Of course this is contingent on the shape of the ramps.
I thought Genesis goes for more than 600-800, but I think you really need more pics to get accurate feedback on pricing.
I sold mine to my sister for 700. I screwed her over cause she was family. She loves it and won't sell it.
Wow. Nice ramps. $700 or so. Great game! Love mine.

Quoted from scarppy:I guess the score board is not working? What could it be?
Really hard to say.
Power.
Connection between MPU and display.
The glass tubes don't fail very often...I've never seen one fail.
The 3 big ICs on the display board do fail, but that seems rare too. Good thing. They are nearly unobtainium.

Quoted from scarppy:Is it worth 300 if the display is not working and may need board work?
Yes!

Yes
Quoted from pinmister:Ramps are the biggest deal. Cannot find originals and not sure if the aftermarket ones are still available.
PB Resource doesn't carry these ramps? I would have thought they would have them, but never checked with them.

Nope... Probably one of the the first things he sold out on.
I know at one time, Steve was contemplating on re-running these again - guess that's in limbo.
Quoted from scarppy:Is there anything else to look for other than ramps?
From the looks of it, no. It has nice ramps and the pf looks good as does the cab from the pics. You can't get ramps and if the pf was trashed it wouldn't be worth fixing. If you get it in the $300 range after fixing the issues you should still be in pretty good shape. I know I would have already bought it.
That is a very good deal on a Genesis. I have had 3 of them over the years and its a great game. Pic of my last restore is below. The lit pop bumpers go great on this game.006 (3).JPG
The first thing I would do is pull the ramps and see if you can find someone to use them as a model to make some repros.
And the second thing is to either make them yourself or find someone to make some ramp protectors for it.
^^ I never thought I would say this about any Genesis machine, but that is a BEAUTIFUL looking restored one prowlerman99! ^^ Love the custom art all around as well as the electric blue ramps. Looks like a completely different game. Nice work!
