Coin door is permanently de-activated. Why have it on then!
It's a market economy so if someone will pay that then more fool them. Be cheaper to buy the wood and the electronics, hire a chippy to make it, an electronics guy to wire it up and a graphic artisit to do the overlay.

I saw one in Costco for $1999.99, it had an Ultracade name on it.
-
That's insane.

It's expensive, for sure.
Ultracade should sell the cab for less and make their money on the game packs...
...and make their cabs less fugly. :P

yeah, but not everyone wants to do that. a similar example would be building a house. some people shop around and hire individual contractors to do different things and save some money. others just get the house built by one building company- might not be quite as cheap but then it's a lot less hassle.
certainly a lot of us here would do neither with a cab. we like to build it ourselves. it's half the fun after all :laugh:

For one thing people, when you pay more for something "complete" you 're also paying for a warranty. You don't really get a warranty if you build it yourself or buy from some hobby-ist.

I disagree. Everything I build for myself comes with an unlimited lifetime guarantee. ;)

Pretty ugly design :P

that's another good point. do you think i might have difficulty claiming warranty on my monitor by the way?

Fugly for sure. But upon looking over the costco site navigation to the left I found:

Am I the only one who finds this a bit bizarre? ARCADIAC!

Fugly for sure.

I like this part
"Drivers do not bring freight into house, garage, etc., nor do drivers assist with un-packaging or set-up."
So they open the tailgate, back up fast and then hit the brakes!
