Quoted from EM-PINMAN:Just keep checking local Craigs List/ auctions/paper and be patient and you will find some EM projects for the right price.

EM project can be found - and can be had from $0 on up. It will generally take much longer to find a specific title. In this (pin) economy even basket case machines tend to start out too high. I've had a couple deals greatly reduced when I decided to walk. The seller decides they wanted it gone more than inflated asking price.
Many will have bg issues. Shay Group is a good source for repro bg for older machines
