I've search eBay far and wide and have found nothing under $30 (including shipping). If you've found one for a good price, please post the link here. Thanks for the tips as well :)
By the way, I ordered this one. It's got a long wire, good colour and enough sockets.

Congrats! Good luck! Keep up the posts.
...& thanks for the link to the smart bar. Now I know what that is. :-[

Are you going to use Cabinet plans or draw some up on your own??

I've already got the plans done. I just finished drawing it up on the wood itself and it looks decent. Will post pictures soon!

Here's the creative solution I'm using for power. I found a power supply used in the slim Dell desktops (12v 18A) and the motherboard to match. I removed the socket from the motherboard and soldered it to a terminal strip. This way, I can easily replace the power supply with a matching one if needed. I'll power my speakers, lights and coin mech with this. Nothing fancy but I thought I'd post it.
My computer components have also arrived from newegg. Here's what I bought:
* BIOSTAR A880G+ AM3 AMD 880G HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
* RAIDMAX RX-450K 450W ATX12V Power Supply
* AMD Athlon II X3 450 Rana 3.2GHz Socket AM3 95W Triple-Core Desktop Processor ADX450WFGMBOX
* G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL
