Hahahaha. It took me WELL over a year of trying to get my hands on one of these babies. Unless you can get Plaza Capcom in Yokohama to ship you one (if they even would sell them), Arcade-Infinity is your only bet. Mine Is in beautiful condition, so as long as you go down to AI yourself in person and choose the individual you are going to buy, I don't see why you'd have a problem. Good luck on your hunt. I give my empathy.

When I was at AI about 2 years ago they had one on the floor that was new, and I don't mean like new... I mean new. It had 18 on the coin counter and not a scratch on it. Jack wanted $500 for it, and had I been in the market for a Capcom cab I'd have picked it up. Nice cab, but I don't have the space these days for a whole lot.

Mine only had 000113 on the coin counter. She's in excellent "white" condition. Even still had the plastic film protecting the marquee and side art still on it. I, of course, de-virginized her immediately after her first wipedown.

Problem is, I'm far away from Cali.

I could have someone local pick one out for me, but I hear dude is charging way more these days for the ones in nice condition.

I was there within hours of AI getting in the huge shipment of around 30 or so. There was probably only 5 or 6 that were white... I know BigPoppaLarge bought 1 of the white ones, as did I. I payed $650, but it was well worth it considering how rare this cab is. Once AI is out, expect to see 1 for sale about every 2 years. Seriously, that rare.

I just checked on ebay, and looks like AI is selling one, but of course, they used a stock photo.

Yeah, no doubt it's yellow. Also, many of them had Astro City control panels.

You can always just email them and ask if it has the the original panel. No reason in asking about the color....But sometimes yellowed fiberglass can be somewhat restored with a nice hard wipedown using WD-40.

FUCK SHIT BITCH NACHOS

If I'm paying $600 plus shipping for something, I gotta make sure it's in good condition. I don't care about yellowing really, but that biatch better have a crisp monitor and working controls with the 6 button layout.

OK by your words, that makes me think you are paying X amount for the cab, and $600 for SHIPPING..

Did I read that right, or am I smoking crack?

edit: i guess it helps to READ a post. nevermind. I'm obviously smoking crack.
