Thanks,

arcade parts... all i have are:
1) all the boards (working) for World Series: The Season
2) working power supply from that game
3) wiring harness for that game too
4) 7 (i think) leaf-switch style pushbuttons (white and red).
5) manual for world series
6) 40 feet of black t-molding that i just got from Cue-Ball

Yeah, nothing that great.  sorry, i only have what i yanked from that cabinet and didn't ebay.

anything else you're looking for? (computer related maybe?)

Spend the extra six bucks and get the baseline model.  No soldering, and it's really easy to set up.

Or, if you're going to be cheap, go with a keyboard hack.  Oh, wait...you said 'no soldering.'  I guess you're stuck.

performance, price, reliability...pick two.

Ha... fair enough...  I thought it would be worth it to go from 20 to 8 beans... it might be a tougher sale to get 'em to go to 36 plus shipping (or thereabouts)...

well good luck with finding a seller/trader (i mean that sincerly... no.. honest...)

Why are we all being mean to me?  I don't really understand...  I guess I'm stupid cause I'm poor.  Oh well.  And yes, I know this isn't the hobby to be in if you're poor.  I already have the cabinet, the system (Athlon XP 1800) and the monitor.  I Also have the tools needed, I just need an encoder, joysticks and buttons.  

Thanks guys,

(JEEZ i was just trying to be very very cheap...  I'll break down and buy a keywiz... you guys talked me into it...   :'(  ) I suppose if I can get a good working cab for under 100 bucks i'll be the cheapest person ever.

You think you're being cheap?  The total cost of stuff for my cab, so far, has been $150.  That includes the encoder, and the monitor.  Everything else I've picked up for free.  I'm just really patient, and wait for stuff to fall my way.

Of course, I can't play until I do so, but hey...it's cheap.

Well we DO have something in common!  I've spent 12 dollars so far on my cab, and that was the T-Molding!  Someday I'll have me some buttons and Joysticks and an encoder!  WOO!

LOL
