You've Got Grail! The Valuation Thread

[wigsplitta]

+1 from me too. Prices look to have stayed the same since over the past few years. Great quality panels he does, was involved in a group buy a few years ago and anyone was happy with theirs.

Get one Pete, you won't be disappointed

Mine also came in with a batch, and quite a few months to arrive but all great in the end.

Any idea what a Crimson Katana POP-A is worth? New in unopened box, shipping from USA.

EDIT: I didn't getting any price suggestions, but it did sell for $150 plus shipping, for future reference!

[SuperPang]

Not selling. Asking for shipping insurance purposes as they’re due a battery change lol

Espgaluda
DDP DOJ
DDP DOJ BL (although I swapped the ROM out so maybe these are indistinguishable without it? )

Why do you even have batteries on the first two? Neither game saves scores and settings are stored in nvram.

Depending on what you did to BL, you possibly don't even need a battery for that either.

[SuperPang]

settings are stored in nvram.

Which is powered by the battery innit.

[nem]

Yes yes, I'm an idiot.

Technically, NVRAM is short for non-volatile ram. I forgot these boards use battery backed static ram, not flash. Nevermind.

Carry on.

[SuperPang]

Carry on.

How much do working Ketsui boards tend to go for nowadays?
(and do they come up for sale often?)

[markedkiller78]

What’s an original Dyna Gear + SSV motherboard worth?

I’d say about £1200
Not a super rare for a Cave game, but less common than an Espgaluda or Esprade…

I saw one on Yahoo a few weeks ago, but the board was running the cursed first revision of the game, and the import tax would've kind of stung at the price it was at, so I decided against trying to get it (I wasn't 100% certain at the time that it could be rom swapped to the newer version of the game, so I didn't want to risk it).
Ended up selling for ~£510, maybe I should've grabbed it lol

[SuperPang]

It’s a simple socketed ROM swap. Someone got a bargain. I’ve never played the version without the lock on tinnitus.

Undercover Cops (World version)
What's a fair price

How much is a Neo XYX MVS kit worth?

Hello all, I’m looking to reduce my cab footprint somewhat, what’s the current climate for cabs like? It feels pretty quiet out there (not a surprise the way the world is atm).

Possibly looking to get out of the game entirely or maybe keep one cab but what are the ballparks on these? I know prices went wild during Covid but where are we now?

I know it’s probably the worst time to do it but here we are.

NAC
Windy 2
E2
Canary (g60s battered one, bad screen burn)

[pubjoe]

I wouldn't call it the worst time. There might not be queues of buyers but if you valued them at prices of ten years ago there certainly would be! Expected valuations seem to be about double since then.

I don't want to guess your asking prices tbh but it'd be rude to comment without.

NAC £1200+
Windy 2
E2 £2500+
Canary

Big range with those +s. No one would blame you for trying £1800 and £4000.

In the last couple of years there has been an E2 with a non-working monitor sell for £1400 and a really nice one headhunted for about £4000 iirc.

[geldra]

Great, thank you.
