Astro Wars, the Zaccarian Arcade value?
« on: November 27, 2014, 12:28:55 PM »
Hi

This is my first post here, hoping this is the right place.

I love arcade-mashines, and even if I do not have the room for one right now I just could not help my self from buying a Old non working Astro Wars.
Have never seen one in person, but it does look really cool in pictures at least.

But could someone please let me know whats a resonable price for a non working Astor Wars, all the guts is still there, and its i fair condition as far as I can tell from the pictures.


 :oops:

Nice !

Zaccs are cool,

I think its an OK price, i mean, its +-125 euros, so i think its not bad if complete.

also you can be Lucky to find one cheaper, but i still think thats a nice price.

Sorry, my text might have been a little bit confusing so I changed it.

I just want to know a reasonable price for a ASTRO Wars non working arcade.

What Etienne said.

To make a better quote we need pics from outside and inside. Is the monitor OK or does it need a fix, recap or even replacement. Condition of the panel and the artwork, etc.


So 125€ is the asked price for it?

i still think a non worker if complete is worth the 100 pounds.

but indeed to be sure, we need pics and know how is the condition.

Ok, so the price was 350£   :shock:

And no, the monitor is not working.




I just think this is an awesome looking arcade cabinet, but wow is the price point so off?

Well, still nothing to feel bad about. The cab's in good condition and a monitor as well as a PCB can be repaired :)


(don't listen to Ully, he would like to own all types of Zaccaria cabs but we don't sell them to him because he is a hoarder ;)  ;D )

I just thought that was a pretty good price... I feel a bit stupid now, and to make it even worse the shipping (from England to Sweden) would cost me almost as much as the Arcade.

a Picture from inside would be great.

It seems to be orginal from outside.

the bezel is ok, even the CP is not drilled with new holes.

I would say 200€ - 250€ is fair, if it is original inside.

If you like the game the Price is not the Problem.#

Searching Zaccaria Stuff: Zaxxon CPO, JumpBug CPO or CPO Repro
next project: assemble Zaccaria Vanguard.

Don't. It's worth what it's worth TO YOU!  You will forget about the money once it's running at your place :)

i.E. I wouldn't pay 200€ for a Nintendo Donkey Kong (simply not my cup of tee), others pay 1000€....see what I mean ;)


When will you get it?
