    Default Ghosts of Tron arcade machine

    http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI...category=13716

    Comes with ghost. Seen playing the machine.



    Blame that ghost when the unit doesn't power up and the control panel and side art is all messed up.

    Who would bid on this thing under these conditions? This thing could be gutted inside.

    Great picture too. You'd have to TRY to get a picture this bad and I'm thinking he did just that.

    I agree with you. I wouldn't bid on this cabinet if I didn't have any means to see it working. And with such a hazy picture (and no pict of the game working, nor of the side art), there's no telling what state it really is into.

    Or that could be smoke from the machine . With all the dust on the games, I'd say it would take a good 3 days to get it clean enought to even see the panels.

    When in doubt, fall back on Flack's Ebay Rule #1.

    Working = 50/50 chance of it working.
    Untested = No chance in hell.

    Tron's a fairly proprietary cabinet. Whatever you spend on that machine, expect to double it getting it to work. Just a guess.

    Somebody was smoking crack when they bid $500 on an untested machine.

    Its like they have a fog machine going to cover up how crappy it is. $500 is just insane.
