This seller can't be serious can he.  His asking prices continue to soar whilst the quality of his machines go down.  Buy It Now of $1999.   !!@

This is the equivalent of selling a 30 yo car (with missing parts) for a quarter of a new car price around $10K. Ridiculous and stupid. No one would be foolish to buy from this guy.

Space Station is a pretty good game.. I thoroughly enjoyed the one I had.. CONDTION GREEN!!.. how cool is that?
I picked mine up as a non working project from Mark C several years back.. she fired up straight away and I had her working 100% in about an hour.. was a great pick up!

by the looks of it, he got a heap of projects to unload, makes you wonder why you would bring in a load on junker pins,
 Maybe hes hoarding the good stuff   &&

All straight out of Greece. The economy is in dire straits and the dollar is so low these were picked up very very cheaply. Most rubbish but looks like a couple decent ones.

Bill is a nice fellow, he is not a member here (or active if he has an account). Like all games, need to look carefully, and with projects, have a good feel for what you are taking on to ensure that the cost of restoring does not outweigh any gain when buying cheap.
