Whats with that thing it dont have a control panel, i suppose you could fit one and tidy it up.

$150 seems okay to me but your going to have to pay more to get it to a decent standard

i'd be surprised if this guy built it... if so, he was going to build a proper cab and completely gave up on it! looks like something that would be made by Hotrod or one of those control sellers.. for someone who actually has one of those controllers they could lay on it, it's not a bad deal (the computer gear alone is worth around $100?)

 :dunno  Could that be considered a franken-panel?  That is  an inetresting concept though, arcade bunk beds...  I like it.

That's a pretty good cab for the price. Well built, decent specs, etc. The only downside is that it has no control panel.  :dunno

Kind of reminds me of that thing on crapMAME, the really good cabinet with a shelf for an x-arcade stick. I mean come on, at least integrate the x-arcade.
