Cape Cod Coin-op Warehouse Raid - NEAC Style

My girlfriend and I got up at the crack of dawn this morning to meet up with some other members from the New England Arcade Collectors group to check out a warehouse that was run by Dan, a very nice gentleman who has been in the arcade business for close to 40 years. Dan is sizing down his warehouse space and was looking to sell of some of his stock, so my fellow coin-op enthusiasts ran down to see what was available. Dan is a stand up guy and was very gracious. Some of the folks from the group got some great deals. I just went along for the ride as I am saving my money for a special surprise (stay tuned for more details on that soon). This was the second of hopefully three runs to this warehouse. Check out the pics below to see what we found.

I'm just curious but what do arcade games like those above cost? Like the Golden Axe one for instance. Is there a website that lists approximate pricing for stuff like that?(I'd love to know what Ikari Warriors cost for instance).

KLOV is the best place to go for classic coin-op info. Just tread lightly when in the forums there. Some of the natives can be a bit testy. :)

NBA Jam TE..niiice. I was hoping to see "Tales from the Crypt" pinball machine. That's one of the best pinball games ever. I've been tinkering around with the idea of building my own stand up unit using emulators and a cheap pc. Gotta redo the ceiling in my basement first though. :)
