I understand but Ms Pac-Man do not have a value of 1000$ and never had it, 750$ is the average value for what i saw on ebay in the pasts years. Star Wars, i'm pretty sure you can sell it for this price later if you can ship it. Shipping is the most important thing to sell easily on ebay. If you offer the shipping via forwardair for example you can sell for 1200$ in 1-3 years imho !   Wait for the next coming out of the trilogy films in Blue Ray disc !!!   it is a great Classic, and i think this game will raise a lot in value in the next 10 years because it's vector game also.

The US market is big, i remember Sparky sold his Black Hole 1600US$ on ebay, he try here on MAACA for 1200$ and did not sell it.

It all depends on how many people want your game, and how much they are willing to spend. In my case, both REALLY wanted it! I got lucky.

In fact, in that case, I felt bad for the guy paying that much for it so I delivered it to his place near Allentown for 50$ (which paid my hotel room for coming one day early for the expo). The guy ended up having 30 pins in his huge garage and we spent the whole evening chatting, playing pin and drinking beer. And in the end, he gave me another 150$.


Retiring soon...

Well, I just picked-up the small lot of five uprights/projects.
Pics below.

The Golden Tee is already spoken for at this time.
The Centipede probably as well, but not confirmed yet.

Here's the Puck-Man, an unknown UR with a mirror marquee,
and the Arkanoid. Some will be for sale later, at an affordable price
(a lot lower than some of the quotes in the previous posts).

Speaking of the Arkanoid, what was the original game in that Universal cab
in the third picture?

Cheers,
- Sylvain.
