At one point I was interested in getting a Street Fighter 4 cab, the Taito Vewlix F. I only had email contact with CoinOP, but the initial word was "Yes" we can get them... So I started asking relevant questions like price, shipping, quantity discount (for potential group buys), etc. After a delay in communication, I was finally contacted again... Only this time they said the F wasn't available, they could only get the L version.
While not a bad cab by any means, the L is known for being less feature rich. No illuminated move strip, no Samsung LCD, made in China not Japan. I found it strange the F was still listed on the company website, yet I was being told they only had L's. Later I decided that while SF4 is a great game, the benefits of owning the CRT cab far outweighed that of an LCD... So I made arrangements to buy the Blast City I currently own.
While I have no proof of anything dishonest ever taking place, the whole deal had a vibe of bait-and-switch about it. Reel 'em in with the F, dump the cheaper L, tell them its basically the same cab.
