Good God, you still haven't sold this thing?
Slap some T-Molding and makeshift marquee on there and that thing will look MUCH more complete.

I have a (cut) 4 player X-Men marquee that would look a whole lot better than that gaping hole, as well as some pretty good condition leather-texture T-Molding I'm pulling off a cab this weekend you can have. Hook me up with the buttons and wiring I didn't get from you last time  ;)

Seriously - it is rough, but let's be tactful about it. In the condition it's in, and with the parts you should be thinking more like $100...

$200 is a seriously good deal. I'm tempted to buy it, and I'm the one who sold him most of what's in it to begin with...too bad I don't have enough cash atm  :banghead:

Hold on there. That's a good cabinet. It's just not worth what he originally was asking. When he said he'd take $200, I started wishing I was still in Houston. I'd have bought it.

$38 for 12 buttons?   You got ripped off.

That said,  at $200...this is a helluva start for someone looking to build a MAME cab...even if it is a cheesy VGA monitor (if you're going to MAME a cab,  use an authentic arcade monitor for crying out loud!).

Do yourself a favor and order some T-molding, and a generic Marquee. Then get a free or super cheap old pc to put in there. Good presentation and having a complete setup could net you much more than $200 on Craigslist for a fully operational MAME cab (sans software and roms of course).

You don't know anyone with a pickup? You're in TEXAS! Do like I did and pay someone you know who has one to drive you over and pick it up.

Surely you know at least one person with a pickup or an SUV that has plenty of room (I just laid my cabinet down in the back of an SUV)

Pay them for their time and gas.

hehe..I HAVE a truck!

My story is basically this...I just recently started getting into BYOAC and I bought a UA2 cabinet from mameroom....I haven't even received it yet.

So I'm not really *wanting* a second cabinet...I just figured this was a good deal and it could sit in my garage until I got around to working on it.  There is a chance though that my one cabinet will be enough and I will get tired of it (not likely, but still a chance).  If that happens then I will have this second cabinet taking up space in my garage and then I will be posting for weeks for someone to come buy it for $200. lol

So I kind of have a "I'll take it if I don't have to do anything" attitude about it.  I'm sure if I had been into the hobby longer it would already be in my garage.  Just worried about dropping $200 on something that will just be a pain in my side later.
