Quoted from lpeters82:I typically try to make a game look decent before selling it. I'm not going to let a bit of dust be the difference between a sale and no sale.
Agreed, doesn't hurt to wipe it down and make it presentable. 15 min. I went to our local arcade auction 2 weeks ago and just can't believe when you drop off a machine you can't at least wipe the glass off.
Quoted from lpeters82:Yep...same thing with calling something an "easy fix" or "cheap fix". I caught myself doing that once with a broken playfield plastic. It didn't bother me, but as I was listing the game for sale I started writing something about how a cheap replacement plastic was available. I realized what I was typing and immediately hit backspace a few times and ordered the plastic. It's not worth going super cheap on a machine that's worth a few thousand dollars.
I know, right?
I even change rubbers, not all, but if it needs them. I even have a giant box of flipper rubbers, just put 2 new one's on. Takes what, 30 seconds?
