Well your best bet in the bay area is to follow craigslist.org daily.Go to the for sale area and do a search for arcade.

I have followed it daily for about three month and ended up with I consider the find of the decade on craigslist.I was able to get a 4 player gi-joe konami cabinet with 25 inch monitor for a wopping 100.00 bucks.Everything worked ,just had to do a little work on the monitor.

Since purchasing this i have continued to follow craigslist daily and the closest deal to this was around 250-400 bucks.If you see a deal that looks good awesome to you dont wait ,call or email immiediatly.The person who sold me mine had over twenty emails in the first day.Luckily I was first and told him I have a truck ,what day do you want me to pick it up?

Hope this helps,good luck.,Will

I have a 25" cab with a nice WG7000 series monitor that I could part with. Its not a midway style. The cab manufacturer is KOAM (made in Fremont). There is no burn in on the monitor and the majority of the cab has been refinished in HAPPS Pica 'D' Vinyl. It needs about 3 more feet of viynl and tmolding and it will be basically fully restored. New coin door, etc.

PM if interested and I can make some pix available. The cab is is great shape and looking to get $300 w/ the monitor. It currently has the gun game "Point Blank 2" in in.  I'll pulll the board after you've seen it in person. If you want the game w/ guns, holsters, etc.. we can work a deal as well.
