Hello, long time no post 
some of you may know me from other forums, some of you may not, but for those of you who don't if you want to take a minute and go through some of my post history on here you will get a good idea of what i'm about and what I like (namely Japanese Candy cabs and similar)
A bit of background:
Since our last group order of Candy Cabinets earlier in the year and in September 2006 which we organised as a "Group Order" using another forum
many people have emailed or PMed myself & "Vib Ribbon" about another possible cabinet order. In truth, we had never stopped looking, but what we had been offered didn't meet our demands for quality and affordability.
We had a lot of support from the forum we used and its members, and between our last 2 orders, we managed to bring in Taito Egret 2, AWSD, Windy 1 and Windy 2 cabinets. We even brought in 20 RiverService stools in the last cabinet order as well to go with the cabs.
We think we've learnt a lot from these orders which we can take onto the next order to provide a better service to all
The next order:
Cabinets can change hands very quickly. Sometimes we can be offered some cabs on Monday night, and by Tuesday morning they would have been sold to someone else by our suppliers. We knew we had to act quickly to secure the more desirable cabs which forum members have asked us for. It would have been difficult to repeat what we did the last time, getting enough people to commit before we went ahead.
So based on the good relation we have forged with our suppliers and the faith that we have on the support of the forum and the community, we have placed an order for 8 Sega Blast City cabinets and 10 AWSD cabinets. We have attached some photos of the actual cabs and you can appreciate the condition based on their young age.
1/ Cabs and their specifications:
8x Sega Blast City - with original spec Tri Sync Nanao 29" monitor, CP arrangement is not yet confirmed, but most are believed to have original Sega Blast City CP's fitted
10 x AWSD - these are also original spec Tri Sync Wei Ya 29" FST monitor with 1player 6 button CP's. Some will have replacement Egret 2 or 3, 2L8B or 2L12B CPs.
All cabinets will have their native 110v PSU and Japanese coin mech.
The Sega Blast City has often been described as the Rolls Royce of cabs, and we think the AWSD is a quality Tri-Sync alternative at a very affordable price.
2/ Costs:
Blast City = £1250
Atomiswave SD = £675
prices are ex works Sheffield, UK, unpacked.
NB: Due to the overwhelming interest in the 8 Blast City cabinets in this order. We regret to inform they are all sold.
We always try our best to factor into the asking price the cost of warehouse, hire of forklift/ pallet truck, cleaning materials and other contingency costs so if anything gets damaged during transit from Japan, we'll have the means to fix them without having to ask for more money from our customers. If there isn't much that needs doing, we spend the money on new sticks and buttons etc. In the unlikely event that we have under-calculated the total costs of these cabs, we will contact you ASAP to work out a satisfactory resolve between us.
3/ Due Date:
We are working with the supplier to get ourselves booked on a vessel. The unconfirmed date of dispatch is November 1st 2007.
Christmas can be a busy period so I will confirm once date is confirmed.
Previously, it's been 1 month from Japan to UK and a few weeks for testing.
4/ If I pay now do I get the best cab?
We like to operate on a level playing field so it's a first come first served basis. The best cab will be picked for you based on your payment order and your specified requirements (eg, preference on number of buttons on the CP etc)
5/ Does it come with any warranty?
No, but mr meg will give each machine a thorough check through and make any fixes he sees necessary. You are welcome to arrange a viewing of the cabs in Sheffield. We pride ourselves in our aftersales and we will always do our best to help on email or on the forums.
6/ Can you deliver?
We intend to use the same freight forwarding companies as the last time. We take every precaution that the cab will arrive at your doorstep the way they leave the warehouse. As an example of our rates which includes palleting and bubble wrap packing... Within the UK = GBP100, Rest of Europe = GBP250 ~ GBP300. You are also welcome to come pick up in person given prior arrangement.
7/ How do I pay?
If you are in the UK, by cheque, bank transfer, or cash at a Natwest.
If you are in Europe, by international bank transfer in Pounds Sterling.
Please either drop me (Mr-Megalo) a PM or drop "Vib Ribbon" an email on chunwah @ gmail . com (<---remove the spaces) for full payment details and any other queries you may have. Thanks. I'll also update this list when needed.
We hope everyone can show us the same level of support that had made the first 2 orders the success that they were, as we always endeavour to promote and support the arcade gaming community!
