WTB: Empty cabinet (Philadelphia PA)
« on: October 20, 2009, 05:16:57 pm »
I'd like to get an empty cabinet to make a MAME machine for a family member- he just moved into his first house. He mentioned he would like to get an arcade machine at some point, so I thought I'd suprise him since he's done so much for me. If anyone has any empty cabinets (doesn't really matter what) please let me know!

Have you tried TNT Amusements?

They're not far from Philly.

Yeah, they don't have any "traditional" ones left. The After Burners would be cool, but it's not really what I'm looking for. TNT Amusements is a great place though- I've gotten stuff from them a few times. I think I've put in close to $50 on their Tron machine- it's definitely a good place.

Still looking for one? I'm still trying to get rid of an APB machine.

If you're still looking, there's a FREE empty Nintendo cab on CL right now in South Jersey: http://southjersey.craigslist.org/zip/1448085948.html
I'd get it, but I don't need another project.

I have an NBA Jam cab if you are still looking. I'm in Mechanicsburg PA 17050, probably about a 2 hour ride. Hand me $25 and we'll load it up.

What style cabinet are you looking for? I have 40 games and I think 5 or 6 are literally empty cabinets. Standard Dynamo, 4 player sized, I have one European one that is really weird. I am sure I can make a deal.
Where's my gold star :P

Hey guys, thanks for all the responses!

@MrTroy- I'll think I'll pass on that APB machine
@Karetaker- I would love an NBA Jam cabinet- think you could hold it for 2 weeks?
@Pinball wizard- any chance you could provide pictures?

Sure I can hold it for two weeks. I'm just really packed in here and need to move some things out.
