You can probably thank James for those numbers.

I sure can!

Made a change today!

I swapped the white CFL in the marquee for one of those red party CFLs that Walmart sells. It looks amazing, and my camera can't quite capture how good it looks. I lined the inside of the marquee box with aluminum foil to get a more even lighting.

You are more dedicated than I am. I picked up my first VB when blockbuster was unloading them for $35 (about I forget the actual amount) with the cool gun case. The second which is on the cabinet I got for $5.

Of course I still have both.

Does this mean you won't be producing more cabinets/kits?

Don't worry guys. This is being sold for my all time grail. I just hope the deal doesn't fall though.

 

[keithsarcade]

My question is will this mean the kits will cost $2500?

He gets a little freaky with it at one point... Very funny.
