The last thing folks here probably need is another handheld emulator, but folks over in bargain alerts are saying these are very good.

Has a Ciderdude SD card slot too to fit more games on.

Comes to something like €22 with this code 6e3c0c68f4

I'd love to, who knows what cabs are in it. The hassle of getting them from galway by the 6th of March though. Don't think I could do that.

30 cabs is that all, not much incentive there, bet there all slots/fruits,(grabs keys and hits the road) bit of short notice if he wants the shifted by the 6th

Stand up black cabs.
Leisure 2000s?
one of the worst things I ever did was sell my leisure 2000 mame cab
I sold it to my cousin tho so I'll get it back one day.

There was just something about it.it played wonderfully and was so reliable

ELG? He's actually a really decent chap! bought some stuff from me last year.

I'd have no interest in these cabs but would love to know what PCB treasures they may hide within... any Galway locals remember an arcade around those parts and what games they remember playing?

My first cab was the same sort of trad Brit cab, and I was happy to have it but even happier to trade for a Candy.

ELG is a decent lad. His cabs might be a little bit more than you'd like to pay for them but he keeps them in immaculate condition and makes sure that they get transported without any damages etc.

Most of the cabs you pick up for a hundred or two have been bashed about and require alot of restoration work.

You get what you pay for if you ask me.

Not a bad profit on 1.5k! :eek:

At one time I was considering dropping €750 on a MK2 cab on adverts. This was before I knew anything about arcade machines.

Funny how your opinions can change with a bit of experience!

Although, I'd still love a MK2 cab...
