Hi all!

I purchased a 29" Candy Cab brand new a year ago, and have to make some room in my new house.  It's a Xiong Ba (Macrown) w/ 29" 15/24kHz CRT and 2P 12Button CP sit-down cabinet!  I would personally replace the joysticks and button with your weapons of choice, as the default ones are a bit lower quality than Sanwa/Seimitsu.  I have all of the original vinyl stickers for the sides and all panels (though for some reason they say the monitor is tri-sync), all keys, JAMMA harness (already wired), power supply, and a coin bucket.  An outlet adaptor is included.  The only thing missing is a coinmech.

The "minor monitor work" is a replacement of the monitor board and installing an isolation transformer.  I already have the replacement monitor board and the isolation transformer.  Basically the cabinet worked perfectly for a couple seconds when it arrived, and then the monitor suffered from horizontal collapse.  Replacement parts were sent to fix the issue, and I have just not gotten around to installing them.

I'm installing the parts this weekend (or if you love to tinker, you can request to do it yourself), and running a full check on the machine specifically testing with an ArcadeVGA/JPAC combo (not included).  It has some light smudges from shipping that a Mr. Clean magic eraser will take care of.

I'm asking for 550$, as I've shipped it around a few times (Tried to sell this in the midwest, buyer fell through).  It was purchased for 1000$.  Pickup is preferred, though if you want to shell out the ridiculous cost of shipping and someone to load the thing in a truck then feel free.

holy crap. I live in VB too. I just bought a candy cab from a guy in florida. I had to ship it up here (total price with shipping though was only about $550, so I got a good deal). It's too bad though, because it would have been so easy to buy one locally. What are the odds???

What part of VB do you live in?

Machine is still available.  Dropping price to 450$ as is.  Diagnosed with epilepsy and need to the money.  :-[

I realize you may still be pissed about me backing out on this. I still feel bad about that... I'm a member over at Shmups forum and I can put up a thread with a link to your cab if you want. It doesn't tate, so it may not get a ton of interest, but it's possible someone still might be interested. Let me know, or you can tell me to go to hell.
