I was checking Craiglist and I came across this ad...
http://raleigh.craigslist.org/for/1302740412.html

I emailed the guy and this is what all transpired....

(ME) : Hey, saw your ad on Craiglist…can you describe more? Are these broken cabs or what? I saw where you said “Great for Mame” ..I know me and a couple of friends might be interested…

(Seller) : Hello,
These are totally empty cabinets. Stripped out. No monitors, etc. I have one coctail cabinet and the rest are uprights. Thanks.

(ME): How much are you asking for them? I can spread the word around…I know a friend who might get one …plus I thought about getting an empty  for my next Mame project

(Seller) : Hello,
 The one cocktail cabinet I have is $200 complete with the monitor.No PCB. The arcade uprigjhts start at $150.

WTF! :soapbox:

At first I thought, Did I confuse him? Is this guy for real? I did say broken? He did say stripped? :blowup:

One thing I learned from The Road Warrior....

Uh, dude, you're making a huge deal out of very little.  His price on some empty cabs is a little high.  There's nothing else to see here.

Sounds like an op who is looking to offload some trash. Don't expect him to go out of his way.

hahah Sorry if I seem "Hyped-up"..too much coffee this morning...
But on a serious note...What is the average price of empty cabs?...I've seen empty cabs sell for about 20 bucks...Common sense tells me something wrong when i can buy a working MK3 for 300 and then see an empty cab for 150 and up?
ChadTower:

Depending on what was originally in it, free to $100, or maybe a little more for an A list cabinet in great shape.  Usually $25-50 for a generic empty to someone walking in off the street.
