    The only place I've ever actually seen these for sale non-commercially is on ebay (about 7months ago I was also after one). All other internet sites I found were soley aimed at leased ownership.

    Anyway just to let you know why I didn't get one in the end was all due to price reasons. I was quoted £2500 for a secondhand TopSkater in OK condition.

    Way outta my league.

    lmfao. You know, I actually thought hey cost a fair bit more. Places with arcades like Hollywood bowl, must absolutely rake it in.

    (|Slink|): if i bought a jamma cabinet, would any jamma pcb game work in it?
    (Bradf0rd): the question you should ask yourself is, 'if i get a jamma cabinet, will I still work after nic sticks a knife into me?'
    (|Slink|): i think she'd be upset if i bought a big 2 way car arcade machine nextyear


    :clap:
