Empty Pacman Case

<< < (2/4) > >>

johnm160:
It is empty, no monitor.

it seems that the CP Glass with bezel and the Coin door would cost me at least that. All of which I would have to buy if I restored the one I own.

I am not sure what you consider going all out. My plan is to have nice side art, new CP overlay and marquee. Ect.


Edited to add: However I agree that $100 is usually more then I am willing to spend on an empty cab.

will it be cheaper to mame this or get a pacman pcb and jamma adapter?

Taking into account a new computer, ipac arcade vga......

Am waiting on pics of the other side now. This thing is 150 miles away from me  :( and I don't want any suprises!


he wants $100.00 for this thing.

Is this just an empty cab, or does it have some guts, such as at least a monitor?

If you would have to buy everything to make an original pacman, you would definitely be better off picking up a free or very cheap junk pentium 1 cpu, and a 19"monitor. I am getting the vibe that you aren't going to go all out on the refurb, so there is no point spending several hundred on original equipment.

Also, if it is an empty cabinet definitely talk the guy down from $100.

Me too, but I'd probably pay that much for this one.

I just picked up a Pacman cab, and I payed $150 cdn for it.  It's very solid, but needs repaint. It's complete minus PCB, but I just picked on up up for it on E-Bay.  Just need time to assemble.  I think $100 for just the case with no monitor is a tad to much.

I agree, I think I am going to pass on this one. It really is not so much the money, but the 300 mile round trip drive in addition to the $100

I will hold out till the auction on the 21st and see what I can pick up there.

Thank for the input guys.

150 for MS pac and free super pac
or 75 for each ...can not remember
+ 300 pluss miles there and 300 miles back
emplty cabs....

It all depends on were you live., and how well you like to take road trips.

My wife and I love our road trips... The arcades were are excuse to get out.
drove up to IL. grabed a hotel, hot tubed all night and nice dinner.
next morning grabed the arcades and drove back home.
super Pac still have done nothing with. Ms Pack ... had running for a few months and now stored for latter use

would I do the trip you talk about? HELL YES! Wife and I need another day off  :cheers: ( and you have somthing to remember the trip forever)
