Would you pay 225.00 for a dead defender?

If the cab really is 8 out of 10, it's worth it.
Replacing the monitor isn't that expensive.

Something else to look at though is are you planning to do a full Multi-Williams kit (artwork and all)?
If you're looking to replace the artwork anyway, paying for good artwork seems kind of pointless to me.

Wave $150 cash at him in person and see if he bites. I would say if the cabinet is truly in almost perfect shape, then bite the bullet and pay what he is offering - but be critical and point out any flaws. And don't be so certain the boards are fine. They are only working if you can play the game blind, and even then may have an issue...

Lilwolf:
I got one with bad sideart for 25...

if its dead... 90% should be artwork, you will not want to redo this... Everything else is pretty replaceable.   heck, the joysticks seems to be everywhere these days.  The control panel hard may be replaceable... Marquee with scratches when the light is on is annoying.

but for that money, I would expect a near perfect  (especially on a quick look) artwork...

Can you be more specific?  I've got a Stargate I'm restoring I need a joystick for.

Peale what do you need?
I have some 2 way joy parts in a box somewhere.
Let me know.

As far as the Defender goes I have not gone to look at it ..........Yet
I know if I go to look .....I will want to buy it. So I am doing my best to resist temptation, I have galaxian cab that I am converting to a multicade, and when I flip that I will have some extra cash.

But I think it's still too much for a non working game, 150.00 and I'd jump (only cause I want one)but I doubt he will go that low, he said he bought it for 400.00 and that sounds about right ballpark anyway.
