New atari cabaret doghouse- Check it out !!

*** I offered to sell this complete working centipede cabaret for 2 months for $300 and no takers so cry all you guys want too***

Hell it was even on ebay- bunch of cheap people I tell ya

TRUST me when I say this- This is not the first cab I have thrashed and I am sure it wont be the last

not really looking to win anyone over here are you kieth?
 
Was going to smash it but the dogs have a liking to it for now :D

See pics

WTF kind of rodent is that?
The eyes... I cant get over them. Almost like a rat being strangled.
Have that hideous thing chew on the anode cap and fire up the monitor. Spare that poor
beast from ever having to see it's own reflection.

Hey now that dog is a valiant warrior trying to save that Atari cab! He's like the hippy that straps herself to a tree that's about to be cut down to keep the bulldozer away! The doggy is not the villain here ;^;
 
This guy has jackass seller written all over him; I knew it the second he tried the "Think about it, but you probably won't find it elsewhere" tactic when I inquired about parts he had. Red flag for someone who doesn't know how to do business.

I'm glad I found my Tron cabaret elsewhere. I bet he still wonders why he can't sell his...
 
You want it come and get it for Free- Cant get any cheaper than that. It will see the garbage men in a week or 2
 
Pookdolie,

Say what ya want too. I will sell off the parts one way or another. I have 100% feedback on ebay for years now. No one buys the parts then they will sit. It should not be too difficult to sell once the movie comes out in december.

Damn you guys cant take a joke !
 
If I lived near you I would have picked it up a long time ago. I can't find a cabaret cabinet here at all and you are throwing them out and bragging about how many you've destroyed. You are on THE arcade preservation forum. It isn't a joke to anybody here, but congrats on making everybody angry.

So what are the dimensions and weight of that cabaret cabinet? I will literally send you a freight sticker to slap on the back of the cabinet and have it picked up. No skid, no nothing, they will just pick it up as is. I don't care if it gets beat up, I just want it for the measurements so I can make reproductions.

It seems a better fate than your dog pissing in it and then you lighting it on fire while you laugh about it...
 
Doghouse

The Atari mini cab is nothing, just wait until he trashes the Tron mini cabinet
just because he could not sell it for more than its worth. Disgusting

What movie is that? Human Centipede? :D
 
Do our games become more valuable with each confirmed smashing of a dedicated cabinet?

I love how he's getting his balls busted for smashing his own shit, but clearly this place is overflowing with cheap asses that want everything for free (me included).

Oh well, smash away - I'd like to pretend that mankind didn't make faux-woodgrain cabinets/electronics anyways.

The problem here is that minis are much harder to come by in some areas. That cabinet looks beautiful compared to the minis that come up around here. The sellers always want top dollar even if the bottom is rotted, wood grain is torn, and even if one side was redone with a different vinyl. I would love to own one, but at this rate I will have to make one. So I think that contributes to the sentiment when a nice cabinet is trashed. If you don't want it, then don't buy it. The buy it, strip it, or flip it shit gets old.

"but no one wants it for free"... If you didn't even want it, then why the fuck did you have it?

Also, all of the bitching about everyone being cheap isn't even on topic. Stripping and destroying a mini isn't about the money from the non destroying side of things. It is one less cabinet that is out there for someone to find, collect, and most importantly, enjoy. Just because someone was not there in X weeks with X dollars, the game is lost forever.

End rant....
 
Well - the guy just offered it up for free.

If this guy has to listen to everybody bitch at him somebody better go pick it up.


So who is going to get the cabinet?
 
This is where spoiled collectors come into play. They live in areas where this stuff is just lying around cheap so they grab it up because they can, then they figure "What the hell am I going to do with this?", try to make a quick buck on it, can't, so they part it out and toss the rest in the trash. I see this all the time in the Upper East, Midwest North, and Cali - and anyplace that has regular SuperAuctions like Dallas.

Meanwhile, those of use who live in areas that almost never have games pop up are keeping the bondo companies in business...

This is very true. I've had to patch up some pretty nasty looking machines. (AKA Frogger)
 
i will take it but i cannot drive to get it.
i am in michigan
but i would pay for shipping if you could just dismantal the sides.
so basicly the 4 sides bottom and top panels
if it cannot be done then no biggie

but i figured cold not hurt to ask and i would hate it to be destroyed.

thanks

I already offered to have it picked up if you didn't see this posted before. Let me know.
