Should I? (showcase cabinet Noob)

Well everyone seems to be leaning in the direction i was!

Cheffo, I am from Manitoulin Island, grew up in Espanola, and now reside in the GTA.  So i know who to call on now when i fight to get these cabs into my basement
 ;D

Actually, the brother in law and i shouldn't have any issues, I have a walkout at the back, so aside from a careful romp down my side yard, it's in the patio doors and boom, done!

The Tekken cab seems a little beat up, at least the control panel plexi is... it's been a "home use" cab that was "a hit at BBQ's" so i am sure it will have many cigarette burns and "sticky parts" but i'll probably want to build an all new CP top for it. (to ensure there is LOTS of space between the brother and I!)  The Neo Geo seems good, i don't have a lot of shots of it, but it has been partially restored... I may have to get a new CPO for it, as i really like the white/red stripingon the original.  I played a LOT of Saumarai Shodown in college, so the Neo cab is more for memories than anything else

Thanks for all the info/opinions so far!
CheffoJeffo:
Well, if you are in the GTA and looking for cabs, the Starburst auction is this Saturday at Kipling and Queensway ...

I don't think that I will make it there due to eleventy12 family commitments, although you never can tell since I live about 5 minutes away.



Axe:
Yeah, i was thinking about going, but I have to pick up my Tekken cab in the morning, and have a birthday party in the afternoon :(  Maybe i'll hit the next one, after the missus has a chance to get used to the idea of my home arcade :)
Axe:
Well it looks like the decision isbeing made for me!  The NeoGeo I was considering seems to be a no go, no response from the seller for a few days... so I guess i don't have to make the decision!

So I'll use the money i was going to spend on the second cab to get my parts/accessories faster :)
