Hey,

I don't think there is a similar post, where we could indicate what cabs can be easily converted from 110 to 220V after import.
I start working on mines, does anyone if any of this can be converted or if an external power transformer is compulsory :

- TRON
- Donkey Kong
- Escape from Planet of Robot Monster
- Star Wars

If you want, you can indicate below if you already made some power transformer conversion and I will try to sum up everything on this first post.

Thanks,
Valentin

Same opinion here. I already noted the forum activity was slowing down since few months (it was even more obvious with the container activity).
For me reason is simple, as you said, most of you are in his 40s or 50s with collections almost complete or looking in new directions.

This is visible, less project, less cheap midway cabs... More higher end cabs. I see the result of a mature market.

I don't think the forum's name is a big deal, because most important european collectors know about DLF. Changing it would bring the new generation, the one looking for japanese cabs only. But is it really what we like here ? DLF is the bastion of old dedicated cabs.

But if we have less post, the quality remains. No sterile debates, no shitty topics, no request for valuation only...

Shipping 1 machine to USA cost over 1000euro, so for sure it was never sent back to USA.

After all the mess, I know Thomas had few machines left in Europe. I gave me a list I published here but nobody never took them.
Some people also alerted me about machines for sale in USA that were his.

I guess we will never know...

Which DX cabs he have there?

No one anymore.

26
Can you email me pics? Did you take some.

Probably 1. Email me again, not sure I still have yours.

There is no price per machine, we have to make an offer for the whole batch. You can offer whatever you want.

Also Wild Gunman Nintendo, rifle and gun are available. Very rough!

I went back to see the operator this saturday. He wants crazy money but understood he is far from the reality.
He made some cleaning and I had a better sight at the machines. Cabs are in average conditions... Here is what is left to join our offer :

Guided Missile (looks nice but I could not see the sides)
Gunfight (side weared)
Kasco Clay Shooting (looks nice)
Kasco The Driver (could not see it, was packed in the middle)
Motorcycle (so, so)
Speedway x2 (BG so so)
Nintendo Battle Shark
Namco F1 - fucking huge !

There are many Model Racing cabs if someone is interested.

I would like to get back to him this week.

Huge deluxe cabs are too expensive, let's forget them.
