Would it be a sin to Mame a Joust cocktail?

If you paid for it, then it would be yours. If somebody else wanted it, they could buy it too.

Once it is yours, what you do with it in the privacy of your own home is your business.

There are those that don't want to buy it, but DO want to tell you what to do with it if YOU buy it.

Screw them.

Honestly, even when I make a cab from scratch, I make it a point to buy a restored unit and jig-saw gut it for no reason and dump it in the ditch.

In fact, I purchased a fully working Gondomania, and melted the marquee in the microwave, just to have the image you see in my sig file! Then I torched the rest of the machine, and peed on the ashes.
I mean, I paid for it, so what the hell, right?

Look, Paul McCartney SHOULD have purchased the rights to the Beatles music. He didn't. Whacko Jacko did. Do I agree with that? What does it matter if I agree? We live in a free market. If there were so many people that wanted that Joust cab in its original form, it wouldn't still be for sale.

LOL If that was the answer you wanted, I can only offer it in jest.

Hoagie, You're acting as if you could get this cab cheap. Well, you won't. First of all, it's a high-demand cocktail table. Secondly, look at the BUY IT NOW price. ($999). Second, there's a reserve. What makes you think you'd get this at a bargain price???

Keep looking...
Magnet_Eye:
Holy Crap! That's a nice one! I can't believe you actually considered buying it to MAME it! You should be ashamed of yourself.  >:(

Build one just like it instead. I seem to recall someone did just that a while back and posted in the Project Announcements forum...

There are about 4 or 5 different black and white cocktails that are VERY similar. Much better choices since largely black and white games tend to be DEAD, missing the board, and otherwise in mint condition.


I passed on one of those suckers at $350 last auction. They are big old space hogs.

Maybe so, but IMO they are hands down the best looking cocktail cab ever.
