Agreed with all the others, road show plus cash would be fair. I like it alot better and just my opinion but a solid 90s Bally/Williams DMD will be better sale or trade bait down the road anyway than a Stern POTC. I think you're better off with the RS assuming you like the game. I had one for a while and it didn't really get old...I never made it through all 18 modes or whatever in the time I had it. I only played POTC on location but I thought it was boring as hell.

Quoted from jdzwir123:

I agree pirates is boring! He has a very nice roadshow that is in great condition that he put a lot of time and money into what is the way to go about asking for trade plus $. I’ve never really had to deal with that before, I guess that’s a good problem to have on my end.

I've done a few trade plus cash deals (on both sides). Probably a good way is something like I value my game around X dollars and your game around Y dollars so I'd be looking for about Z in cash from you to make up the difference. If he's driving 3 hours to deliver it I'd factor that in as well and I'd (personally) ask for less cash since he's spending his day and gas to bring you a game...you'd both have to decide what thats worth. I'd also ask him what he values the games at and go from there.

I actually just traded my RS plus cash for a NGG. We settled on less cash coming from me because I made the drive from Cleveland to Buffalo...so about the same distance, 3 hours each way and gas.

Quoted from jdzwir123:

That is actually funny you saying that because it was exactly what my thoughts were if I had the color DMD I think I’d be I’d be set.

Ask him to throw in the 400 bucks and call it a day. If it were me I wouldn't buy one and install it for someone if I had to drive them a game...too many unknowns...what if the deal falls apart or the other guy flakes when I get there? Just asking for the DMD money in cash would be way smoother IMO.

Quoted from indybru:

I owned a RS for years and really liked the game. Primary reason I sold it was the linear gameplay the same two modes to start. Mostly taxi cab.
Once I got deeper in the game really enjoyed the less played modes. If this was fixed it would make a big difference in keeping the game.
Good luck.

There is a software update now that randomizes the modes!
