It's a good set. It's a '96 ish version of it, but I don't think transistors have changed much since then.

I wonder what the BIN was.

I doesn't matter now. It's history. Somebody put in the minimum bid and blew that way.

Once the process has begun, there is no way to stop it....

Chadtower......I think we should get a New England groupbuy

No, no, Ed... you've suckered me on that one before.

If you want to learn about arcade machines, this set will teach you how to fix it from the ground up.

If you don't want to buy this one, I suggest you go and get the tape set on Monitor repair from Randy, and a couple more.

I learned a lot using this set. It teaches you just about anything you need to know about arcade machine repairs from the cabinet to the circuit board.

It's over tommorow.

Dude! Only $122?! Those things cost like $500 from the source... that's a hellagreat deal at twice the price!

GGKoul · « **Reply #10 on:** December 21, 2004, 01:58:28 pm »

Let's see what the price is in 2 days.

ChadTower · « **Reply #11 on:** December 21, 2004, 02:02:27 pm »

Either way, keep an eye on it. You don't see these on the secondary market very often.

If anyone is interested, I have these Randy Fromm videos on VHS. They are originals, the quality and production values are ok, but they do have a LOT of information in them. I've watched them all at one time or another and probably won't watch them again. I may put them on ebay after the others sell if no one is interested.

Would you be willing to sell them singly? I'd like the pinball video.

RayB · « **Reply #14 on:** December 22, 2004, 12:32:06 pm »

You guys do know he has alot of that stuff available for free online? Like using a digital multimeter. I guess it's not the same as watching video footage, but still a good start.

It's all here:

Thank god for full website downloading apps...

jmh139 · « **Reply #16 on:** December 22, 2004, 01:09:39 pm »

I don't really want to split them up at this point. Thanks though!

ChadTower · « **Reply #17 on:** December 22, 2004, 04:15:00 pm »

Still $147... I may have to get in on this action at that low a price.

jmh139 · « **Reply #18 on:** December 23, 2004, 08:57:38 pm »

I just posted (forsale group) the ones I have for $225.00 plus shipping. Email me @ maps@leagh.com if anyone is interested.
