$90 for a working arcade cabinet in almost any condition is a good deal, so for one that was never made, it's an astounding find! Good job!

Post count of four, claiming to purchase a game that doesn't exist? Man, you're just dripping credibility aren't you?

Wow a polybius and a " Bubble Bath Girls"!
What Is The rarest Video game you have?Mine Would probably be Chase The Chuckwagon For Atari 2600 Or Bubble Bath Girls Ffor the NES.Next bes would be both wonderswans (b&w And color) for 10 bucks at a garage sale.
That was out of his first post. This guy must collect variants and unreleased arcades. You collection is worth millions!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's nothing. I found Nolan Bushnell at a garage sale once for $6.75. I keep him in the basement and feed him Oreos.

It's funny cause it's true!
No, really, these kinda posts will deteriorate your image fast. Just another user to add to my "never trust again in the future" mental database.

Polybius!?!?!?!?
I would sell you my soul for that cabinet. I will put it up on ebay tonight, just for you.
All I have to say to this thread is, "All your base are belong to us"

Quit being mean you guys, you're going to scare him off!
SweetTooth177, I believe you. As you may or may not know, I have a large collection of arcade games, and a Polybius cabinet would definitely be the centerpiece of my collection.
I just called the bank and explained the situation and they are willing to lend me ten thousand dollars to buy this game. Read that again.
Ten. Thousand. Dollars.
Please send me a several pictures of the cabinet within 48 hours, with you (or someone else) holding a sign in the picture that says "Flack". That will authenticate the pictures.
Ten. Thousand. Dollars. Get busy.

Flack's an honest fellow, I'm 100% sure he'd give you 10k for it.
Though, I know what's coming....
