Pacman Arcade Cabinet Auction

Another prized eBay auction is taking place, this time it's a Pacman Arcade Cabinet which was originally hosted at Blitz Games and regularly used by the Oliver Twins!  The bids are already escallating beyond £400.

The seller commented on eBay about the current state of the cabinet:

...It's always been treated well, although there's some scuffing around the base from when it's been moved occasionally. And the left wall, is worn from people holding there, while playing with their right hand!  (see photos for full condition) Waring: It stopped working recently.   I believe it is the CRT screen,  and fairly easy for someone to fix, who is used to fixing old CRT's.   The screen had slight burn in, and I've been debating whether to repair the tube as is. Or get a tube from another arcade machine, that has absolutely no burn in, To restore to full former glory...

Whilst the seller has requested it be picked up in person he has added that he may be able to arrange for transport if the winner doesn't live too far away from Warwick.
