Not cool. My freind just got a NeoGeo 1 slot with Last Resort, and a lot other games, and a cabinet and a monitor and "controller" for $50 CAD.

Im Serious. There was a HUGE arcade auction like 1 hour away from my house. One neogeo cabinet went for $25!

Anyone have any similar experience? Like where someone you know or you getting a arcade machine for CHEAP?

My friend found one at a garage sale for $100. It was beat up but he got a new monitor installed and it looked great.

I'd buy all I could and sell it on eBay :P .

How much could I expect to make from a good MAME cabinet, for private use, not commercial?

Are you talking about making your own and selling it ?

Yup. I don't think it will be too hard for me. A challenge, yes, but not too hard to make a quality piece of work.

You would be hard pressed to actually sell the thing on Ebay, since they take those auctions down. The best you could do is a kit into which someone could place their own computer. Ebay kinda stinks that way...
Emulation isn't accurate. There is no substitute for real hardware!

It is not junk! It is assorted goods with no current use.
