For $200, it should be fully functional with a good screen. The cut corner CP is a nice plus. It isn't a barn-burner deal, but if not many deals pop up in your area, it isn't bad.

If working ok you could pull the capcom CPS2 and sell it and the cartridges on ebay for close to the price he wants for the cab.   You might end up paying $50 if you sold off the game parts.   

Go for it.

if its that close to your house i would ask them if you could drop by to check it out before you bid.   the fact that it has what appears to be an extension cord on the ground right next to it but it is not powered on makes me think it might have a problem. 


i wonder if there is side art hiding under that black paint.

Doubt it. It's just a generic dynamo cabinet. I have the same cabinet minus the cut corner CP. Probably has a WG k4xxx 19" monitor in it. Definitely go look at it. You may be able to just buy it from the guy and bypass the ebay listing. I've done that before. As they say, a bird in hand is worth 2 in the bush. :cheers:
