I'm sure Peale will yell at me and move this to the Buy/Sell/Trade forum, but I thought it should get top billing in the main forum for at least a bit...

I saw this ad on Craigslist and would normally horde this kind of stuff for myself, but I'm going out of town and won't be able to pick this up. 

If you live in So Cal, get this ASAP.

I emailed the guy tonight and it is still available.

I guess we really are crazy in LA.  It's either a $1200 Galaga or a free SlikStik.  Go figure.  :dunno

I left him a message an hour after he posted on Craigslist and told him I could pick it up today, but I never heard back from him.  I just sent him a email asking him about it, so we'll see what happens.

Sweet, I just got a call from him.  Apparently someone was going to pick it up last night, but they never showed, so I was next on the list.  I'll be heading down later today to pick it up   ;D

I still have a quasicon control panel I bought a while back sitting in a box because I never got around to building a cabinet for it.  Now it looks like I don't have to.   :cheers:

Lucky, lucky, lucky. You totally owe Zeno a case of his favorite beverage. ;)

Congrats!

Well, I originally called the guy a couple hours before Zeno posted, but since the guy told Zeno it was still available (which must of been because the first person didn't get it), he is responsible for me emailing him again.  So Zeno, if your every in the neighborhood, feel free to stop by and enjoy some gaming and drinking  ;D

Glad I could help someone out on this.

The forum has helped me out more then I can repay.

But... I better not see this thing on Craigslist in a week for $700!!

Well I just got back.  Overall the cab is in pretty good condition with only a couple of issues.  The plastic siding is coming off on one side, so that will need to be glued back down, and apparently the monitor doesn't work.  Its a wells-garner monitor and according to him it just needs a fuse replaced.  Other then that, its in very good condition  :)  It has all 4 coin mechs, marquee with a light, and speakers.  The keyboard tray seems to be a little gummed up, but thats an easy fix.

Apparently the reason he doesn't want it anymore is because he took the control panel and computer off, connected them to a plasma screen and made sort of a showcase type setup.
