in "mint" condition homers meltdown would probably sell for about £300
but, by claiming "mint conditon", i personally would think this to mean it was more or less new, and had never been sited
you might get a bit less as its such an old machine, and by no means a rarety
i think you would be better off stating it as good condition..
although you mention a fault on the motherboard? this must been its in "fucked condition",
if you mended it, then it would be "reconditioned"
basicly, if its working you might get about 75-150 for it, if its knackered you'd be looking at giving it away for free so that you didnt have to pay to get it sent to the tip
hope this helps?

These things fetch good money because they're Simpsons themed.
Just an idea but if it is truely "mint" (which if privately owned from new is very possible).
Try advertising it more towards Simpsons fans than fruit players.
Reason I say this is that I had a Rocky Horror show (BWB) machine which is worth not-a-lot in fruit machine terms but got LOADS of interest when I advertised it on a RHPS fan site.
Good luck with your sale

also, make sure you specificly ebay it to america and canada, work out how to send it over there before you list it...
try selling it once with a reserve or something
