Once you finish customizing your machine the base price comes up under your arcade machine choice.

From what I understand, he does okay.  Sounds like he sells a fair amount of product to a reseller on the east coast who caters to customers for whom money is like water.  He sells them for $6k (or whatever) to the middlemen who resell at double that.  <sarcasm>After all, a $12,000 cabinet HAS to be better than a cheap old $6,000 one.  Right?</sarcasm>

Looks like g-rock gets to do what he honestly enjoys doing: designing and building cabs.  And really, why would he direct customers here?  His customers and the members of this forum are pretty much like oil and water, they don't mix well.
