sku_u Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 Hi there, I'm saving up for one of these with plans on purchasing in the Summer. What would be a fair price for one in excellent condition with the service manual? These are two of my favorite games and I'd love to have this cab complete with both games. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Galaga Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 Personally, I don't like the 25 inch screen - it just doesn't look right/good on a big screen. Also, I have heard that the monitors have a high failure rate after a while. If I were you, I would save up for 2 original machines - that's what I did (plus it will probably be cheaper). Just my 2-bits worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badbrad Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 My Galaxian is an original 25 incher, and it looks awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 They're pricey since they're pretty much brand new. Avg. price is probably a grand or three.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulMcCraneFan Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 Don't forget that you can also play Pac Man on these machines, using the joystick code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassidy Nolen Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 Retail for the upright is 2500-2800 new. I would not pay more than 2600 for one personally. Cassidy Hunt around, you may find one at auction for less than that. Not by much though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcadenut Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 My Galaxian is an original 25 incher, and it looks awesome. Original? They never made a 25" Galaxian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sku_u Posted March 5, 2003 Author Share Posted March 5, 2003 Thanks for the advise, guys. There's a warehouse outlet for Coin-Ops in my area that sells these. They're currently asking for $2500 w/free shipping within 50 miles. I guess I'm going to go for it in the near future. Unless I find one for less.
