spend 40 bucks and rent a uhaul for the day. They are pretty cheap if you drop them off same day to the same location. Also call home depot. They rent trucks also (I don't know if they have millages in their contracts).
Anyway, 2 hours away shouldn't be the issue. You CAN get it... but you will have to pay a bit more. and it will cost MUCH less then just loosing it and buying another.
As for 300 for a cabinet... A little on the pricy side.. But if you like the cabinet and like the sideart. Money comes and goes. Its not a horid price, or a great deal. Its a price that you can be happy with if everything is to your liking. Get it if you want it and can afford it... And dont look at prices again.
As for the 19". The size is better for many original games in mame. Robotron sucks at larger screen sizes (you can't see the entire screen at once... ). I know people who had 25 or 27" screens, and got another one with 19"... then changes all of theirs to 19".
I think 27" screens are only better for fighters. You can only see so much of the screen when sitting that close.
(btw, I have a 27" monitor... but started using artwork for all games that need to be shrunk down)

Jeezuz, if you can't drive and your parents aren't nice enough to drive you to get, it, why did you buy it in the first place? Wouldn't it make sense to find out if you could even GET the game before even considering sending money?
Do you have a dad? Get him involved in the project. That'll make him less annoyed about driving a couple hours to pick up the game.
Surely you asked permission to have a big machine like that in your room/house before you went and bought it, right??

actually my dad was going to drive me up there but his work got in the wasy the day wer where gonna get up there and its been busy for him ever since, other than that my friends who offered backed out at the last minute. So basically it wasnt my fault really.
