--- Quote from: shmokes on October 31, 2004, 10:07:52 pm ---Hey 1up, Can you describe the mechanism you used for axle? I've been building a PacMamea inspired cab for more than a year (every time school starts work stops completely for the next five months). I'm getting really pretty close to completion, but I've been dying to find out how you manage the rotation of the CPs in your retail product. --- End quote --- I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you... 8) |

I've only been to Vegas a few times, but that gambling bug is a lot stronger than any impulse game-buying spree I've ever been on. Anyway, I'm not trying to attack your family or anything, I'm just trying to prove a point. Everything costs much more than the materials and labor are worth. No business is exempt, or there would be no such thing as profit. Everything is only worth what people are willing to pay for it. Nuff said. --- Quote ---yes the ps2, xbox, ect all costs 300 when they came out.. they were also first gen, new hardware that wasent cheap to find or produce.. its older now and parts are cheaper to make, thus price dropping.. in fact, now, an xbox or ps2 costs MORE to make than they get sold for.. --- End quote --- Ok, I picked a bad example. It is a well known fact that console manufacturers intentionally lose money on their hardware. The hardware is there to sell the software, where the real money is. So it all balances out. --- End quote --- i personally know more people who spend MORE money on ebay, games, ect than i do people who have gambling problems.. and games are 50 bucks, takes millions to make, takes TONS of copys to even break even for the devs.. video games are kind of a bad example all around.. |

This F'ing thread is getting out of hand!!!!!!!! I'm here to get info on these cabs that look sweet, not read a bunch of whiners complain about prices. If you can't afford it or think it's too expensive, maybe don't post or post once and state your opinion and then press on, damn! 1up, I do have some questions: 1. The kits will or will not have have the artwork and ipacs and what not? 2. The price does or does not include the shipping? 3. When will we know more? Everything sounds sweet so far man, keep up the good work! |

I have a used SPIT Cup. Anyone want to take this of my hands for $5.00 shipped ? I guess my pojnt is, no matter what you sell and how much you sell it for, if you have a buyer that is willing to pay for that product, so be it. Now for my spit cup, maybe alot or of all of you here might not want to buy it, but who knows, maybe someone out there will. Just have hopes and best of luck Iup. |

The control panel section will be pre-built, but all else requires assembly by the customer, using included screws and cams. 2. Shipping is extra. 3. I will release more details in the next 2-3 weeks. By this time I also plan to set a firm price and start taking orders. Full specs of both units, and actual photos of the prototypes will be available on the website before ordering begins. Sorry to keep you all in the dark, but I am still dealing with patents, trademarks etc, so I am limited in what I can reveal at this time. |
