Looks like a lot of junk unfortunately.
I once bought a load of about 40 EM and early digital games for good money, we paid around $400 a machine (and this was like a dozen years ago). But they were good titles in good shape and almost zero crap (there were a few Chi Coin games but even those were nice).
You are always gonna get some gems and some stuff you don't want in a package deal but this one ain't worth spending big money. Plus the move will be murder.
Quoted from Methos:The people who tell you it isn't worth much are those that want to profit from it.
Just like containers. The same folks who do them, say they don't make money on it.
LMAO yeah right. Then YOU go buy this load for $12,500 an get rich off it.
Look at the titles listed, even if the games weren't toast - which looks highly dubious based on the photos - there are very few sought after titles in there. Most are woodrails and the woodie market is in the shitter, well off its peak from 10-15 years back.
And even best case these games will need a ton of work, plus the moving, plus the storage. Ain't nobody getting rich off EMs these days, we are just offering advice. Part of the hobby, once you've been in it for a while, is knowing when to walk away.
When I started out I'd buy almost anything and most people are the same way, as you go on you get a bit more selective.
Quoted from Shapeshifter:These belong to Jack, right?
They have been listed sooooo many times on mr pinball over the years.
Condition is king with old games and don't think these games are in that good a condition.
Plus each game probably needs a 100 hours work and more cash to make decent so think very carefully!!
Oh Christ Jack Koch? The cincy hoarder?
STAY AWAY.
STAY AWAY.
STAY AWAY.
been around forever trying to peddle garbage at top cost. Trail of unhappy deals.
You newbies scoff at us RGP old-timers but we have long memories...
