My Zac Cab Resortaion/Conversion
- Thread starter silverfox0786
- Start date
Guys, I can see this thread going sough rather rapidly! And let's not go there please!!!
1) A cab is the owners to do as they see fit.
2) If the artwork was gouged and shot, then WTF is someone meant to do when it's laminated sides? Not like you can go and get repro artwork for a Zacc cab from Arcadeshop or anything is it now?
3) It sounds like the cab has donated life to a bunch of others by having the salvageable parts sold off.
4) Any one person could have bought the cab off Olly instead, but didn't.
So, let's see what happens, eh?

I was very tempted to buy this cab when Olly put it up for sale. Unfortunately I was too late and it was already on hold for silver fox within 4 hours of it being advertised on jamma+.
How does that equate to nobody else wanting to take it?
I strongly suspect there would have been a queue of collectors desperate to buy it at the price, which was an absolute bargain and even included a £65 original Capcom Commando pcb iirc

it was on here for a few days, at the time i was not a registered member here but was on J+ so when it popped up there i made an offer to buy. i cant recall if it was 4 hours or more as i don't have access to that forums pages anymore.
but from what i recall there was a lot of nice cab, lovely artwork but i was the only one that committed to buying it.
between the 2 forums it was available for a few days for anyone to buy before me. and most people are members of both forums.
And the original intension as i said was to keep it original. if you watched the vid you will understand why it had to go

That is quite simply not true.
It was advertised for sale on JAMMA+ at 3.43pm and on UKVAC at 3.50pm the same day (18th January).
At 5.08pm the same day you posted on JAMMA+ saying that you would like to buy it, dependant upon Martin's delivery fee.
At 7.17pm the same day, Muddymusic posted on JAMMA+ that it was 'on hold' for you.
Unfortunately I saw the J+ thread at around 7.30pm that day.
I have watched the vid, and don't think the gauges are anywhere near bad enough to justify losing this artwork completely.
This is a complete travesty in my opinion. The only point I do agree with is that it was your property to do as you please with, however in hindsight I'm sure Olly will deeply regret selling the cabinet to you after seeing what has now become of it.

ugly lol
yes that's pauls site right, i go on there a lot
as for the art i would like to put it back as i did love that art and even better would be the same American colour version, but getting it sorted at a reasonable price is where the issue is
that's the one i refer to
That art is just awesome

Well yeah. His cab. Can do what he wants. No arguments there.
But if he's going to post on a public forum about it then its fair to expect a bit of flack.
