    Default Today I bought my second cab

    Today I picked up a Tekken 2 arcade upright for $200 dollars. It is fully working and the monitor is in excellent shape. It has a Jamma Harness inside with a Jamma board. I removed the marquee and fixed the coin returns. It is however in one of those s shaped cabs. But for $200 it was worth it. Here are some pics of it it is in my garage temporarily till I give it a cleaning.

    God damnit i want a arcade machine... Street fighter 2,pacman,asteroids or any other classic... Im so buying a arcade cab, but now it isnt possible... 14 is the worst possible age for a retro-collector. And Finland is the worst possible place for one too.

    But hey! awesome that you got that bad boy in your garage! Looks great!

    Not really, you can sell some really good finds you get. Im going to open up an amazon store and make a few hundred dollars and buy a cab off of craigslist

    its not that I can't afford a cab I just can't imagine how I'd get away with it once it showed up I'd have a bunch of people wanting to kill me! I need my own place but everywhere I move someone anyone always lives with me

    congrats on teh cab seems like a nice price. craigslist is great for finding local cabs and sometimes cheaply to! (or not..sometimes real expensive so be careful)

    That's a darn nice looking cab. I have a board for the original Tekken but no Tekken cab (if I want to play it I'll just hook it up in my Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter cab). I'm beginning to see that if you buy one cab, they'll quickly start multiplying (I picked up my first cab the last week of May and I'm now sitting at 3 (and almost picked up a fourth this weekend).
