Original NBA Jam On Craigslist
« on: January 15, 2009, 06:21:31 pm »
Went searching for arcades on Craigslist a couple days ago and came across this great condition original NBA Jam. After getting it home and examining it, it turns out the power supply is bad, but that's no big deal. The monitor and everything else works fine. Best part about this, it only cost me $150. Awesome deal in my opinion. Here are some pics. (Lots of interesting finds inside the machine)

Excellent deal !!

Would have been hard to not jump on that one.
(but then again I really like the competition of NBA JAM)

That is a good deal.  There's at least $30 worth of rat droppings in there!  ;D

Well, I got it all restored. Installed a new power supply, touched up all the side art scuffs, and cleaned the cab inside and out. The monitor is the original Hanatrex and it looks amazing. I really can't stress how lucky I got that this was only $150.....
