A Bit O Luck?
« on: July 31, 2007, 04:49:16 pm »
Wish me luck people.  The Arcade God themselves may have been smiling down upon me...we shall see.  I am in the process of working a possible 2-4 cabinet deal and if the Arcade gods are willing,  I will seal this deal sometime this weekend. 

Pray for me fellow BYOACerz....pray for me.

You're lying ... somebody once told me that there are absolutely no cabs in Idaho ...  ;)

Good Luck!

Really? One time, I heard that there was a 5 cab per house limit.  ;D

They set the limit so high because they already knew it wasn't possible that it would ever happen.
Not a technician . . . . just a DIY'er.

...deal still pending...

It was amazing...with my wife...once I actually made some money from my hobby,  she seemed all the more open to more cabs.  Well,  that and I bought her a friggin' treadmill and Tony Little exercise thing...plus the damn diamond heart pendant she just got for her birthday...and the fact that I AM THE ONLY ONE THAT FRIGGIN' WORKS (well,  her 8 hours a week helps...BUY LUNCH!)...

...glad she will never read this...she'd kick ---my bottom---!

I almost don't want to say...don't want to jinx anything BUT...

I may be getting one, some,  or all of the following:

Primal Rage in generic cabinet with 25" monitor
Rampage World Tour in dedicated cabinet - 3 player controls
Galaga (told cabinet is in good to very good condition)
Defender (told cabinet is in good condition but sideart is pretty rough)

I doubt I'll end up with all,  but i'd LOVE to end up with 2 or 3.

What in the hell...months and months without ANY cabinets and all of a sudden I have cabinet options up the ying/yang.  Look what just hit the local craigslist...

...they want $300...and if I didn't have 4 other cab possibilities I would be all over this like stink on ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---.  I bet I could get it for $200...
