Going to sell my mini cute cabinet, need some info

[vonze]

I was told to post this here because everyone knew their stuff.


So I've finally decided to part with my cabinet, to much work and school, not enough time to play. It should be listed here within the next week or so (got to take pictures and such) But what is the going price of these now? The screen is perfect, zero burn in and the cabinet is in good shape. I'm thinking around $550-$600, is this too much? too little? Please help me out yo!!

Where are you located and will you ship it? Also, pictures will help to determine the value.

 

[demirichris]

Please PM me with your info and if you will ship or not. I am very interested.

$550-$600 is about right.
That is what they usually go for, if they don't look like SHIT!

Ehhh $550 is a little steep IMO unless the cab is spotless and complete. Keep in mind its only got a 19" monitor in it...

I paid that for mine.
It was in great shape, + these cabs are pretty hard to locate.

Yeah I paid $350 for my Asto City 2.... it doesn't at all mean that is the market value of it. What you pay, and going rate are different.

I dunno I just personally think $550+ is steep. I remember seeing a pair for sale not too long ago for about $400 each.

I'd say Jimminy is right. These aren't as common as astros and neo candies. To find them in good to great condition makes it even harder. $500-600 for one in good condition is a good deal (IMHO of course).

It may not be as "useful" as a standard jap cab due to size of control panel and monitor, but... once imho I think most people that are after these types of cabs are more about the novelty of the "cute little machine" rather than a good general purpose cab.

Speakin of mini cutes... finally moved mine out of my friend's pad and into my garage not too long ago. Since I've owned this guy (about 2 yrs now?), only recently has it been in my physical possesion.

Agreed. I don't want a minicute because its the most functional/practical cabinet out there. I want one because its a pink arcade cabinet.

...one of these days...though it may not be for years...

 

[demirichris]

Holy shit I love the way those things look. Its probably the only cab I could manage to squeeze into my game room, I am running out of space big time.

So dude send me a PM. I want that mini cute!!!

 

[BIG]

They make a nice personal cab for small apt/dorm room.

I've had about four of these sitting on my living room floor at one point. They are great conversation pieces,I tell ya.

If your 'cute is in a fairly decent shape,I'd say it's worth anywhere from $500-$600.

Would anyone on the west coast want to sell me a mini cute, or a neo 19 for that matter? Looking at stealthlurkers pics I can't help but think how nice one would look in my house.

Likewise on the Mini Cute.

I wouldn't be too surpised if the OP is being offered with some PMs, but I am also interested in the Mini-Cute if you happen to be in the West Coast (heck, maybe even willing to have it shipped).

This was my reply in your thread over in general:

Condition is king, both inside & out.
Fuckers got to function perfectly too for a healthy asking price.
an example that functions properly & is in good condition would probably start @ $250 to $300. As the Physical/cosmetic condition gets better the price would increase. Don't forget that the condition/state of the monitor & no alterations to the original CP are paramount as well.

At this point your asking price is looking like it may be well recieved, but you should post some pics up soon to solidify the condition.
also, I forgot to ask which color one you have. There are Pink, Blue & Yellow Mini Cute's. The color could effect the desireability.

Agreed, Anything under a 25" monitor is way too small if you ask me

Ok I take back what I said before after seeing the condition of the mini cute. Very nice cab... where's it located? I might know a few people interested.

By the way, whats up with the megalo I see in the background? Lemme know if you sell that one
