First Update just received:

Confirmed 10 NAC and minimum 10 E2 on the next container. I am still waiting on the info for the rest of my requests which should be (as stated earlier) in by the end of the week.

I will begin reaching out to all that showed interest once the rest of the container is confirmed.

I wouldn't be interested until next year at the earliest, but how much more expensive is a Vewlix usually?

Or really any other HD cabs?

If it makes a price difference I don't need a Marquee, sticks, buttons or a control panel for a NAC cab...

Can you ship cabs?

i can deliver personally within 300 miles of chicago for an additional charge. White Glove to your door. However, i'm not terribly cheap in that regard.

You can book 'blanket' shipping through a third party delivery company. They tend to be cheaper.

good night! 10 E2s? NOICE. Makes me wish I wasn't near Ken "I can't get E2's" @thegameroom.com

I don't expect to ever get anymore Egret 2 cabinets. I have searched everywhere in Japan for them and haven't found any.

Ken,

I was wondering how often you get Egret 2’s in. It appears as though the mods (console -> JAMMA) I make may or may not work with these cabs, so I’d like to look into getting one so I can test functionality with them. The rotate mech wouldn’t be bad, either. :D

If you drive yourself you don't need a horribly large vehicle. I've moved net cities and a blast city (one at a time obviously) with a Toyota rav4.

holy shit. that's good to know.
too bad they won't fit in a ford taurus.....


anyone in the NE/IA/KS area looking to get in on this? might make shipping cheaper.
if not, i'm sure i can borrow some kind of truck/suv to move one of these.

can't you find these at any hardware store? I know I can walk into my local HD/Lowes and find them why order?

metric cap nut

That's going to be a tough get on this kind of buy. Unless it already comes with a complete marquee assembly, I doubt Chris is going to part these pieces out.

But you're in luck Mr. cock-drainer, you can still order these from Taito directly. Just got some recently actually along with some replacement casters and E3 art.

I'm assuming this is the stuff you're needing? LMK, I can at least pull the part numbers off of the invoice for you.

In my experience, the metric hardware selection at the big box stores is abysmal. That said, I agree with what you are saying. I've been able to source all of my oddball metric stuff from local mom-n-pop hardware stores.

I've honestly never had any trouble finding exactly what i needed at either Ace hardware or DIT computers.
hell, sometimes the clerks just give me the bolts.

I'm in the Denver area and would be interested in (1) E2 if I could help organize a group delivery to this area to distribute out. I'd be willing to make the drive there and back (or fly there and drive back), rent a truck, etc and divide all the costs up for everyone. I'd just need enough people/cabs to make it worthwhile. I'll get in touch with some locals also to see I can get some more interest.

I had my cabinet picked up from Chris via shipping company since I was too far away. Cost about $370 to my house and put on the 1st floor.

What company did you use? I might be interested in some cabs if price is right. HD cab, E2, Astro City, or Blast City.
