I don't know 100% for sure it seems like it was basically geared as a pacman machine it was stout , tall and but not the same as the ones that came out as video games , but it did not seem to have other games on it although I was not looking for sure . Of course I can't go see it they were all gone so next time I go I will dig a little deeper to see if they were moved possibly . I really suck at Pac Man so spending 700 on it was not justified for me , although It seemed worth it if you really like that game and are good at it , maybe .

Good Times , the good ole days !

I went and tried to look and find , to no avail for 249.00 for the arcade game .Maybe it would be perfect for my needs also .

I paid like a little under 160.00 which includes tax money in 2019 , for my Asteroids Arcade 1Up. I used money saved from my Mom's birthday money and Christmas money for a couple years I figured if I saved it and waited for it to go on sale I would get it as long as I was only using the Money gifted to me . So after going to check out Asteroids on Walmart last night I ran into it for a grand the exact same one here . https://www.walmart.com/ip/Arcade1Up-Asteroids-Arcade-Machine-4ft/828150107?from=/search If I have time I will take a picture of the playing part of it as it has been extremely used very well .

I just played a Pac Man at Costco like 6 or 7 times getting killed every time it felt like the original and stood just as tall as I remember . They wanted around 600 for it and when I went back a few days later they were all gone , I was surprised . Not that I was buying it ,just surprised they were all gone . Now i am gonna go search Ebay did I miss out on the new flip .

Asteroids costs me nothing now its free but yeah for a quarter fill it with ships so I could let some stand in play it for me so I could rest my eyes for 5 minutes

Where is my phaser gun ? I need it now .

Kinda but maybe not really ,but kinda .

per PM

Unbelievable , not that it is right but sometimes they hit a wrong button however that happens and shows something completely different . I wonder how much mike can help you since its in the postal service possession .

I definitely don't as to when Comiclink does it right , horizontally right , I have never had a problem .

Not that I don't think Comiclink doesn't do a good job of protecting but dang I have sent up to 10 books from minor cracks books stacked in a box vertical . This being from 3 boxes 1 used with three books to a envelope method with peanuts which those came out good the other 2 boxes were like something you would receive from CGC .

I have turned my attention more to GA then before , so yeah very cool books out there and definitely fewer .

Yeah extreme newton rings is highly not desirable but if the book is graded and in great order and in CGC 9.8 it still has that value .

To add even more clarity or less , some collectors are still not happy if the case has a slight scratch , blemish , slight crack on the side of the case while the book is in perfect order and no event has happened to the book . very crazy to me . As they are more worried about the case of course unless something happens to the book . Sometimes I think Twilight Zone is relevant .

I am with you in this regard , of course if its not CGC 9.8 a person can't sell it for the money its worth . That is where the problem lies its more about money then it is about the books and being happy looking at them in mylar .

I did greatest decision ever !

I know everybody and their brother seems to think pressing is the new norm except for me its not .I have tried to press something that is pretty wavy but not to try and go from say a 9.0 to a 9.6 or 9.8 I know it seems cool and its all about the money you can make . My question is what will be the real consequences if any say 40 to 50 years from the day it was pressed ? The unknown damage if any ? Thanks !

4.0 4.5 Nice pages brings it up possibly for me , nice back also compared to front .

Thanks everyone for your participation ! I sometimes feel I need a gut check so you guys gave me one ! Of course in hand is always best but it has been proven many times you can grade with scans and pics on this board . My personal grade of the book I called it a 9.4 and felt it to be a solid 9.4 although as we all know CGC Grades are comprised from 3 graders so for example if 1 grader is at 9.2 another 9.4 and the other at 9.6 ,we get 3 different grades which would make the book come in at 9.4 as the average so with that book being graded a 9.4 only 1 grader is technically correct with the other 2 missing the grade completely .Of course say 2 graders gave it a 9.4 and 1 a 9.6 the book gets the 9.4 which is the overall average closer to the 9.4 . Of course withe 7.5 6.5 8.5 it must have a possible different formula possibly although unknown to me for exactness . I just wanted to see and say Thanks to everyone that gave a grade !
