HAHA Thanks guys, I didn't find them in Ohio - Michigan, that's where I've bought all my games even in the early 2000's with my first home arcade. Just has always worked that way.
I did find them on Craigslist but not FS...I put a WTB on it.
The guy I bought them from is on here, I don't know his handle but he's a great guy, let me have a bunch of buttons and a massive stack of Capcom artwork, Mortal Kombat 2 conversion artwork, cap kits, Tekken 3 board, marquees.
I will be buying from him again.
The MKII has one of the 1069 in 1 multi-boards in it, and the monitor to my eyes is flawless.
I'm pretty stoked to say the least. I should be saving more of my money but when I saw he had 2 of my grails.. MKII probably being my grail of grails, because I never thought I'd find one for a decent price. I'll get pics of the MKII today.
