I tried in vain to get the seller to answer some simple questions about
an Arkanoid conversion (Tempest cabinet) and the requests went
unanswered. He'll not be seeing any of my cash anytime soon and he's
local too.

ass..

He was selling a Zaxxon and Time Pilot in the same auction last week.
Neither came with a monitor, and the Zaxxon was apparently "in rough
shape". I asked if he would pull the CP's, PCB's and marquees from both
and ship them to me and shove the cabs wherever he wanted. He declined
and probably got a lot less than he could have as a result. I think
both went for less than $65 together.

sometimes the time to take apart the parts, find a box and packing, and
shippigng it isnt in the sellers best interest.
its easier to sell it as a whole, have someone pick it up and its done.
time sometimes is more important than money. it works that way 4 me
too.
now of course if it was a large dollar difference ($500 or more) then
sure, take the time to part it out. etc
