Re: You've Got Grail
It pains me greatly to do this, but it's time for me to face the reality of apartment living in San Francisco with a kid on the way.
I have to get rid of some things, but I don't really know what they're worth. Would anyone be so kind as to offer their assessment of the value of the following items?
1) Sega Astro City with a custom 2-player x 7-buttons each layout. Seimitsu sticks, Sanwa buttons. Upgraded woofers. Plastic marquee (but I could never figure out how to attach it.. it seems like some kind of bracket must be missing?). I drilled out the crappy cam locks the previous owner installed, and and put in new authentic SEGA magnetic locks w/keys. There's some custom wiring, including a (self-designed) usb interface for the sticks. Monitor looks great, no burn-in. I think I might have some extra parts & wiring harnesses to throw in with it.
2) 2x imported red JP-style game center benches. I think they came from Fujita Communications, or some place in Fukuoka.
3) Espgaluda II pcb w/full kit & poster. I've only looked at the poster once; it might have a minor kink or two from unrolling it. (The thing is huge and unwieldy)
4) Mushihimesama, pcb only.
Thanks very much for any feedback.

Re: You've Got Grail
Got a virtua striker 4 setup here minus the gdrom drive which has disappeared so basically it's the analogue panel and triforce exp. Type 3. Also got a sega I/O (the one with sonic on it) and a wiring loom to match for egret cab. Might part with separately or together, iam sure a pi could be used to boot the game. Any ideas of value of individual bits or together? Thanks ... oh and a zero gunner 2 cart and an uo poko board

Re: You've Got Grail
- With all the extras i would point the Astro towards 700-850$ if the body is in really good shape with no yellowing and intact art. If the customization is done well it adds value, if its janky it detracts, as most folks prefer an original cab.DaveOrAstroDave wrote:It pains me greatly to do this, but it's time for me to face the reality of apartment living in San Francisco with a kid on the way.

- The 2P benches are usually 120$ each or more if they are leather instead of velour. It depends on state (no smoke environment counts a lot).
- When it comes to kits and PCB's there are folks in here that know the current prices better than me; no point in throwing around figures.

Re: You've Got Grail
I'll be getting a cab with a cp from another cab so I'm gonna sell it.
How much I can ask for it? With buttons but without the joysticks. Edit. Yes, the picture is crap

Re: You've Got Grail
Anyone have any idea what a full set of Kaneko Gals Panic carts are worth?
Gals Panic 4 has a box, and gals panic 2 has a small piece of artwork, otherwise just carts.

Cab valuation
Toying with the idea of selling both my cabs.
Looking to see what I would get for an egret II in reasonable condition. It has no side art after a respray many moons ago. It has some screen burn which can mostly be seen when on a white screen. Also have an original marquee with it.
Also my Aero City. This was one of the nos German cabs with 240v power supply in it. It is great condition with a few paint chips on the front of the cp and little else wrong with it. It only has 49 credits on the coin counter!
Like I said, I'm only thinking of selling, it would be hard to part with either of them. This would be to fund another cab.

Re: You've Got Grail
Eprom is not original, and i would demand a closeup picture of the bottom left, where the battery was. I see some reflections there but not sure what it is.
There are some custom DDP roms out there, so this could be the reason for the eprom.

Re: You've Got Grail
Say the eprom wasn't original, no acid on the board. what would you pay for this? Is it possible that they tried to remove the battery and flipped the switch, giving the board a rom error when booted ?Asure wrote:Eprom is not original, and i would demand a closeup picture of the bottom left, where the battery was.

Re: You've Got Grail
The EPROM will be black label version modified to work on a regular board.

The is also a save hack but that requires a battery to work.

Re: You've Got Grail
Spot on! I didn't even notice the white or black backgrounds. This one has a black background so it's a eprom programmed for the Black label versionyosai wrote:The EPROM will be black label version modified to work on a regular board.

The is also a save hack but that requires a battery to work.
Edit : the owner just said it's switchable between white/black label.
