I think £700's a reasonable starting place. You might have to drop, or maybe you'd get more on ebay. Hard to say really. I don't think it's taking the **** to start high considering what you've spent on it overall.
Astros are perhaps common but they're the classic cab for arcades and home. I think it's quite a hot item on ebay if you can be arsed with the hassle of selling it on there.
You talk a lot of sense, Joe.
An Astro from Ronnie would set the impatient buyer (I've been there. More than once) back £600 once shipped. In my experience Ronnie's cabs have been 100% technically as described, but clean and pretty they ain't. I've been extremely happy with the service he provides, but the above caveat has always applied.
It will sell at £700. Might have to wait a while for the right buyer to materialise.
Wondering what it is worth, sat in my place for a few years doing nothing.
These are doorstops worth next to nothing. I have one which i use as testing board on crappy cabs which are likely to burn the board after a few mins..

Oh I know, but how much is nothing? Maybe I should shove it on eBay or donate it to HoG.
Regrettably sold my Astro earlier this year for £500 with NOS cp, new sticks etc...advertised and sold on here. It's about the norm I think for a reasonable condition cab...
Crikey just checked in on here, really started a conversation. I'll advertise the cab at £650 then. I'm not looking to make more than its worth or I'd put it on eBay. I just want to try and get approx what i paid. Cheers for advice. If no one wants it I will mothball it for when I have more space. Cheers
Any ideas on these? I have them for sale but no hits yet. Have the Advance Wars games for £25 posted the pair and the N64 bundle for £40. I thought they seemed decent prices? I normally sell stuff in hours not days! haha
Dont make me bring this lot to Play in my car boot...
Maybe eBay is the destiny of this lot?
And one of these?

I might be interested on that HK OOT cart on its own.
I was going through my stash of movies I've put in storage and found a copy Transfomers The Movie Special Edition DVD by Rhino from 2000. I seem to recall this was something special or sought after? Is it worth anything?
I wish it was worth a lot, I have it too, but it's been released way too many times. The Ultimate Edition has been the best so far and even that's only about a tenner or something. (still available new from play.com for £25)
Completionism is all I can think of. All of the bonus material is on the Ultimate, plus a lot more besides. UE makes it obsolete I'm afraid, I had that sad feel myself when I bought the tin.
That makes me think of the time i bought the R1 import dvdbox for Transformers season 1. I was like when i bought it. When i came home and watched it, it turned out they had left in all the "Transformers will be right back after these messages" - "Transformers is back" things that apperantly were broadcast before and after every commercial break in the US. So, that's like 100 times per episode. The mood went to very quickly. I couldnt even bring myself to selling it and make someone else suffer that ****. I dont even remember what i did with it, i hope i burned it.
I have ideas what this is worth but I have been collecting it for the last year and I am a bit reluctant to sell and all this stuff is in REALLY good condition and took me a while to get. Its all PAL.
