Cocktail Arcade Machine Auctions: A Guide for Enthusiasts

Cocktail arcade machines, with their iconic table-top design, are a nostalgic staple for retro gaming fans. These compact, sit-down cabinets, popularised in the 1980s, allow two players to face each other while enjoying classics like Pac-Man, Space Invaders, or Donkey Kong. If you’re looking to own one, auctions are a great place to find both vintage originals and modern reproductions. Here’s a guide to navigating cocktail arcade machine auctions in the UK, along with key information to help you bid confidently.

Why Choose a Cocktail Arcade Machine?

• Space-Saving Design: Unlike upright cabinets, cocktail machines double as a table, making them ideal for smaller spaces like home game rooms or pubs.
• Two-Player Setup: The opposing seating arrangement creates a social, head-to-head gaming experience.
• Retro Aesthetic: Their sleek, glass-topped design is a conversation piece, blending functionality with vintage charm.
• Versatility: Modern reproductions often include multiple games (via multi-cade boards), while originals appeal to collectors for authenticity.

What to Know Before Bidding

1. Condition is Key:
   • Original vs. Refurbished: Original machines (e.g., Taito or Midway models) are prized for authenticity but may need repairs. Refurbished units often have updated internals for reliability.
   • Check Components: Ensure the CRT monitor (or LCD in modern units), joystick, buttons, and sound work properly. Replacement parts for vintage machines can be costly (£50–£200 for a CRT alone).
   • Cabinet Condition: Look for scratches, water damage, or cracked glass. Minor cosmetic flaws are common, but major damage affects value.
2. Pricing:
   • Vintage Machines: Fully working originals typically fetch £500–£1,500, depending on rarity and condition. Rare titles like Defender can go higher.
   • Modern Reproductions: These range from £800–£2,000, often featuring 60–400 games via multi-cade boards.
   • Restoration Costs: Budget £100–£500 for repairs if buying a fixer-upper.
3. Authenticity:
   • Verify the machine’s make and model. Popular brands include Taito, Midway, and Atari.
   • Check for original artwork, control panels, and serial numbers to confirm it’s not a Frankenstein build (cobbled together from mismatched parts).
4. Auction Tips:
   • Research the Auction House: Reputable UK auctioneers like BPI Auctions or John Pye Auctions often list arcade machines. Check their reputation on platforms like Trustpilot.
   • Inspect Before Bidding: Attend preview days or request detailed photos/videos. Faulty machines can be a money pit.
   • Set a Budget: Factor in delivery costs (£50–£150 for UK shipping) and potential repairs.
   • Online Auctions: Platforms like eBay or Arcade Archive UK host listings, but beware of vague descriptions or untested units.
5. Power Requirements:
   • Vintage machines may require a step-down transformer for UK 240V outlets. Modern units are typically compatible but confirm before bidding.

Where to Find Auctions

• Online: eBay, Arcade Archive UK, and general auction sites like The Saleroom often list cocktail machines.
• Specialist Arcade Retailers: Companies like Liberty Games or Home Leisure Direct occasionally auction refurbished units.
• Local Auction Houses: Check regional auctioneers, especially those specialising in antiques or collectables, as machines sometimes appear in estate sales.

Maintenance Tips

• Cleaning: Use glass cleaner for the top and isopropyl alcohol for controls. Avoid water near electronics.
• Storage: Keep in a dry, temperature-controlled environment to prevent wood warping or monitor issues.
• Upgrades: Consider LED lighting (£20–£50) or a multi-cade board (£100–£300) to enhance functionality without sacrificing authenticity.

Final Thoughts

Cocktail arcade machines are a fantastic blend of nostalgia and functionality, perfect for collectors or casual gamers. Auctions offer a chance to snag a bargain, but thorough research and inspection are crucial. Whether you’re after a pristine Galaga cabinet or a versatile multi-game unit, set a budget, verify condition, and enjoy the thrill of the bid. Happy hunting!
