LOL.... 4k for this "MOMA" beauty. Sounds like a 60-in-1 Jamma-based cocktail cabinet. I'll admit that the look is nice, but that's about it. And based on what I'm seeing I doubt that's even a real picture.

I'm still new at this but I pity the person that thinks this is worth it. Maybe I'm just not appreciative enough that it was "designed in Germany".

Ugly cocktail is ugly... and insanely priced.

I wanna know how he's getting so manny compliments if he never uses it.

Huh. In buffalo people want to trade ski boats for their overpriced burned in arcade games and or Mame cabinets.
Don't see many cab designed all the way out in Germany in these here parts. Woooohheeee.
You west coasters sure do get fancy.

Will someone build this damn thing for $500 so we can prove it's not worth anywhere near $3k on any market?

Isn't the "company" also out of business?

Nothing says "style" like razor sharp corners everywhere. Looks like South Park's idea of a Canadian arcade machine.

Their cars are supremely overrated but they do make good ovens.

You guys are killin' me

Glad to see that people can joke here!

I prefer a smoother look to the sharp lines but do like seeing something other than black cabinets sometimes.

As for Germany, you can't trust anything that comes from a country that mobs David Hasselhoff.

Met quite a few in the Caribbean that were down there dodging taxes. Didn't seem to be extraordinarily attractive.

Now that is a hijacking!

How do you know I don't have a drone to set after you?

The guy's doing it wrong.

If you want to sell overpriced crap to stupid people you need to do this....

Good point.

Here's my interp: He said "You have no idea the amount of compliments this gets me!" that sounds like a charlatan way of hiding the fact that they're getting little or no compliments.

that price has one too many zeros.
