Title: Pricecheck: Original Pac Man cab
Post by: ElPancho on March 17, 2014, 12:25:59 PM
Hi everyone

I'm thinking about selling my Pac Man cab.
It is at my parents house in a heated spare room they have over there, but I haven't fired it up the last year.

So, if the worst case scenario hits....how much does a non-working Pac Man cab go for.
And in the best case ... how much does a working Pac Man cab go for.

It has also been jamma-tized by the previous owner, and it has a multi-pac-man board fitted. So if the new owner wants it back to original state it would imply re-wiring and sourcing a original Pac Man pcb.

Ofcourse I will test the cab before selling it.

Thanks !

There's also a smaller annex of the pinball hall of fame in the Riviera casino, if you're stuck on the strip.

I'll shoot some pictures asap. Due to severe lack of time I won't do any rewiring and/or sourcing an original Pacman PCB. Leaving it as-is, sorry.

Ok. Back on topic.

1) I bought a non working Ms Pacman back in 2012 from a forum member for 550 EUR (in the end I ripped off everything, that's why I know have an empty shell) - will be RasperriBy'd in 6 weeks :)
2) I bought a working Ms PacMan 6 weeks back on ebay Germany (advertisement) for 550 EUR. With large monitor burns and ususal bad side arts.
3) There's was a working PacMan on Jamma+ (from the Lass O Growie pub) which sold somewhere around 500- 700 EURs (private deal, but that's what was asked for it if I remember correctly)
4) I imported a non working Pac Man via Love for 550 EUR
5) There's one Ms PacMan on ebay GErmany right now asking 1000+ (and will last forever)

So - I would say - according to working/non working condition, overall artwork condition and of course location (is of importance for some members / buyers)  you might get something between 500-1000 EURs.

In these days...

If in good condition and working I'm interested too, but would give Tyrem the first shot on this one - hence he badly wants these yellow cabs in his "loft" :)

non-working pac-man in original unrestored condition: i'd say 500 - 600 euros. working one in restored condition: 800 - 1000 euros!

My opinion:

Non-working (150 - 400) Depends of cab condition and if have all original parts.
Working, bad cosmetic state (Cab with several damages) - 500-700
Working, very good state condition (perfect do not exist) - 900-1100

I want and give estimate costs only to original cabs, for me reproduction's have zero (0) value.

This is one of the cabs that i searching for. If someone have one to sell in above conditions please contact me.
