FS Egret 2/Windy 2/NNC/Q25 (Repair refund)

For Sale
@ReplicaX is pretty much the only person you'll stumble across with this much knowledge of this cab. In the small circle of friends I have in this hobby, I feel each one of us has a specific cab that we're extremely knowledgeable about, and the Q25 is his wheelhouse for sure.

Looks like one 40ft container is already heading to the UK (roughly 36 cabs, unless they make it two story):

Not sure why the seller is trying to pass them off as coming from Japan, but there you go.

It looks like them based on the row of cabs but at least he is selling them at an excellent price and not trying to charge an arm an a leg.

as much as this blows to get outscooped, this is exactly the point that SNK was trying to make earlier. This hobby is so fucking cut throat at this point that you can't hesitate. You gotta shit or get off the pot as my grandfather used to say.
 
Now, Im still in to get a couple E2s, maybe a Windy, a NNC cause they look pretty minty,

and a Q25 if it has the rotate mech/joystick cp, good crt, etc... :D
The wood, well, if its rotted, I would have my buddy that does woodwork for a living remake the entire woodframe in his cnc/milling machine setup if needed, etc..
 
Disappointed to hear about the Q25s.

If they go through, I am still in for one with a rotating mechanism. Control panels can be fabricated, wood can be recut, but until someone repros that mechanism, it's not a findable item.

If they don't come through it's just back to the hunt. And in that event I'd at least like to hear the pricing on the Windy.

I'll still offer storage whether I get something from the lot or not.
 
Like Derick2k said money is king and being local I have the upper hand (I think). Once I secure the cab I will start posting pricing. I can only really afford 1 container shipment out of pocket. For the other 1 I will have to take a 50% deposit to offset the cost. If you want to back out you need to find a new buyer. Money will only be refunded if deal fall through or cargo ship sink. I was not exspecting to spend my morning like this

That's fine.

Cyber lead - So, so (Depend if my guy want to take the rest)

Just to be clear I'm only interested if it's a Cyberlead II, it's not clear if they're all CL1s or if there are any CL2s available from the photos.

@twistedsymphony how can you tell? What are some indicators

From what I know a CL2 should have these upgraded over the CL1:
- tri sync screen (instead of MS9)
- color LED display (instead of red only)
- PSX and DC memory card slots

But I’ve seen CL2’s with the same monitor or LED display as the 1’s, so it looks like to be a mixed bag.
Also the card readers might have been optional back in the day

^this... I think the card readers were optional on the CL1s but standard on the CL2s (I could be wrong), the big thing for me is the multicolor LED display and Tri-Sync monitor.
 
Multicolor display was likely also either an option or an upgrade, I'd assume. As I've seen a lot of Cyberleads with card readers and tri-sync but without the multicolor display.

The only thing that's really really certain is that CL1 did not come with a tri-sync monitor and CL2 did. That's not to say a CL1 never got a CL2 monitor as a replacement or anything else either though, so at this point maybe they're indistinguishable from one another?

Cyberleads are a mysterious bunch. I wonder if anything useful could be found in their serial numbers.

I feel the same way. I never touched an Aero table or city before. Same with others in our circle. Mini Cute, Neo19, and more until I got to lay my hands on them from other friends.

Also while I am documenting as much as I can on the Q25 when I have time. I'm doing so as I know there has to be more hiding out there for potential owners. Why when I saw the pics, I got excited for others possibly getting there hands on one.
 
A 25" k7000 will fit in an Aero vertically on the factory holes in the frame. It will fit horizontal as well, but you will need to adjust the holes to fit the Aero mounting bolts.
