Now wait a minute how do you get this thing once you buy it? He says pick it up? What does he mean pick it up? Drive to his house or something just to pick up an arcade machine? Once you buy it how do you get it through the door of your own house?? Isn't it too big???!? I NEED QUESTIONS ANSWERED!!

That's probably what it means.

Depends on the dimensions of the door you want to get it in through and the dimensions of the cabinet.

That's one of the only sellers on Ebay I've ever seen who has a "private" feedback rating. And one I would never trust with even the smallest transaction; if he won't allow his feedback to be displayed, then he's obviously untrustworthy. <img src="graemlins/mad2.gif" border="0" alt="[Mad 2]" />

I live near that guy (but I don't know him), and would be willing to help someone with pickup of the game if necessary.

I literally fell in love with the Shodown 2 dedicated cab when I first saw it. Oh how I longed for it.

But alas, I was but a poor 15 year old and all I had was an advertisement in EGM to stare at. I've never, EVER seen one in person. How appropiate the subscript was...

This is NOT!! the real deal folks! The dedicated cab was a dynamo and this is just a simple converted piece of shit :) SS2 in kit form in a crap conversion cab is what your looking at. Pure junk and worth about $150 tops if the monitor is not burnt to hell :D

Yep, he admits the monitor has burn in. Cab is worth about $150 tops (with the game and MVS board). Iwouldn't pay $50 for it though, conversions are pretty much worthless in my eyes.

The original Shodown 2 cab was completely covered in that shard/glass motif. Looked pretty damned cool. Interesting though that SNK actually made conversion kits for their Shodown 2 game (if that's what this is). That side art has me thinking...

Yuck, that thing is butt ugly... Oh by the way, for you youngsters in the house... I bought my first cab when I was 13. I saved up for ever and bought it for $150. It was a beautiful, and probably worth a lot more than what I paid for it, Mappy deluxe cabinet (with huge lit marquee that collapsed into the unit). If you really want a cab, go to your local arcade and see what they are willing to sell, most will sell really cheap. Then all you have to do is get it home, and fun summer project, turn it into a Neo... It is really not that hard of a job and it can be cheaper then ever getting something like this online (and probably more rewarding since you will get it up and running and be able to know how everything works with buttons/joysticks/Harness/etc). Cabs do not cost a lot, if you know where to buy them... and if you want to get a cool looking cab head down to your arcade and see what they will part with. Don't waste anything on this shit auction, that cab is not worth even $150 in my eyes... it is a bad conversion to boot and the side panels are terribly done. I agree with GamersAbyss here... that cab is not worth a thing,

I agree with you as well, your local Operator will have all kinds of cabinets to choose from, you can pick one out and customize it yourself. To me thats half the fun of getting into the Arcade scene. Being an Operator myself I know just how cheap these cabinets can be obtained and a 19" conversion like this probably cost the guy at most 75 bucks at an Arcade auction.
