Tired of seeing classsic cabs hoarded by multiboard jobbers..
Every ad I see now on kijiji for my local area is filled with crappy 60-1 multiboard jobs in random cabs being sold for 1200$! The monitors seems to be in good shape, but damn! I'm tired of seeing cabs for classic games (or just good titles) being 'hoarded' that way. And the guys have been trying to sell the same cabs for months sometimes. I even emailed a few guys asking if they would sell the cab without the board for a decent, honest price (Im not talking lowballing offers, i wouldnt mind paying 500$ for a machine in good shape with a monitor in very good shape. WHen I get answers, I get bullshit replies like "Sorry cant sell them, the boards are worth 400 each$! Its official merch, not bootleg) (SUCH BULLSHIT)
I also feel bad for people buying those machines thinking they are getting a good deal for 1200$, considering most pirate boards are 60$ :S
I managed to pick up a super rare non-bootleg CABAL board, the joystick edition (!!!!) and I need a cab to install in it; and I just can't find anything decent! I got the sidearts marquees + manuals, it just needs a cab
Sorry, I had to vent!
(prices are in CAN $ and pricings are normal for my local area, my particular province is dead when it comes to arcade collecting)
