Mrs Pacman cabinet worth?
« on: October 25, 2017, 09:58:25 am »
I just found this cabinet online. An old Mrs Pacman. Unfortunately the screen doesn't work anymore. What would be a reasonable price for this?

How much are they going to pay you to take it?

I see 2 different cabs; a gambling machine and a homemade tabletop.
Neither is Ms. Pacman.  ???

They are worth about as much as the materials it would take to build them.

Glad you saw this also -was thinking maybe I was seeing things - but the 2 pics are of different machines and neither is Ms. Pacman

Agreed, the first is a bootleg full-sized cabinet (not a Midway cab) but the second is bartop with 25th anniversary pac-man custom graphics.

Wow, now I see as well. Even the joysticks are different if you look (not even that) closely. Looks like a scam or something then. I saw Pacman and heard 100 euro, so I thought profit. But nevermind then...  :laugh2:

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

Dudes, it's 100 freaking Euros.  That's only $120 in real money.  What's the worst that's gonna happen?

If prior experience serves as an indicator, it's either a western union scam or some seller that grabbed a couple "close enough" pics off the internet for their ad.

Man rape
Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin to slit throats.

The secret is to relax and breath deeply.  Don't be a coward.
