Title: WTB: Ceronix 1492 tube or compatible 13" monitor / Maybe trade the whole thing?
Post by: the720k on February 24, 2014, 04:15:00 pm

I'm embarrassed to say that I absolutely ruined a 13" tube on a coin-op casino game that was just given to me.   :banghead:  Turns out the back plywood needs to be seated in the groove correctly, otherwise it will fall into the cabinet and break the back of the tube with the neckboard still installed.   :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:  Who knew?

So I'm now looking for a Ceronix 1492 tube so I can get this video poker machine back up and running and trade it for something I'll actually play.  Anyone have one lying around? 

Would also consider trading the chassis plus cash for a working 13" monitor, but I've heard that these can be a little tricky with compatibility sometimes.  Who knows, drop me a line and we'll figure something out. 

Thanks in advance.

Pics so you can see my screw-up as well as what we're working with here.  Looks like an IGT video poker game, not sure on the specifics of it yet, though.

Open to other deals as well.  As nice as the woodwork is, the otherwise good condition, and as interesting as it looks overall, I don't really want this thing in my collection for the long haul.  Ideally, I'd like to repair it and sell or trade, but fine with trading or possibly selling as-is if someone wants to drop in a new monitor themselves.   I'm in Northeast Ohio, right outside of Youngstown.  If anyone is interested in wheeling and dealing, maybe we can work something out. 

Whether a deal can be reached or not, you're all welcome to to cringe at my colossal screw up.  Enjoy?
