Ok folks. After working out numerous details, I wound up having a buyer back on this one after I'd finally decided to sell it. So, it's up for grabs. It's important to me to make what I can from this while still being reasonably fair, so keep that in mind.

The cab is in nice shape, everything works, monitor rotates smoothly, etc. No burn in at all. It's the white one on the left (black one is long gone, btw):

I will not deliver this game, but I will ship it anywhere in the US to your door (you pay NAVL shipping). Otherwise, it's pick up only about 20 miles west of Boston. I may be willing to make other arrangements as requested.

I have several Neo Geo posters and assorted JAMMA boards I will include should the buyer be interested. Cash only, no trades (unless it's pinball or classic arcade related). Please make offers as you see fit. Let's get this a good home guys.

(Note: If interested, I also have a bunch of higher-tier MVS games/kits that I will sell for a reasonable price to a buyer of the Egret).

Ouch is that $900 each? Or $900 for the pair?

-B

*edit*: sorry re-read the post to see its $900 each. Why the high price tag? I don't mean to poo on your thread but those are like $450 everywhere else.

Thanks for pooing on the thread ;)

I flat out said I'm starting high, but taking offers. The idea is that, if someone really wants one, then they'll pay for it. The black one of the right sold for $750 to a very happy customer. Good luck finding a nice, solid Egret in the northeast for $450. You're from this area, you should know.

Yeah but even with freight factored in from Matsu, it will be only about $600-$650. But anyway, you're right, its tough to find them localy. I was forced to freight my New Astros from cali, but it was worth it.

Anyhow, goodluck with your cab sale. The Egret 1's are nice. If you were selling an Egret 2, I'd be on it like flys on shit.

After a buyer wound up bailing out, I'm back to the drawing board. $600, you pick it up 30 miles west of Boston MA. I'll toss in some random JAMMA boards and posters. Who's in? PM me.

Thanks, Adam. Go earn that money now! Get a loan! Don't let this slip by.

Actually, I'm surprised. Back when I wanted $750 for it, tons of people said "gee, if only you'd take $600". So, now we're at $600 and I've gotten practically nothing. Bummer.

I bought a Neo Gold from clubninja, and he couldn't have been more helpful with loading it up and everything. I highly recommend him as a superb cab seller.

Back on sale folks! White Egret, very lovable. The only issue with this cab is that when you turn it on cold, the image on the screen will roll for about a minute. After that, it's fine. No burn in, everything else runs very well. It's not attached, but I also have the top plexi marquee piece. $500 OBO. Will consider trade for a low-end, but decent and running DLP projector.

Heh, yeah. They looked great next to each other at my place, so I'll bet they'll be happy to be reunited.

Wow, congrats Beagle!

I was seriously considering shipping this to Alabama.


Because I'm madly in love with the Egret 29....:drool_2:

I think this one may make the trip into my bedroom.

I'm going to run exclusively Neo on this cab (and maybe a vertical shooter here or there), and go with CPS on the Cyberlead.

I just ordered some sticks and buttons, so when those come in maybe you can help me play around with them.

Sounds like a plan.

I actually keep getting out bid on Ebay, but I'm going to pick up the beat 'em ups like D&D and AvsP, plus a fighter or two for starters. My return should be coming soon, so I hope to get a few boards after that.

I know you just started getting into CPS. What games do you have?

I had a woody capcom cab before the candy, I'm also looking for braawlers, I hope we don't run into eachother on ebay;) . For now I have all fighters, but slowly I'll get more variety. I'm still working with MVS and Atomiswave and those take priority for me at less I see a good deal for CPS.

Alpha
Alpha 2
Super Turbo
Xmen COTA
Marvel SH
Xmen vs SF
MSH vs SF
Marvel vs Capcom
Darkstalkers

BTW Beagle I saw a good deal on a phoenixed MvC, you might want to check it out.
