Hey Guys,
I just took a look at a NFL Blitz 2k Gold/NBA Showtime 2in1 cabinet and the overall machine was in great condition. Sideart looks perfect, control, sticks, etc all looked nice and clean..pretty much nice inside and out. The only thing was the monitor wasnt working, the guy said of course it was working a few weeks ago and it just went out, before that it was working and looking fine. He turned it on and was able to get sound of the game etc, I did notice a weird high pitch hum or noise coming from the screen, which may be related?..i dont know. He said he had his "tech guy" take a look at 2 fuses but couldn't get to the other ones, said it could just be that. He had a nice MK2 cabinet right next to it, same deal, very nice condition, and bought both of them a few years ago online, both excellent shape. He's going to hold it for me overnight to decide..he's asking $350 for the Cabinet. One other thing, its a 3rd floor walk up!!! haha. I'd have to pay someone to get it down the stairs for me and delivered to my apartment about 20 blocks away..my building has an elevator and the cheapest quote I got was about 150 bucks. So really its going to cost me $500 for this thing. Is the machine worth the risk of $350, with the possibility that the monitor needs to be replaced? I should be able to fix the monitor myself eventually or have someone take a crack at it but what do you all think about that price?..what would you do.
