So a year ago I bought a blast city from ken. I was delighted, it was in awesome shape. ( the marquee cover got cracked in shipping but that's the shipper's fault ).
earlier this year , as my childhood shmup fetish came back in full force, I bought a 2nd one for vertical games.
This unit, which Ken said was in real nice shape, was quite unlike the first one. burn-ins on the screen, big scuff mark on screen's anti glare coating, gettho homemade button loom, right speakers blown, CP plate rusted bad. It costed me the same as the last one, but this time, it came with no 001 loom ( had to pay 50$ extra ) and a 1L4B panel instead of a 2L12B panel.
so... did I just get lucky on the first one, or is Ken not providing high quality cabs anymore ?
