This is the same one with the red electrical tape as edging right?  If so just please tell me that the red tape has been replaced with legit T-molding and that we're not fleecing bidders out of $400 bucks for a tape job.  If not I recommend taking the auction down until you at least do that... or reposting with pictures that show those details.  If I bought a project for that amount and it showed up with tape on it I would be livid.

Yea, I call shill bidding on this one already. No way someone would be comfortable bidding that high, that early on a 10 day auction with pictures that ---smurfy---. Starting price was $0.99, but there were never any "testing the waters" low ball bids that every other auction that starts out at that price gets. Just hundred dollar bills flying at it right out of the gates... ::)

You mean you aren't willing to pay 400 clams for a screen 18" wide and only 2" high, a CP with exposed jagged wood and custom super awesome tape-molding, the connoisseur's alternative to the crappy t-molding that all of us use?  I just sold my Wham! cassette collection so I'd have the two grand to snatch this steal up at the BIN price.  I really wish you'd quite ruining this hobby for those of us who can appreciate real art.

must be something in the water around here. Finally a seller I could buy from within an hour of my house and they have no grasp of value.

Also Jakks, while neat, isnt exactly arcade perfect

"Speechless" doesn't even say it... I'd be lucky to get more than 5 bills for my mini Mario Bros. once its finished, and i've got real t-molding... The difference is in the tape, chicks can't resist red electrical tape!

Here we go, the golden nugget:

"...authentic, true version of the original arcade classic!"

"The version of MK that both controllers have is as close to the original classic that you can get without buying a full size arcade cabinet"

So... not true or authentic then, hmm?

No kidding... if you already had 8 bids without free shipping then why throw that in for nothing and take the loss yourself? I pray that nobody puts a legitimate bid on this thing at the insane price it's listed for.

Whoa, I just noticed the sweet flathead screws securing the joysticks to the CP, just what i'd like to catch my palm on mid-fatality!

That's OK, they'll probably be rubbed raw anyway by the lip on the front of that control panel (that I just noticed).

I'm curious, why do some here seem to detest this auction? Is it the audacity of the 'Buy-It-Now' price? The corners cut in the workmanship? Just wonderin'.

All of the above... not to mention, the probable shill bidding that is going on.

A combination of those and the obvious shill bidding going on.

The shame? WWF Wrestlemania has the same 5 button layout as MK and made by midway. Im not gonna get another cab, make the button layout like MK, just for Wrestlemania.

its a complete debacle.  Also, OP deleted his account, so he signed up here to sell that hunk of junk, we bashed it, he left.

As it should be. :lol

It's true, I am jealous.  I'm jealous that this guy can sell this thing for an obscene amount of money and not have any conscience about it.
Some people can rip people off and not bat an eyelash...unfortunately I have that pesky thing called ethics holding me back.  :dunno
