these are not mine. I found the post a little funny. The original one can probably be fixed with just a fuse. Either way, 75$ for a cabinet + chassis + board isn't too bad of a deal.

Original post below:


Both of these cabinets used to be Ms PacMan. One is original, the other isn't. The original one has the board and chips for the game as well as a nearly brand new monitor (less than 10 hours use). I paid $300 just for the monitor.

The electronics are not hooked up, but they did work the last time I had it together. You can hear it power up when you plug it in. I just don't have the time to work on it and I would like the garage space back.

The other cabinet is painted black and is empty, save for a few spare parts. Both cabinet needs some work, but either would make a great MAME cabinet!

Price is $75 each, or $125 if you want both. They will not fit in the trunk of my car, so you will need to pick them up.
 
and they are now in my garage, the one cabinet might make a mame, the ms pacman is in ok condition, the glass is peeling, the main board looks like a bootleg, although the eproms say ms. pacman and midway on them. it is a single board without the daughter board.

got them back to the house about 9:30 last night so I will get a closer look when I get home tonight....it also has a new bestech monitor in it that he purchased for it 3 -5 years ago from a local dealer, no burn in .

Hey isn't that a Stern cabinet? Would you consider selling it? Or I can trade you another Stern cabinet and an empty cabaret for it . . .

Damn, I was all over that. Never got a response to my email. Oh well. Great pickup.

I learned the hard way. check CL often and send email or call right then or you miss it, I missed a playchoice 10 to another klov'er here in knoxville....weny for 250 bucks because i was too slow.

I got lucky I was #2 on the list and the 1st person didnt respond when he said he would so I got the email that said they were mine....I got to his house 45 minutes later with the truck.

he did say he got a lot of email about it too

That was me actually, I called him and told him I'd be getting them around seven instead of five, he said that was fine, but when it came time to get them, he told me he had decided to keep them due to "family issues" I just figured someone offered more money.
 
not sure about what transpired, I emailed him after i got home and he just said come get them so I did....

I just fired it all up and the monitor looks great, tested the PS and it tested ok so i hooked it up and the screen came up to ms pacman, has a line in the middle of the characters, no sound. it is a bootleg board, has a stern ps1000 power supply.

Ah, I harbor no bad feelings about it. I was just gonna get her running again and pass her on. No biggie, I've learned not to let stuff like that get to me as games come and go!
 
Good way to look at it. I am glad someone on here was able to get it at the very least. Sucks he wouldn't wait and that he gave you a bogus reason, but I wouldn't fault the person who bought it because he isn't going to know what transpired beforehand.

I am glad it is a working monitor for you and I am sure you will have lots of fun tinkering with her and bring her back to life :)
 
it is hard to find much around here, there is more of us than games, I have a bunch of empty cabinets that need to go along with some other stuff....got to make room to start a car restoration.

Didn't realize there were any of you guys around here, I saw the same cl ad the moment it posted but I now have two mame cabs and a cocktail and no room for anything else now. Not sure why I torture myself with looking at arcade ads since there is no way to bring it into the house.
