Give this the Joust/Robotron treatment!  You can still add a BitKit or Mister but just limit the game list to Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, Jr. Pac-Man, Frogger, Nibbler and other similar joystick-only games...

I read that as you don't think its worth that much.  I just have no idea what "too much" means to everyone.

That is not what I meant, you are reading too much into it. I just meant that I hope you think you got good or fair value. I have no real idea of what "too much" is either, you are the only person that can answer that question.

The whole comment was meant to be generally positive. I wish I could find a classic cab like that close to me and at a reasonable price.

It is also usually safe to ignore comments that it doesn't mean anything, as those comments themselves have little meaning.

From Zebidee I wouldn't assume it was a jab!

Out here that cabinet would probably cost you $3k.
There aren't any left.

I cringe to think of how many went to the Waimanalo Gulch before I became obsessed with arcade cabinets.

I imagine Zebidee's post was more the "hope you didn't have to pay too much (for your own sake!) to own a piece of history" kind of sentiment.
Zebidee:
Cabs like that don't even exist in my part of the world, AFAIK. Therefore = priceless

You guys are not really missing much, Most of those cabs old as they are have lived a long hard life, when you play them hard, or move them the joints creak from old age and dry rot, This one seems to be a really nice surviver however, and is always fun to see  one in any condition...You can make replicas nowadays from CNC files, they are actually really good as far as dimensions go.
