There is an arcade seller in Anaheim California, can't remember the name. Once in a while they sell Candy Cabs. I think it's right off the Santa Ana Freeway. Someone here who lives in L.A. may know the name.
You're probably thinking of Arcade-Infinity. They no longer sell arcade stuff.
Only person I know of is Matsu:

Here's an archive of the old Arcade-Infinity if anyone was interested:

If you want great candies, hit up Matsu. I bought two off of him and he's awesome with the service and communication.

I actually talked to Ken the other day, he has a 25" and a 29" Neo Candy in stock for VERY reasonable prices. I'm almost tempted to grab the 29" for myself, but I'm holding out for a Taito or a Sega candy cab. I already own a North American neo geo cab, otherwise I'd be all over that.
No idea what condition his Neo Candy cabs are, the prices DO seem kinda low, so they might be real restoration projects for all I know.

Well, in all honesty, I totally feel Jorge on this issue. Matsu's is my friend, but what's right is right. It was negligence on his part, and he admittedly apologized for it.

I think he asked for it to be pre-tated & did not get it in which case he had a fair point & as for most people this is not a easy job & owning a Impress myself I can understand this, unlike on some other cabs such as the Astro city there is no monitor frame so it can be tricky to rotate the screen without breaking the tube & not everyone is cut out for technical stuff.
