Title: $10 Neo Geo Cab in Los Angeles Area
Post by: AtomSmasher on May 06, 2007, 12:59:06 pm
I just noticed this auction is only a few hours away from ending and no one has bid on it yet.  If anyone in the L.A. area wants a cab for cheap, heres your chance.

so its not worth $10?  Empty cabs often go for $100 around here, so $10 for one that looks to be in decent condition and comes with a control panel, coin door, monitor bezel, and a monitor that may or may not be easily repaired, seems like a pretty good deal to me.

I've been seriously considering getting this, but I don't plan on building another cab for a while, so I can't bring myself to do it.

Depending on what games the mini-marquees are for and if they are original are still a plus.  $10 for an empty cabinet with complete monitor & fully populated CP, even not working is good.

The auction ended at $80.99 with two bids.

From the auction, "Also the monitor has no picture.  It should be a quick fix for any arcade or TV technician."

With a handle like "arcade_land", fixing the monitor might not be as quick as he states.
