Is this a good deal?
« on: October 06, 2003, 10:46:53 pm »
I was wondering if this auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3246109558&category=13716 is a good deal?  I live near it, so it'd be very easy to pick up.  I'm probably not going to buy it, just wondering...  

I was thinking even just for the monitor, that's a pretty good deal.

Hop on that bad boy right now. That is one of the best JAMMA cabinets around. I would be using Buy it Now if I were you.
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

I don't even really want it(well I do, but I don't have the money!).  Do you think I could make more than that much money back for it if I bought it?

Yes, but that is not an instant turn around item. You just can't expect to resell it at a profit in one weekend.

If you really want it, then "Buy it Now" and then delay your pickup/payment by 2 weeks, which should give you enough time to come up with the money (assuming you are not a teenager/college student).

DOH!
He's still in High School...
It would probably not be very easy to scrape up $350 in a few days/weeks...

But if you can beg borrow & steal to get the money, then do it!(Well... Don't really steal, but you know what I'm sayin)
Those are great little cabinets that you could drop in just about any JAMMA standard game in. (i.e. most games since the mid 80s I believe)

Oh well...
I'm not a freak!...
Oh wait...
Yes I am...

Arcade Infinity also sells that cabinet for $350, but i dont know if they have any in stock.  You may want to check them out, they have better cabinets than the neo candy for around the same price.  Unless of course Run & Gun 1 and 2 are important to you.
