I saw that listing about a week ago too, so apparently it's not as "highly sought after" as the seller thinks. The bummer about the repeat listing around here is that they never seem to get cheaper as the weeks go on. I could swear I've seen some game from the SF series listed for the past 3 months for the same bargain price of $600.

Ya...and he leaves out the word "original". Maybe it's just me, but some of these sellers pay close attention to their wording and tend to manipulate you into thinking its original without actually claiming that. Whenever the word "original" isn't used I always seek a clarification. I can't tell you how many times a "fully restored" machine turned out to be a "fully shopped" conversion from a game that used the same style cabinet.

Had water damage on the bottom 3 inches but was repaired by the guy that installed Jay Buhner's A/V system in his Hummer.

WTF does Jay Buhner have to do with anything?   :laugh2:
