Does anyone know of a place that sells empty cabaret sized cabinets assembled or in kit form? I'd like one for a MAME cab. I know I could buy a cabaret sized machine and gut it but every cabaret game sells for a lot of $$. I've seen the sites that sell full sized cabs for MAME but I want something smaller and that I can easily move. Also, I once saw a site that sold Japanese style cabs that you sit down at to play. Kinda like a regular cab but much shorter. Know anyone who sells these for a good price?

Treetsux, a cocktail and a cabaret are not the same thing. A cabaret has the same type of shape as a regular upright cab, but is smaller.

I know of a guy in St. Louis who had a Space Firebird cabaret already converted to MAME for sale not long ago. Seems like he was asking somewhere in the neighborhood of $300-$400 for it. If this is something you might be interested in I'll put you in touch with him.

That game was at the auction on April 4 here in St. Louis. I didn't catch the price of it (wish I did)

Does it have an RGB monitor in it or a PC monitor? How much does it cost to ship a game that size? The prices for shipping full sized cabs on Ebay fluctuate wildly.

Oh well if it was at the auction he may have sold it. I think it has an RGB monitor, but I'm not sure. If you like feel free to PM me your email address and I'll pass it on to him.

I have no idea what it costs to ship a cab. Pretty pricy I would imagine.
