A local Putt-putt had a broken simpsons arcade in their area of older games.

It had been broken for atleast 2 months to my knowledge. I was hoping I could get it at a decent price and fix it up.

I checked saturday and it was working. We called on it today and the guy said he'd let it go for $1,200. Told him fuck no. I had been told that the coin door constantly goes on the fritz. The wood on the cabinet itsself has seen better days, side are is so so, and the contraol panel was partially damaged right near the marge controller stick.

Sucks :( You'd think that for $1,200, you could get something that looked halfway decent.

I'd sell you any four of my games for that.

No shipping.

Almost as bad as the gamecrazy guy who thought I was trying to collect all the renovation games for genesis (was actually a coincidence, I just asked for titles) and he's like "Man! People on ebay get these in sets...like the tengen for nintendo and sell em for 900$ or something crazy."

LoL

That I agree on.

1,200.00? wow! I mean...just wow. I'd have to say that someone didn't factor in the money they already MADE on it when they tried to remember what they originally paid. x_x
