Need some quick advice

[shawnbo42]

Hey all,
Got a guy on Craigslist (local) selling a Desert Fox and Pursuit. Both black&white games from the 70's, both working, and look really clean. The guy had them posted at $175 for both, but now has sent me an email stsating he's got another offer for $175 EACH. Worth it? I've still got first call, but I've gotta give the guy an answer by tomorrow. I don't know too much about these two games, maybe someone else could give some advice?

They do look nice. My experience with games from that generation is that unless you love collecting them or love playing them, I'd avoid them. There doesn't seem to be a huge market for that era, unfortunately. If you like the older black and white games then I would pick them up, no doubt.

That's about what I came up with as well. Unfortunately, I think I'll let 'em slide. Not exactly easy to find in that shape though. The guy said they were home use only for at least 15 to 20 years, so they probably don't have a lot of mileage on them. But, although I am a collector/player of arcade machines, the black and whites never really did it for me. Thanks for the opinion.
