During my high school and college years, I deposited thousands of
quarters and tokens into arcade games.

In 1983 I spent 12 hours at a Chuck E. Cheese getting 4,700,000 on a
Gravitar. I was recently informed by Twin Galaxies that the record
still stands.

This has made me interested in finding a Gravitar machine to keep in
my home. I was also a fanataic for Lady Bug and Space Panic.

What is the best way to go about finding these machines?
What is a fair price to pay?
Are replacement parts and art work still available?

Thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction.

I was just wondering what state you live in?

I have a "as near to mint as I have seen" ;-) game for sale. Game is
perfect, except the control panel overlay is slightly faded (no wear
though). In fact, if you act now, you will not only get the entire
wiring harness, power supply, coin door, monitor, flourescent fixtures,
boardset, marque, control panel (etc, etc.), but I will throw in a FREE
hansome carrying case (cabinet) to house everything in! But wait there
is more, if you act now, FREE assembly of all components is included
(actually it is all original, and never taken apart)! Not convinced?
Worried about the control panel? Well worry no more. Buyer gets a FREE
NOS Gravitar control panel overlay with purchase, guarenteed to get rid
of fading on the current one! :-)

Sorry, I have been up WAY too long.

Seriously, extremely nice, original, dedicated Gravitar with near
perfect side art, marque, control panel (just a bit lighter than usual-
looks like someone "waxed" it), fully working. Complete with manuals,
and extra NOS control panel overlay to make game perfect.

Make a reasonable offer.

Thanks,

Jay

P.S. Congrats on the record, I personally stink at this game... :-)
