Greetings.

I'm looking to part with some of my collection. The following are all
very nice pieces that I've saved of the 60 or so games that have passed
through my hands.
I've included a brief note on condition for each, and I have pictures
available for most of them. If you're interested e-mail for a more
thorough description as well as some pictures if they are available.

I'm located in Northern Virginia about 20 minutes from DC. I prefer that
these be picked up, but I'm willing to consider shipping. I live about 15
minutes from Dulles Airport which Forward Air ships out of. To find out
if Forward Air ships near you got to:
"http://www.geocities.com/Yosemite/6996/forwardair.html". I haven't used
Forward Air yet, but I understand they are cheap and reliable. Buyer is
responsible for all shipping costs, risks, and responsibilities, and I
would need to be paid up front before I shipped anything.

Quantity discounts available and preference is given to local
buyers/people who can pick up soon.

Missile Command upright - B+ condition - $350

Toobin' upright - A condition - $400

Dig Dug cabaret - A- condition - sharp, bright 19" monitor - $300

Battlezone cabaret - A condition - joints on monitor transistors could use
some re-soldering - $300

PacMania - B condition - cosmetically great except for the sideart -
monitor needs some tweaking, it has a nice sharp picture but is missing
deflection on about 1 inch on the left side of the screen, doesn't have
any effect on gameplay, I just suck with monitors - $350

SPACE ACE DEDICATED - A condition - this is NOT a Dragon's Lair conversion
- it's in the rare dedicated cabinet - the only other one I've seen of
these was at Videotopia - sideart is 100%, games plays great, and the
cabinet is beautiful - $900

Food Fight upright - A condition - cabinet in beautiful shape - $400

Dragon's Lair/Space Ace/Thayer's Quest setup - A- condition - cabinet is
Dragon's Lair - sideart 100% on one side, 95% on the other - LD player
works great - has switch mounted on the board to choose either Dragon's
Lair or Space Ace ROMs - flip the switch, swap discs and you have a new
game - this setup includes: Dragon's Lair game as described, Space Ace
disc, Space Ace control panel, Thayer's Quest disc, Thayer's Quest board
set (tested working), almost perfect Thayer's Quest control panel (has
wear on one key), Thayer's Quest marquee, and manuals. You can play all
of these classic LD games out of one cabinet. I don't want to separate at
this time, but will in the future or if the right deal comes along. (I
think the DL stuff is worth $750, SA & TQ stuff $450) $1200

Budweiser Tapper upright - B+ condition - cabinet in great shape, beer
holders have been recently re-bronzed, game plays great but has a bad
filter cap or grounding problem because there is an audible "hum" and very
light "hum bars" on the screen $550

Like I said, I got these games thinking that I would hang on to them as
cornerstones of my collection, time, space, and money just aren't allowing
me to do that right now.

Thanks,
Chris Chatman
