I've been wanting a Zeke's Peak for a while but none have turned up but today I grabbed an ICB off of CL. It's going to need some work but I haven't even had time to open the thing up and look inside yet. I's exited though!

Thanks! I need to figure out how to prioritize my projects. I've already torn into the Rip Off cabinet to start repairing it. It's playable and all but I really need to finish all of that before I start on other stuff. And now I have a pretty looking Omega Race PCB with absolutely zero acid damage but missing a couple chips. I'm itching to get that put together but I really need to check out the power supply first as well. And now I have the ICB which is complete but I need to rebuild the base and then it's got issues as well.

Decisions, decisions. And....I'm still unloading this storage unit and trying to absorb all that stuff. This isn't how I had planned to start the new year...
 
Did the seller come down on the price or is that how much they are worth now?

I completely understand. With work and school I have limited time. I will be finished with school in 6 months and then my entire focus will be centered on completing my gameroom and completing my projects. I picked up an ICB last year and have not even taken the shrink wrapping off yet. :(

He was open to negotiation.

Is yours supposed to be working? He told me that they had gotten it working by replacing the belts with a piece of rope but that the knot kept holding things up. Heh.

They guy was quite a character. It looked like a scene straight out of Pickers.

My guess is he settled for $50.

Hey Jehuie, I got caught up with the wife and kids today, now, I realize, I was supposed to meet you today.

sorry bro

nice pick-up on the icb, does it appear to be 54 years old? maybe it's a prototype

No it was having pcb issues. I bought another pcb but have yet to test it. I think Riptor sells belts.
 
Congrats, bro! It's a fun game that always gets tons of play when people come over. Post some pics!

No problem. Just come as soon as you can and get the heap out of here! Honestly, today was a busy day anyway so it's probably for the best. I never answered you about the trade either, did i? I think I'm going to hold out for the cash this time. That was pretty funny about him saying it was so old. I wish I had thought to video the whole transaction. I can't even begin to describe what the place was like.

I've been wanting one ever since I saw one at CAX a couple years ago. I still haven't ever actually played on though since that one broke during the show. But it looked cool as heck when I saw people playing it. I'll try to post some up during the day tomorrow.
 
beer is good

Congrats on that ICB, that is one helluva great game, highly sought after...



...what the heck am I saying , you already know this.
still looking to make that deal with you when I get paid, might have to just send you a deposit and pick em up before or during CAX if thats cool!

I'd really rather not store them that long. I just don't have room for long-term storage but I can work with you. I'll send you a pic or two of the other one later today.
 
Nice score on the ICB you should make some nice cash flipping it.

This has been on my wish list for a long time my man.
 
I meant that he was assuming I was just going to flip it. I bought AD and didn't flip it recently. I bought Rip Off and didn't flip it. I got an Omega Race and haven't flipped it. I keep the ones I like the best and sell the others.
 
Here's some pics of the thing:
