Nah, he won't get that much money...maybe a tenth of it. Played or not, the tape will have the signs of age anyway.

And yes, I will take good care of mine. I think it's bad though. It sounded bad when I listened to it in the original player. A good friend of mine cleaned the player and it doesn't sound better, so I guess it's crap already...but it's a nice piece of arcade history IMHO :)

The auction gave me at least a peek on the back side of the cassette, which makes my repro set complete  ;)  :spaceace:

I saw the difference over there at KLOV.
Will take a look at my cassette why "certron endless cassette" ist still on the sticker  ???



LOL when John tried to turn the paint from brown to blue by stiring it  ;D

But then I could feel his pain when he realized it won't happen  :-\

Looking good! Etienne, I need the artwork for that new label. :)

I finished the blue! I should be done with the restore this weekend. WOOT!

The flash makes the color looking lighter than it is:
