You know what's funny about this hobby?
You never know when that one thing, that single item, maybe even that one game that made you start collecting all this videogame stuff in the first place is going to pop up right under your nose.
I've been buying and selling (mostly buying) arcade cabinets since 1995 now. For almost ten years, I've been looking for one particular game. Well, that's not exactly true -- I look for dozens of games, but there's been one that I've never been able to find at a decent price. Hell, it's getting pretty hard to find, and when you DO find 'em, they usually come with either a long list of things that need fixing as well, or a way too high price tag.
Anyway, last Friday, two days before my birthday, I finally got one.

I hate to even post it yet because I haven't picked it up, but from everything the guy's said, the machine's in great shape (or good enough for me, at least). I've got a special place waiting in my little home arcade for this baby.
