Did I get a good deal?
« on: September 28, 2016, 01:03:46 am »
I bought this gutted cabinet off Craigslist for $60, the bottom has a bit of water damage and the back also needs work. Other than that it's in fairly good condition.

I'm going to convert it into a jamma 60 in 1 multicade. Was it a good deal for the cabinet?

On a side note, does anyone have an idea of what this cab was originally? The guy I bought it from thought it was something from midway

For $60, it's got good bones. You done good. But I don't think it was a Midway.

Looks like it is a Sega cabinet. Maybe a Pengo or something in a former life.  $60 is a good deal for sure if it's solid.

looks like a pengo to me too (first cab I ever owned!)

You paid a fair price.
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.
