25 Arcade games for 2 grand ? Long Island NY

[Kevincal]

poorly listed auction on ebay, seems like it might be worth looking into if you live on Long Island.

No best offer? Lololololololololol

A fair deal would be a quarter of that. They all look junked and dirty. Between repairs, replacement parts and moving and storage costs, $500 to buy would probably put you at $2k anyway.

I don't know much about arcade machines, but assuming that most of them work, I don't a ballpark of $80 each (they said that they'll accept offers) sounds outrageous.

Let me educate you then. This is a bunch of garbage. I don't see anything rare there and outside of some generic parts this really should mostly be thrown out. Unless there's a complete Quantum or Varkon hidden in the background somewhere. Then 2K isn't bad at all.

I see a Baby Pac-Man cab in one of those pictures...

No, you see a Baby Pac-Man control panel overlay. THIS is what a Baby Pac-Man looks like...

Who knows what the hell that junk machine is, probably just generic vertical JAMMA hodgepodge - single stick, two buttons on each side, two player start buttons - yup.

Now there is a Super Pac-Man cabinet in the fourth picture, but again, it's just a bunch of junk.

That looks like the shit that didn't sell at an auction that someone left in the truck instead of taking it to the dump.

I'm glad Kevincal posted it because I love looking at stuff like that, but yeah. I wouldn't take that load for free.

$2000 is way too much for converted crap... best bet is to part it all out, but even at $2000 that is a lot...

[Kevincal]

in the auction description they say they welcome offers. ;) I bet they would take $1000.

[fjnllc]

this auction is hilarious, they should be paying someone to burn this trash.

the Ebay category it's listed under says it all... Antique Picture Frames.

When I read the title I was all like "Hell yeah"

then I saw the ad and I was like

You know, I saw this ad a long time ago, and seeing it again still makes me wonder...

Do you get a truck in the deal? The ad states:

"WE WILL LIKE TO SELL THE WHOLE TRUCK AT A GREAT PRICE."

If you get a truck, or even the trailer, $2k probably isn't that bad of a deal, if it is a decent trailer. You'd have to dump most of the garbage in the back though. I have bought games that looked better than those for $5.00 per game at auction. With 20% fees added on, that means I would estimate the value of the arcade junk in this thing at $100ish.

As I look at those pics I feel like somebody out a the show Storage Wars. From what I can see from here........its a pass.

Bad conversions and "hellcades". And where is someone from Long Island going to stash 25 busted up cabs and parts....lol.
