Nintendo Penguin Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 What is a fair price for a good-working Pole Position II? I mean the stand up one, not the one you sit down in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassidy Nolen Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 350 would be the most you should pay. Dedicated or converted, does not matter. They are hard to keep working, BTW... Ebay makes them go high. I have sold MANY in the 250-300 range (good color, controls, etc.) HTH, Cassidy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintendo Penguin Posted March 4, 2003 Author Share Posted March 4, 2003 Thanks Cassidy.... I suspected ebay was a tad expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariKee Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 Stay AWAY! Stay FAR away! Believe me, Pole Position machines are a nightmare. If something fries on the board (and it's usually on the video board), you may as well pull the monitor and torch the rest. You'll never find anyone to fix them. Having said that, I've got one that's been sitting in a laundrymat, on 24 hours a day (with fans blowing on the boards and the 2- ARII boards) for over three years without any problems. But that's just a fluke. I have sold or destroyed many more dead ones. If you do pick one up, I wouldn't pay more than a couple hundred dollars for one. $300 tops if the monitor is nice and bright or freshly recapped. Just prepare yourself for the eventual death of the game. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
