$500 for Marvel vs. Capcom cab?

I am looking to buy my first cab and locally I can't find any good deals. The cab of most interest to me that I've found is being offered to me for $500 and since it's local I can pick it up myself to avoid shipping charges. The cab itself is missing the marquee and side panel graphics and the t-moulding looks like it needs to be replaced. The cab is pretty dirty also, so it will need a good cleaning. The game works fine as does the 25" moniter. Is this cab a good deal? The guy told me he was going to fix it up and sell it for around $1000 but if I buy it now as is, he'll sell it for $500. Thanks in advance for your input.

Dont even think about buying that! Your first cab you get should be a project cab, something that wont run you more than $50-100, free even. Please dont spend that money on that MvC conversion cab.   :police:

That is what I call a RIP OFF.

There isn't a fighter cab on earth worth $1000. The machine you described would probably bring $200-$300 at auction, exact price depending on size and condition of monitor.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll definitly stay away then. I've been looking for a cheap project cab for a few months now with no luck. Our local vendors will rather destroy an old cab rather than donate or sell it for cheap. Do any of you guys have suggestions on where I can find one? I'm willing to travel 200 miles to pick it up. I'm in Albuquerque, NM so any cab in or around NM, AZ, CO, or western TX could be worth the trip to me. Thanks again for the comments!

I hate A-hole like this....They rather chop/destroy a cab while someone is willing to pick it up and give some $$ for it......That happened to, I hated that guy so bad that I wanted to go in his location of VIDEO games and just do something stupid to his machine, but I did not want to sink into his level, but after so many months, his place jsut DIED and close DOWN....maybe he did not know how to do business, hence he destroy rather than sell.....GOOD FOR YOU......

Enough of my ranting...anyway, just hang in there, there will be a cab for $25.00 or $50.00 you can grab...
