Cabinets in Washington state?

Anyone know of a place that sells cabinets here in Washington State? I've done some searching but have come up quite empty handed.

Might want to check Craigslist.com.  I think there are a couple of cabinets that are under $300.  You can also do a search on ebay and limit it to within 50 miles of your zip.  When I just did this there were 4 or 5 machines for under $100.

Good luck.

Over the last few months I have been keeping an eye out for a "great bargain" but haven't seen much activity in the Seattle area.

Yikes! I didn't see the first "s" on craigslist.com at first. Thank goodness I'm on a lab machine and not on my work pc. LOL. I'll have to check craigSlist.com when I get home.

I feel kind of dumb now on my ebay search. I'd been searching "arcade machine" and "arcade cabinet" now when I just do "arcade" I'm getting more stuff. Thanks!

Don't feel dumb. It's the people who refer to one machine as "an arcade" who are dumb.

While I'm at it busting on people, other peeves:

 - cartridges referred to as "tapes"
 - video arcade games referred to as "pinball"

 ;D
NO MORE!!
