I've been wanting one for awhile now, and I think I finally found one. I won't be posting the ad because I don't want someone snatching the offer before I do, but basically some guy is selling Final Fight, Caveman Ninja, and a Neo Geo (two slot?) with Fatal Fury 2 and some Baseball game (exact game not given). Each one is $250 and I can definitely afford that, so I decided to get the Neo Geo because I can get the most use out of it.

I contacted the guy asking for more pictures and more details. Here is the only pic I have as of now:

I will post other pictures as I get them. Hopefully you veterans can help me in the process.

P.S. What other things should I inquire about?

That Neo is a conversion but it looks good. That Final Fight looks awesome.

Monitor's usually the main concern on a cab, inquire if there is any burn in, if it looks crisp etc. Other than that if the board works almost everything else in a cab is cheap.

You shouldn't have posted that picture, on the bottom it says "located right in Wayne". All anyone would have to do is look up Craigslist for Wayne, IN and find it. You might want to edit that bit out.

Right about letting everyone know where it is. Some fool over at Racketboy is planning on buying the very same cab! ;)

Now he'll have to go and edit a few other peoples' posts too!

I tried looking for it and no love. I take it this one's taken! Can't comment without a pic, but no big deal.

Its because its the wrong Wayne.

Anywho, if this is a repro then should I get it or hunt for an original.

For that price I wouldn't pass it up. Like I said if the monitors clean that's a helluva deal. I'd jump on that Final Fight, but I can guarantee there's no Wayne, Oklahoma.

Off topic, but I first read the subject as "Might eat a neo geo soon."

I never said WHY I'm buying one ;)

Just to clarify, what do you mean by conversion? Is it just a different cabinet or is there something else different?

It's not like $250 is a steal for a Neo Geo. I'd hold out and wait for a real Neo Geo cab to come around.
