Title: WTB: 19" B&W Monitor from anywhere
Post by: AlanS17 on August 27, 2004, 05:32:45 pm
I just bought a complete Space Invaders Deluxe with a blown monitor on Ebay for $130. If I can replace/fix that monitor I'll be in business for cheap. However, I haven't seen the thing yet and I'm counting on it being unsalvageable.

Anybody know where to find a B&W monitor? As hard as they are to come by, I'm willing to pay reasonable shipping charges. However, anything in the Dallas/ Forth Worth area would be ideal. Thanks in advance!

I have 23" b&w monitors available tested and working if you want to put in a bigger screen then this would be ideal.

I'd say "hell yeah" except for one thing - we're talking about Space Invaders Deluxe. C'mon, paige, you know your games. I KNOW you do. ;-) There's a multi-colored film covering the monitor to simulate a color game. Such a film wouldn't (or at least I don't think it will) fit onto a 23" monitor. Plus I haven't seen the mounts yet so I don't know if it can accomodate a larger monitor.

Would you know where to find one? You seem to be the classic parts master around here.

I realized you had a Deluxe yes, but they are often missing the overlays.

You can hack almost any monitor into any cab. a 23" into an invaders would be simple.

Oh, I can sell you a tested/working 19", but you won't like the price one bit, $300 shipped.

Ouch! May I ask why it's so expensive? Is it because they're harder to come by? Are you already using it in something?  ???

I don't wanna be cheap. I want to do this the right way since it's a classic. But I don't know if I can afford $300 right now.

How much you think shipped to NJ For that complete Stunt Cycle?  I need to get my fill on that game.  

I can get to Newark Liberty airport no problem to pick it up.

$300 for the game itself.

800-959-8880 and ask for Michelle at North American van lines for shipping info, think they will actually bring it to your house. Shipped from 63031 (Florissant, MO) to your location.

Is it a VGA arcade monitor, or a computer monitor?
