Does anyone know a good place that I can get an idea of how much my "old-school" stand up Donky Kong arcade game is worth?

A friend of a co-worker builds and sells these things. He apparently puts 1000's of old school games on one stand up machine. I think his go for 2k-3k.

I'd imagine it has a lot to do with when yours was made and what condition it is in. I agree that ebay is probably a good idea, although i'm sure there is a trade magazine out there that gives prices.

thanks guys. The DK I have is in pretty good shape. Only issue is that one of the DK stickers on the side is coming off, but I have a new one to replace it. I'm not really looking to sell it, but was just curious if anyone had an idea of what it might be worth. Thanks for the info though.

This may be the best time to sell for awhile. With the movie hitting DVD, popularity in DK is a bit higher than normal. Seems to me the classic era machines (PacMan, DK, etc.) were really high during the late 90s early 00s. They've started dropping a bit since. Having all the other options out there nowdays doesn't help either. Mame cabinets with all the classic roms is hurting classic era machines at least a bit.

Myself, I'd love to have a Ms. Pac Man machine at the house. Almost had one for about $350 a year ago but it didn't work out.

If you live in knoxville I heard that on the radio they are having a auction on hundreds of stand up arcade machines saturday.
