MVS cabinets tend to get way over priced on ebay , since alot of people dont bother to find items away from ebay and therefore pay what the item is actually worth in the real world.

I wouldnt pay over $500.00 for that cabinet no matter whats in it ,since most operators here in Ca tend to sell MVS cabs complete or otherwise for $300 to $500 on average.

Since you are in the U.K. and MVS cabs seem to be damn near impossible to find over there ,it may be worth more based on that alone.

Yeah, I almost never see UK based sales for cabs. Heck, I am having a hard time even finding a Candy Cab in the USA, and I'm in California! Arcade Infinity doesn't respond to emails though, so that never helps...

Vektorlogic sells similar cabs (basically weird looking 6 slots) for £199 so whoever is bidding is getting ripped......i would'nt bother if i was you!

Mike ... tell them you have the cash and want to buy one right now if they have any and I bet they will get back to you in a reasonlable amount of time :) the Tao bros like money :D

But yeah they can be slower than a snail in winter.

I did tell them I had the cash to buy it, two emails, and still no reply. I wish they had a phone number to call but I do not see one listed on their site. I may just settle for a Capcom Impress cab that I found locally, although with that I will not be able to play MVS since the button layout would be awkward.

I think Nruva has their phone #

You may want to ask him for it.

Ohh yeah Dojosky showed up at my house the other night out of the blue :) It was good to see him finally, I hadnt seen him since about 94. He was rather blown away bye the image quality on my cabinet, I guess he has only been doing the AES thing for a while now.

I have never seen anyone other than the Tao's and private parties selling candy's

Will do. Thanks for the info! Do you know of any other Candy Cab dealers, doesn't matter if they are in CA or not, I am willing to spend a few bucks on shipping. I just want to get the nicest one I can find.
