--- Quote from: yotsuya on July 19, 2019, 09:18:38 am ---Yeah, I’d offer $850. How long has that been available? I’d make up my mind ASAP, I know a few guys who own/are opening barcades in the Valley, and if you don’t pull the trigger, they will. Just a friendly heads up. If you do get it, we have a close knit group here in Phoenix that does arcade repair events monthly once the weather cools down. That monitor is probably in need of a cap kit, which we can help you with. --- End quote --- Think it was posted initially on craigslist about a month or two, then on offerup recently. I'm very interested and planning on going to look at it this morning. He's said the lowest he'd go is $1100. How much would it cost for a cap kit, I'd appreciate the help with that too.

Cap kits can be quite cheap, around 20 bucks or so, but bargain hunting isn't really where you want to save money on parts, quality high temp caps can add up fast but even so very nessesary....That's the kind of thing that seller should be talking about, 1100 with monitor issues is top end (IMO) and he knows it, but sometimes it is best to give the price and just get it on the truck, before someone else does. |

Laying it on its back face up is the best way to move it, as it keeps the center of gravity low and reduces rollovers (long story don't ask) Just make sure the key is out of it so it doesn't break off, and the cord doesn't get pinched or damaged...Good luck...Post pics... |

I would recommend not laying it on it's back, if you can't help it. The thing is, there might be loose debris or quarters inside the cabinet, that can get onto your monitor or game PCB causing a short when you power it up. Unless you know the cabinet is completely clear of debris inside, best to keep it upright as possible. If you have a pickup truck, or a can hitch a carry-on trailer, that's the best way to transport standing up. |
