My Ebay account has also a start letter and an end letter (ofcourse), but they are not related to my real name, so i guess you cannot tell by that its Ully's account.

EDIT:
Just read Andre's comment on the subject, sorry to double post the same info..

There is a Star Wars cockpit on ebay.co.uk:

Some very weird lines in the text of that ad:

Most of the Sit down cabinets were returned to the factory and turned into Hydra cabinets (spit) so these are rare beast in this condition.

Fist of all there is nothing wrong with Hydra so why spit ? But more important, I've never ever seen a SW cockpit converted into hydra.

This IS a Wells-Gardner monitor (the one you want).

Uh, NO, you want the original Amplifone, not those damn WG6100s !

I don't want to know the final price... :(
I have everything can be shipped (to Italy hehe) of that damned cockpit: power brick, ARII (many), boardsets (many many) wiring, CP, yoke (many many many), amplifone monitor and some players (just me!)... is it possible no one wants to sell "just the wood"??

I read on J+ the seller can be trusted (for what it's worth), but he seems to want big money for it. He already sold it ones for 900 Pounds but it didn't go on

I only post it here, because it can be a opportunity for someone

Pong!

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Atari-Pong-1972-Original-Arcade-Machine-Mint-Rare-Serial-No-JJ-028-/151063217179?pt=UK_Video_Games_Coin_Operated_MJ&hash=item232c11c41b

7500£ :o  ???

Damn! I would sell mine for the half of that price!  :ghost:

Let's keep its description :

Introducing the original ATARI PONG!

Own a piece of 1972 history! Fully functional and in museum condition!


This Arcade Machine is so rare and will only go up in value!

Collection in London SW15 (Look before you buy!)

Originally bought from hotel owner who had a museum section with memorabilia.

In Mint condition. Have shipping papers and original Ebay winning auction papers/receipts! Owned for 10 years. All working fine. Once switched wait 20/30 seconds for black and white TV display!

INFO WHEN I WON ITEM ON 4TH OCTOBER 2004!eBay Item Won! 1977 Vintage Pong Arcade Machine (Item #6121494349)

Atari released the first arcade version of PONG in late 1972. Atari launched the commercial version of PONG: the famous "yellow" cabinet. Earlier specimens had silver knobs whereas later ones had black knobs. Although some collectors prefer the first version, this kind of difference does not change the importance of PONG in the video game history, nor does it change the value of this game. The machines were numbered at the manufacturing plant and a lot of people say erratic things about the serial numbers of their machines. Nolan Buschnell (who designed Atari PONG) explained that the serials were encoded to avoid guessing how many machines were manufactured. Serials start with two same letters followed by three or four digits. The first machines to roll off the assembly line were numbered ZZ-001 through ZZ-999, then AA-001 through AA-999, then YY-001 through YY-999 and then back to BB-001 through BB-999 and so on. Thus, the very first machine had serial ZZ-001 and those with serials starting with AA have machine between #1000 and #1999. Those with YY have a machine between #2000 and #2999.

Pong is a first generation video game released originally as a coin-operated arcade game by Atari Inc. on November 29, 1972. Pong is based on the sport of table tennis (or "ping pong"), and named after the sound generated by the circuitry when the ball is hit. The word Pong is a registered trademark of Atari Interactive, while the term "pong" is used to describe the genre of "bat and ball" video games.

Pong was the first video game to achieve widespread popularity in both the arcade and home console markets, and it is credited with launching the initial boom in the video game industry.

Pong is a two-dimensional sports game which simulates table tennis. The player controls an in-game paddle by moving it vertically across the left side of the screen, and can compete against either a computer controlled opponent or another player which controls a second paddle on the opposing side. Players use the paddles to hit a ball back and forth. The aim is for a player to earn more points than the opponent, which are earned when one fails to return the ball to the other


This has been relisted for a whole £500 less than before: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Atari-Pong-1972-Original-Arcade-Machine-Mint-Rare-Serial-No-JJ-028/151078071420?_trksid=p2047675.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D11%26meid%3D9035018346540622205%26pid%3D100011%26prg%3D1005%26rk%3D1%26sd%3D151063217179%26

Some very weird lines in the text of that ad:

Most of the Sit down cabinets were returned to the factory and turned into Hydra cabinets (spit) so these are rare beast in this condition.

Fist of all there is nothing wrong with Hydra so why spit ? But more important, I've never ever seen a SW cockpit converted into hydra.

This IS a Wells-Gardner monitor (the one you want).

Uh, NO, you want the original Amplifone, not those damn WG6100s !

Wow, that was cheap, ESP. for the UK  !!
