Best Place to buy an Upright Cabinet and Arcade Parts in Northern NJ
« on: February 21, 2011, 10:03:52 pm »
Hi,

I've decided that I want to get started getting my very own upright arcade cabinet and run MAME on it.  Not very handy with the woodworking however so I'm looking to buy an upright arcade that's already assembled or a kit (basically something that's extremely simple to work with).  Again I live in Northern NJ so if anyone has any suggestions of a place that I should contact please don't hesitate to give me a suggestion.   

Thanks,

awesomesauce22

your best off to start looking on craigslist and ebay (limit by mileage).
Start looking around and find out where the coin-op distributors are in your area. Those guys usually sell old cabinets.

The best place to buy one is from someone who wants it outta thier garage/basement and doesn't think its a goldmine in terms of value.
