Hey Guys....
In my current purge I'm moving towards a state where I think its best to tout whats "on the shelf" and awaiting new homes. Nearly all prices are flexible, negociable and only a 1-2-1 convo via PM will work.
I'm basing shipping as using Martin "the Deliveryman" as he is the uber man of  deliveries and indeed we all need to support him to keep him on the road regardless that his prices has been forced up thru fuel surcharges out of his control! Expect an approximate cost of £80 per machine door-to-door... in the uk.... Perhaps when Ully comes in the summer he can take some back to germany with him??

Most of these machines have initial pictures at http://www.retrokade.com/sales but indeed Im happy to add more info and pictures when people enquire upon request! Also the prices are negociabe and a guideline but obviously a discount is available for multiple purchases.
 
1942/1943/Street Fighter
This is a USA capcom machine, originally a street fighter 1 but currently has its sideart removed and 1943 sideart, bezel and marquee installed. I have the sf1 bezel (a bit munched),pcb (untested), marquee if someone wanted to go sf1, but the real trick is SF2, i have a nos marquee, and sure i have a bezel and the cp which will fit. Just add pcb (el cheapo booty even!). If the 1942/1943 route is wanted to be preserved i have a 1943 cpo, but the pcb in the cab is dead for whatever reason - sorry about that.
£345
 
Bubbles
This is the only known one in existence, possibly a proto?? Its obviously made by the same people as the euro-Robys, this timepiece is quite unique! The game is fully working on original components, and sports a beautiful picture. The cab is complete bar the lower coin door, and the artwork on the control panel is worn like a euro roby, but plays like a dream!
£695
 
Centipede
Shell in a 7/10 condition. Have new side art, has new control panel rebuilt with lovely trackball. New bezel, pcb working alough i also have a millipede pcb with a multigame kit and adapter as an option (+£90).Apart from the monitor (which I can find or if new owner wants to spend +£350 have a nos one) this is a cab on its way to being a fully restored beauty.
Take over from me? £425 and it yours..
 
Elevator Action - UNDER OFFER
PCB and Cab working, original horizontal Taito Mk.2 cab. The monitor has a neckboard issue which I'm hoping is an easy fix as the display sorta has a transistor stuck on (its a g07) but the games visable, playable etc Nos bezel, nos cpo, this machines a beaut.
Hoping for £395
Alternative option is : Pacland
Taito cab converted with proper harness, marquee, control panel and pcb to Pacland. Would be the best way to get a pacland in the UK. I have the pcb (plus spare) plus the original parts for a factory game-change to make this happen. This taito is ideal as it's also horizontal as is pacland.
Suggesting £495
 
Flicky
An uber rare of uber-rare games. This Bally classic is in a convert-a-game cab and if anyone out there, like me , wants to preserve a dedicated Flicky with its artwork, game, fully working and trully worth saving, Im taking a hit at £495, otherwise it will be ruthlessly converted to a vertical game, up'n'down if someone doesnt save it!!!! All working, a subliminal title!
 
Joust 2
Also my USA joust is on ebay... But this is the next level. Very rare, fully working - has the exploding Williams rocks sideart proving its the rarist proto builds from what I know. I have installed a new monitor, artwork is impeccable. Just a rare game seeking a new home.. £785 takes it!
 
Juno First
A UK classic as forged by Junoman!  A great game. Ill fix it but currently in cocktail mode (its an upright goddamnit, stupid dips) and left on the joystick not working but again probably an interface issue. Genuine Gottlieb Juno First cab, mint artwork, 8/10 cpo, bezel etc and fully working. Love the game, but would love the space back a bit more... £825
 
Omega Race
Game pcb still works (at the last test), monitor dead. Price indicates sold with a spare vector to make good. Cab in beautiful condition. Often ignored its such a great game... Im looking for £425 for the cab, plus a working 19" vector to make it whole. Artwork is mint. A bargain for a trully great game!
 
Reactor
Cabs immaculate, trully a totem cab, and has a new cpo and trackball fitted. Plus a new switcher and adapter to replace the gopping original linear. On the downside Im awaiting a edge connector from the USA  to make a adapter to attempt to fix the pcb myself - i think its  a  minor ram issue but until I make the adapter i cant work or diagnose the pcb or be certain. So rare its expected to be the only European one.. I paid £1200 for it... Im open to discussions to its new home...
 
Road-blasters
An Atari great often overlooked... Cab still needs testing but mentioned here incase someones keen... £395 with spare mobo and daughter card...
 
Silent Scope
Currently has a power supply issue - Im about to buy a replacement but otherwsie considered a worker.. £185 steals it now and you grab a pc >20A switcher and get yourself a bargain!
 
Space Dungeon
This has been tagged to a Vaccer but maybe coming up for general sale as funds might be needed elsewhere. Robotron-esque this is a trully totem cab in the USA with its black and cyan taito sideart. Fully works, but has a slight sound issue - i think the amp(s) are sick as there is allot of crackles when your playing. Offerred at what I paid £825
 
Midway Space Invaders
Fully working, has a bad transisitor on the montior chasiss and so the screen has collapsed to  a horizontal line. £425 and its yours for a easy fix as the pcb is working.
 
Tokyo Wars
Twin sitdown. Has one bad pcb sayinga ram fault - I have 4 spares so Im sure it can be fixed. Feckin great multiplayer battlezone frankly... Just want a new home for it £405 presuming we fix it before it leaves
 
Virtua Racing
Half way thru fixing the monitor (vertical collapse) subject to me fixing it now the parts are here, am asking £285 for it as a full working upright...
 
Feel free to PM questions or offers... All machines visitable at my place near Portsmouth.. Feel free to ask questions!
 
Obviously answer any questions you may have... Regards R!

Dont knwo if its of interest in here before I tout it esleweher, but what with all of you seemign to be in love with Nintendo cabs and this conatiner of them coming in, would anyone be interested in a Radarscope "kit"

When I say that I have a bezel, Control panel, spare CP and a pcb (cant seem to locate the marquee at the minute  ???)

I've takens some pictures:

http://www.retrokade.com/sales/cabs/?gallery=56&page=1

The pcb is untested (tho I might try and make up a jamma loom albeit it will be inverted). It does have 3 broken mb7072 rams but I've got those to fit.

Cheers Rav

Well, at long last I managed to plug in all the games that work at my place tonight as had a visitor Superully come to collect some machines. Its a bit dark and gloomy in places but I'll have to work on illumination for these videos :)
 
Anyhow, 28 cabs running and thought it worth taking a few shots anyhow:

Hi guys!

Slim chance I know, but has anyone got or know of a Dual screen nintendo cab for sale or trade?

So if you can help - thanks in advance

Regards Rav

Well - you guys here at DLF have certainly made an impact on me and so last Saturday, as I whizzed about the UK - I kept a journal and put pictures on my facebook account. Just to test the waters I also made a quick web page out of it..

http://www.retrokade.com/news/roadtrip-100424/

Dunno if its an interesting read, or indeed worth a post - but I had a great time and against all odds - I got me some cabs too :)
