Title: FS:My cocktail mame cab, US\CA\Alta loms
Post by: quadrider1 on August 12, 2010, 03:00:11 pm
I just posted that i finished this cab and now parents say it has to go because it takes to much room :cry:
So i put it up on ebay and was just spreading the info on here, Basic head to head cocktail, two 4\8 way joysticks, 6 buttons per person, and player 1 and 2 start. has mala frontend and is shelled.

I didnt want to loose it so soon but it either goes to someone or the trash they said.
Thx

When you're 17, parents only exist to piss you off and compel you to move out.

Don't forget they also pay for college!

Yeah right, my parents didn't pay for my college...   I had to do that myself.  I'll be paying for the next 26 years, lol.

I get the feeling that you always intended to sell this and the "17 years old have have to sell" is good cover for imperfections and may also help you move it with sympathy.  

I cant imagine many parents tossing something out that their son built from scratch and also has some value. What did they think you were going to do with it while you were cobbling it together in the garage?

 Besides you are out of the house in a year, just delay until then.  A Mame Cab at college is great. ...if you thought only high school chics got hot playing Pac Man, just wait till college!

Anyway, good luck selling it!  Try getting rid of a similar sized piece of furniture instead.

After stripping the negativity from the post above, I found this tidbit...

A Mame Cab at college is great. ...if you thought only high school chics got hot playing Pac Man, just wait till college!

And, of course, you built yourself a TABLETOP.  Which, of course, is great for... ...err, you know... ...holding your drink!

 :o ;) ;D
