Wow, that is pretty cheap.
It will be interested to see how high it goes for at the auction's conclusion in 2 days...

I dont think that IM cab will go up too much, probably less than $500 (my guess, most likely less).

I am very curious about that Star Wars Arcade, Im going to throw in a bid towards the end.

Has anyone ever seen one of those on Ebay before, or for sale anywhere else?

What do they usually sell for? Im thinking this one will end in the $1,500.00+ range (before shipping and crating).

(I don't what happened..I just posted and it's not showing up..here/as below.)




I'll say $1,500.00 too......It's an awesome cab/game..

You don't see these much on Ebay...I may have come across one at an Arcade auction before..
(it's heavy)

I wonder if the winning it bidder of the Irritating Maze arcade is out resident member

Indeed it is

I would love to have that game in my Garage ;)

I wonder if it has (or I can hook up) the air jets that shoot air at you if you lose.

air jets that shoot air

It should have them.....this is the original model of the machine..

Sometimes they may be off or disconnected..

I have the MVS kit..But,I always wondered what's inside one of those machines.
Is it MVS.?.. confused :confused:

Good luck my friend ..I hope you win it... :buttrock:

The description says it has the air vents.
I've been watching this one for awhile, but definitely don't have the cash to bid.

Good luck, bud, and hope to see pics of it if you win!

yep, that's just the dedicated cab, every machine of that game here was that type. According to HadrMVS, it uses a custom MV1 - for the different controller connections, maybe.

I played. An interesting game, at least. It deserved well the couple of quarters that I had spent on it. But like the name says, it's irritating.

Wow,

Impressive...

I bid around $550 -- I didn't think it would go for $810... Someone wanted it pretty bad.

Hey guys,

I am the guy that wanted the Irritating Maze" pretty bad. It arrived yesterday. The seller was awesome.

The Good: The machine is here and it looks great from the front. I will be happy to take pictures. Just let me know what you want to see.

The Bad: NAVL destroyed the back door.

The Ugly: I am really happy with the machine, but it needs a few fixes that I am hoping you guys can help with. The air compressor is really loud and needs to be replaced. Also, the rollers under the trackball need to be replaced. Anyone have any idea where to get these parts or similar items that work?

Also, anyone know if this cab has a volume knob? If so, where can i find it?

Thanks,
Danny

You can get replacement rollers and bearings from Bob Roberts I'm sure.

Volume is on the PCB - on the right side, just to the left of the ribbon cable. It's a little white knob you will have to turn with a screwdriver.

I have a manual for that cabinet that Lithy (I think) was kind enough to donate. I'll try to get it scanned soon for you.

Good luck!

Hey guys, thanks for the info. I am leaving in a few hours for a week vacation. I will take detailed pictures of the inside and out when I return. In the meantime, it looks like the one on Brigg's site.
