EDIT: Updated to reflect remaining stock. 4/17/2025, only #7 and #11 AW cabinets remain. Original post below.


Just obtained these cabinets and wanting to see if there's any interest in these "as-is" before I dive into restoring these. If you've been looking for a good deal on a centrally located candy cab this is it. I have 7x Versus City cabinets, 13x Atomiswave, 3 Blast City and 1 Capcom Impress. No gameboards and the monitors are in various states of repair, notes below. A previous technician has marked the rear of several of the Atomiswave cabinets regarding the monitor condition (ie. wobbly or bad h-hold, etc...). I've copied those notes to the list below, you can view a photo of them in each respective file folder on the google drive images.

I haven't cleaned or tested a single thing yet, so truly "as-is" right now.

Asking $500 for #5 (missing monitor) and #9 (monitor and chassis present, but neck is cracked :/ ), and $1k -$2k for each of the others, condition dependent. Located in Houston TX and I'm willing to ship anywhere in the USA via Beltman for $500. PM me which one you're interested in!

Hey friends, #4 Atomiswave is sold

I have tested most of them now, many of the cabinets have signs of life in the monitors (including the Impress). I will update all PMs and this thread on Monday with more informaton. Not selling any over the weekend so everything but atomoswave #4 is still available!
 
Can you ship anywhere in the country via beltmann for $500? Last I got a quote for them on a candy, it was well over that for a shorter distance, so the number seems a bit low sadly.

If it is the case you can meet that number, I might be interested.
 
I had a cab shipped coast to coast for not much more, so I imagine TX to anywhere is (probably?) possible. Would be strange for OP to make the claim if they couldn't deliver on that price (or are just choosing to eat the difference).

In any case, I am both happy and sad that I am not in a position to buy. Happy because I don't need another cab, sad cause I wouldn't mind another AWSD. ;)

Prices seem good to me!
GLWS!
 
Having shipped larger arcade cabinets to NY and Cali from here for around $650 or so, I figured a flat rate of $500 and eating the difference is the simplest and most attractive thing I can offer.

Lots of messages in my inbox, will keep everyone posted!

EDIT: Initial D 8 has cabinet power (marquee, fans and monitors come on) but the game boards are not booting. Will dive deeper but willing to consider "as-is" offers. Stick haven't tested "Cobra The Arcade" and I haven't been able to find any comps on it whatsoever, seems uncommon.

Did you mention ID8 and Cobra in the OP? I think I missed that...

Curiously, if you're willing to share - what's the story behind this dragon's hoard? Leftovers from a container? Bought out an Arcade? Remnants of Planet Zero? ;)
 
ID8 and Cobra are in the first post but I think it's cut off below the "expand" hamburger at the bottom. They're available though!

I can only make assumptions about the provenance of these cabinets but looking at the Planet Zero tags, yeah these probably all came from there. It seems the previous owners wanted to make a few bucks while the machines were in storage, hence all the missing game boards.

There's a very sad Pump it Up machine in the collection available as well - the game cabinet and two pads with handle bars, but it looks pretty rough. I'll take pics if anyone is interested in that.

There's also a couple american cabs that were retrofitted to fighting games. No game boards but there's a monitor and controls in each. Probably not worth shipping but if any local buyers are interested they can be $200. There's a Hit the Ice (with MvC2 marquee) and Williams Omni cab (with SF2 marquee)

Ah yep, silly me. Started poking around in the Drive photos and there it is! Did you buy out their storage unit or something?

I don't think I see ID8 or Cobra in the OP at all... think I'm going nuts.

Yeah something happened, I remember typing it out! I'll edit the first post to include those details.

Lots of PMs to sort through, I'm no good at keeping track of everything on my phone so I'll organize it all on Monday from my computer.
 
I am mildly interested in the Pump it Up. If you want to post pics and/or info I'll consider it and for sure send it around to my rhythm gaming contacts.
