eBay is horrible for arcade machines, you'll overpay for lower quality

I would recommend watching this forum here: http://www.aussiearcade.com.au/forum...or-Sale-Arcade

...that or some kind of Craigslist equivalent like gumtree

EDIT: how about this one: http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/newto...ave/1031849300

Already gone sadly, there's a lot of resellers scouring gumtree, if your not fast you miss out, hopefully is hasn't gone to one of the many hire and sale places

Will check out the arcade forum

You ever find a machine?


over the holiday break I started building a dedicated "arcade room" and I've been working on modifying my DDR machine as well as that Donkey Kong.
