$200 or just download it with a mame emulator. Not that I have done that or condone it. ;)

Arcade gaming consoles are worth close to nothing. I'm sure the desired G.I. Joe arcade game can be downloaded on to your laptop and then played on your LCD TV via usb link. That would save you a world of trouble and also there is no saying how long the vintage Arcade console will last without needing serious repairs to the motherboard. Is there a way for you to test drive the console before buying it? If not I wouldn't trust it...

If it is in good shape and there is little or no screen burn, I wouldn't go over $500 for it. $200-$400 would be a fair price.

Seriously, my brother buys these things and tries to fix them and sometimes they are a pain to refurbish. The buttons, screen, coin counter etc all start to go out and it costs way too much. If you just want the game see my previous post. Just google and you can find out everything. Purely hypothetical; but if I had a MAME emulator and I was technologically inadvanced, I am sure I could probably figure it out pretty easily.
