Post by: Magnet_Eye on May 08, 2003, 06:00:34 am: yeah, its cool if you live in the immediate area....otherwise $180 for shipping a $20 item is NOT worth it.

:o booyah!

yeah but there are live (not ebay) auctions every month in NJ and several collectors/distributors etc... there should be no reason not to find cheap/free/decent stuff in NJ

Post by: paigeoliver on May 09, 2003, 02:01:09 am: Wait. I looked at the bids, and I think that answered my question. It is the Captain America right?

Post by: Snakebyte on May 09, 2003, 02:13:52 pm: I'm seriously considering getting one of these. Has anyone contacted the guy yet to see what he's like? The price sure seems right and I wouldn't mind the drive to San Jose to pick one up!

Post by: ThePunk on May 12, 2003, 03:01:49 am: Hello Everyone,
Been browsing these forums forever. Finally decided to join/post.
Anyways..The captain america cabinet sold to a guy called UsedElectronics. Have any of you noticed the same guy has been buying a LOT of unusual arcade items recently?
