that one man's "mint condition" is another man's "handy man special".

...I still can't believe that this guy said his cab was "mint condition and looks practically brand new".

Well if when it rolled off of the Nintendo line they gouged the sizes....waterlogged the bottom.....adjusted the screen to show only 2/3 of the video....washed out the colors.....removed the art (on the sides)....removed most of the molding (but left on some cracked yellowed pieces....put cobwebs and mouse dropping into it for "atmosphere"...burned the control panel with cigarettes.....and oh yeah, turned off the marquee light....

...then yeah. That thing was showroom fresh.

Man, I think my wife was more pissed that I was for the 1.5 hour trip we had to make to see this hunk of junk.

He wanted $400. I offered $200. (and I thought that I was being generous because I know I could fix it up with some love).....but his wife looked at me as if I just told her to go F off.

Oh well.

I guess it was not to be!
