EAST COAST GROUP BUY INTREST

[Kaike]

Haha yes I can't believe that was 7 years ago now.

Wow, 2013 lives again!

 

[Kaike]

Trying to find a new one as it seems ECL has ghosted. Found a Chinese company that has viewlix cabs tho.

Paging Jason Yaton. Paging Jason Yaton.

So right now I am talking with a supplier in Asia that has C & L Vewlix. Trying to see if they are the Japanese model or Chinese. Looks like its going to cost at least $800 a cab.

But I am really hoping to find someone to source all the sega candies that are leaving Japan due to the arcade closures.

What arcades are closing in Japan?

 

[Kaike]

The Abema Times website reported on Monday that there are only about 4,000 arcades in Japan as of 2018, down from the peak of 26,000 arcades in 1986.

Good luck with the group buy guys.

 

[Kaike]

Ok so I can definitely get Japanese C Model Vewlix for $800 a piece of we can get 30 cabs. I only want 1 so I’m looking to find 29 cabs counted for. This includes the intermodal shipping and all the fees. I think it’s pretty good. Would like to know what others think.

 

[ggallegos1]

Not a bad price, where would they get shipped to CONUS?

 

[Kaike]

Yeah im in the Danbury area. My step dad owns warehouses in New Milford (06776) that I shipped the last group buy to.

 

[Jack Burton]

I have been looking for one of these for a while. That is a good price, plus you were great to deal with last time. I was part of the group buy with the Blast Cities. 2013!!!!!

 

[Cousin_Itt]

I’d be down for a viewlix (maybe 2) for that price. Though I would rather have a blast or net city. When would you be making the order? I’m currently furloughed from work and don’t want to commit to anything immediately.

 

[Kaike]

Hopefully in a month or two.

 

[100proof]

Might be interested in a Vewlix or 2 but would need some serious pics to confirm legitimacy/condition (read: not Yaton).

I've been putting some serious thought into a candy cab lately, but I've never dealt with any of these group buys before.
I'm in Arkansas, so driving to either coast would be a massive PITA. Can extra be paid to freight one of these to Arkansas after it arrives at the primary destination, or is this strictly local pick up only?

 

[Neorebel]

He's got a guy

 

[Kaike]

I can post pictures later. These are in great condition, also this is not my first group buy, there are over 30 people on the forum who can vouch for me.

Honestly I get it but maybe driving might be best. It could be a fun trip. IF you have the money I could freight it but it will be pricey probably another $750. Can't be certain. If you get 2 I guess it's not that bad.

Replied to your post but forgot to quote you.

 

[Ralfakick]

If Wataru or White Castle or even daskrabs gets in, I would be interested in a vewlix and hopefully we could combine our run since we’re all relatively close to one another

 

[Dochartaigh]

I'm in Philly as well! - CT really isn't too far away. I'll keep track of this topic and look for when you post what they have, but for ~$800 with shipping I would definitely get one. I'll send you a PM Kaike.

They're good dudes. I remember Daskrabs was in my last group buy.

I'm unlikely unless there's an MV-U4/29 or a really nice NAC.

I might sell my new astro city, idk thinking about it.

 

[Neorebel]

Wondering what cab this would be for, I would need to look up the measurements to make sure I can get it up the stairs and into my apartment. Also would need to get an idea of the condition and price we are looking at.
