Massachusetts.
I'm swinging by my parents tonight / tomorrow I think it was all just glued/fitted together. Don't remember any visible nails/screws.

I'll check though

You can send it via DHL or another similar large freight company, but be warned that shipping WILL be expensive.

In some of the listings I saw on eBay, some people said they would be disassembled and others just said shipped whole.  I saw the shipping was around $35 or so for the whole one.  I'm interested in getting one, but funds will be low after buying a Wii U, Black Ops II, NSMBU, and some accessories.  I've got $150 left to pay on the system, and $30 on Black Ops II, still have to shell out $60 for NSMBU.

I once made the mistake of smelling a NES cart.  Man, the last guy that blew in it must have had bad breath, because it smelled like a sack full of assholes.

Found this on a local Craigslist ad, just wondering if it's a good deal.

I'd say that is pretty good if everything works.

Thanks Duke.  It's only one town over from mine, but picking it up and hauling it to my house would be a pain.

An arcade cab, priced less than $300 and in good working condition, is almost always worth the cost unless the game itself is terrible.  Of course it can't look like crap.

Relax, I can fix it.

I wouldn't hesitate a second to pick up that MvC2 machine for $275, even with the bit of a drive it sounds like you might have.

Just rent a truck for a day. Couple tie down straps, a handtruck and some moving blankets and you'll be done in no time. You can rent everything from the same place if you don't have it.

Roof of your car, bungie straps and a tarp. Common man, do it up classy!

Just make sure you tie a little flag to it if it hangs off the back of your car. I know thats the law here in MA.
Also if you have the ability to get the cab you should do so.

I used my S10 Xtreme (yes it was a truck made in the 90s) to pick up my OutRun Cab.   It wasn't too bad, just the lifting and getting it in my house was the hard part.  I have terrible timing, I'm about to have to shell out some $$$ for a Wii U and some games.  I guess I should be happy that I was able to preorder one from Wally World.

I have one of these carts, though a bit different than the ones already posted. And just so you know, they're not really anything worth writing home about. They're made of cheap particle board and I don't think they were even licensed products.
They're worth picking up if you can find a cheap one locally, but not worth over $20 IMO.

Yeah, my friend had one when I was a kid.  It was cheap particle board, or at least his was.  I always thought they were licensed, or at least the ones that said Nintendo were.  I may be wrong though.
