There’s some hidden gem deals at Wal-Mart. I picked up a full size ping pong table for 149, a robot mop for $107, and what I suspect could be a great addition to my arcade, a rolling TV stand with shelf for $35-add a cheap 26-60” TV and a NWT/GRS Golden Tee or Crystal Castles Arcade Stick and you have a full size pedestal-style arcade cabinet for less than $500 total!!
@@PDX7 Thanks! I’m just wishing that I had preordered one of the Arcade Sticks! (I missed the Golden Tee preorder, and when Crystal Castles came out, I decided I wanted Golden Tee after all so now I have to wait for the launch. I’m kinda most excited for the TV stand-I wanted to wall mount a TV in the arcade, but most of the walls in there are concrete, so an adjustable rolling stand might be exactly what I’ve been searching for!
Hi PhilO. The temps are dropping and Angel is using me as a heating pad lol. Shipping costs from china have gone way up, hopefully they will come down some. Parts costs also are higher than I thought, you would be surprised how much the main playfield costs on the alp 4kp. Some of the a1up deals on amazon are decent but so many people sell cabs used around me all the time I am not worried about missing out on any a1ups.
Hi CarlO and AngelO, Loki was glued to me all night too :) it’s kind of nice having her there when I fall asleep and wake up. Thank you for the break down too it helps me a lot! Marketplace might be my destination later on for Shaq, you never know:)
If you're going to the Pinball Expo is 15th to 19th. As it is in Schmburg, IL you could aways stop at the Costco in Mettawa (of I 94) and pick up the JP Pinball on your way home. Just saying.
You can’t kick yourself for purchasing the figures, who would know that target would have them. I waited on KI Pro and look at what happened, I missed out completely. Maybe you can return them if unopened and get your money back.
I disagree on the thought that you should have waited in Robin. I feel like you go him at the right time … for you. Now that is done, you have had that hunt, those memories, and you have the set up at home that you’ll enjoy for a very long time to come. But yes, Shaq Jam on Black Friday … it’s only a few days away!!! (Sorta) 👊🏻😎🕹️
$959.99 original price on Galaga Deluxe is such BS. I paid $399 from Amazon the day it went up. I hope they cone out with an XL but it will probably be $599.
Pong pub is worth 299. But you've already spent more than your allowance sir! I'm done until I can get the ALP 4k. Pac deluxe, wof and Pong pub was the buys this year. Nothing left for me of interest.
@PDX7 I wanted twilight zone. As it stands Mars probably. Tho Jurassic has the art on the control deck area. I'm thinking about tax return time. Wife allowed of course.
Side note found a used TMNT cab for $600, is there a big difference between the two cabs that were released? This is not the turtles in time cab you have, but the other one.
That’s a good deal, if you decide to wait you’ll probably be able to get it Black Friday again. Do you have any extra spend x amount for 15 or more circle dollars on your app?
Thanks for these videos. I'm here every morning. I have the best deal ever for you! Its a hack that will save you at least 10% off every cab anytime regardless of sale price. It might make that Shaq Jam purchase super sweet for you when you're ready 😁
Great video Phil! I’m traveling home tomorrow. I’m going to buy me another arcade. Looking for a good sale on fast and furious. Wife thinks it’ll be a big hit. As crazy as it sounds. I may have to buy a 2nd Big Buck Hunter cab. Always 4+ kids here/ they stay on that game.
@@PDX7 I have the peasant cab with riser. Think it’s called world. I’m getting the deluxe for the new one. Don’t even care if it’s full price. My 2 kids and their friends play that arcade several hours a day. Worth its price in gold to me . What’s the cheapest that Fast and Furious arcade has been? Any ideas what kinda sale price I should leap on?
@fourthhorseman04 I like the peasant look and it’s cool if you had the deluxe to pair with it. F&F sometime last year ran a 399 sale it was the cheapest yet. 599 currently, I would guess it drops 50-100 by Christmas.
I'm going to see if our Targets in Portland area has Robin. We are 2 months behind most of the country on new stock. West Coast/East Coast bias.......West always comes 2nd lol.
@@PDX7Crazy how you look over and over for an item and then you find it right after you buy it online. It a Damn Conspiracy I tell you haha. Have a good day.
Just a heads up, in a workers comp claim for being stalked at CVS in Hyde park NY, workers comp, CVS and Hyde park NY to say the least are being corrupt. If it’s not a true crime of the manager setting me up then there’s a try to lure you away from your job stalker out there. 🎷
BTW, I'm never getting a cabinet that requires a separate riser again especially because once I've bought the GI Joel riser and custom art to finish the sides and kickplate I would have sunk in more money than getting a deluxe... haha
@@PDX7 Okay I might make an exception for that but I'd promptly commission a GI Joel riser for it.. and I'd prefer a rerelease as an Deluxe or XL provided they don't slim them up too much.. TBH they are all slim cady to some degree I've realized, haha... but not to the degree that the ones we call slim cady are slim...
@tamara_kama Joel does great work :) I guess it doesn’t matter if I have a riser it will be a deluxe with his inline conversion. I hope we’ve seen the last of the slims lol
@@PDX7 At least with the new Pac-Man they made it the full 15 inches that makes it thicker than the NBA Jam because on it that measurement was including the stabilizing foot and the Pac-Man doesn't need one but yeah.. Don't want them to be even slimmer than they already were.. the sideart was already having to be altered enough as it is with the added height haha
Good morning Phil, curious why my comment yesterday was deleted, was it because it had the wayfair link? Galaga vault, did they all come with stools? I just moved, and haven’t opened the box yet, but didn’t think mine came with a stool?
Good morning Mark, yes u believe so. Sometimes I add a link not sure if it sticks or not, but most cases a lot of comments could get deleted. My Galaga did not come with a stool, I just noticed the ones with stools recently not sure when they started to include them.
@@PDX7bet mine doesn’t, shame, love the stool!!!!! My comment from yesterday just said that I can get the 50th for $1100 and NBA Jam for $1249 from wayfair…..that’s basically the only option I have or drive 3 hours each way to Bangor, Maine.
Hey Phil. Are you glad you don't live in California lol? This is from spreetail the company who is selling the sf2 and galaga deluxe. I'm just glad I got mine last year before this....'Hello, We are not yet able to ship to California for selected items under the CARB/EPA laws. Please let us know if you need anything further. Spreetail is happy to help you with any other questions that you may have. Thanks, Spreetail Customer Experience Team'
Hi Alex, I remember you mentioning this to me a few weeks ago I completely forgot about it. I don’t understand why Spreetail can’t ship to CA, but others can. Unfortunately I think they hold all the cards with Galaga and SF2..
@@PDX7 Oh did I? I might have. I just emailed them 5 min ago and was curious if anything has changed since 6 months ago or so and apparently they still don’t ship here. I wonder what changed in 2024. Last year I had no prob getting the sf2 deluxe from them and like you said they hold the monopoly on some items
@pxp751 it’s weird because Costco has GT in CA and Best Buy is selling them too, maybe Spreetail is out of the country and that’s the issue coming into the ports west coast.
I cannot stand it when my coffee is super-hot. 1:56 "it's really hot". LOL that was great.
lol there’s hot and then super hot :)

If I wouldn’t have bought GT back in 22 I probably would’ve been on board with NWT too, the stand will be perfect for trackball.
Last October Antonline had MK Deluxe, Pac Man Deluxe and Class of ‘81 for $339.99 plus free shipping.
I wanted all three but I did get the MK Deluxe.
339.99 is an awesome price for your MK2, hopefully history repeats itself this fall. There’s a ton of Pacman and Class of 81 out there.

Dude if I could I would, but it’s a little out of my price range maybe at 3k :)
Sto-Core across from Enterprise Rent a Car makes me think of Sto-Vo-Kor the afterlife for Klingons in Star Trek, haha
lol nice!
Good luck with that vault galaga. That's what I have, and it's already messing up. Ticket opened. Thanks for the video.
I’m sorry it’s still giving you trouble Thomas.
I'm waiting to see what all the black friday deals will be!
Hoping it’s better than what we saw this week, if you could get a sale on one cab which would you pick?
I paid the typical $499 on my Street Fighter II Championship Edition Dynamo HS-5 Deluxe when I bought mine on Amazon..
I got lucky ordered right away for 399, but it did jump to 499 pretty quick.
You can’t kick yourself for purchasing the figures, who would know that target would have them. I waited on KI Pro and look at what happened, I missed out completely. Maybe you can return them if unopened and get your money back.
It’s a lesson learned I guess, just have to be more patient and some stuff is either meant to be or isn’t :)
I disagree on the thought that you should have waited in Robin. I feel like you go him at the right time … for you.

I couldn’t believe it when I looked up from the Riddler lol
Thanks Ted I needed that 👊
Damn should of waited on that Time Crisis, oh well….you just never know
Nope if we did we’d get every thing for 399 or less :)
$959.99 original price on Galaga Deluxe is such BS. I paid $399 from Amazon the day it went up. I hope they cone out with an XL but it will probably be $599.
I know they’re not fooling anyone with that 959.99 lol XL would be awesome next to the Pacman and Ms Pacman you’re waiting for!
Im sick of rehash cabinets!! Need new titles!!! Give us a Narc Smash T.V cabinet Arcade 1 up!!!!!
We’ve been waiting too long! I agree narc and Smash tv need to happen 👊
Pong pub is worth 299. But you've already spent more than your allowance sir! I'm done until I can get the ALP 4k. Pac deluxe, wof and Pong pub was the buys this year. Nothing left for me of interest.
Which skin would you get?

@bonesjackson81 I like it :) would you still keep original legends pinball?
@PDX7 probably. Be a pain to sell. Sure don't want some dbag coming to my house to buy it.
BRO! How do you not pickup the Pokémon card to see which one it was??? We will never know now!!!
lol if it’s meant to be it will be there next time :)
Side note found a used TMNT cab for $600, is there a big difference between the two cabs that were released? This is not the turtles in time cab you have, but the other one.
Hi Mark, so if it’s the OG artwork no online on this cab. Turtles in time is the only one that will connect. If you can find that for 600 I’d do it.
@@PDX7it’s the OG artwork, no online, I’ll pass. Thanks for the info!!!!
@baldmar5083 I hope you find turtles in time 🐢
I am seriously considering the Galaga Deluxe. With the Circle Card at Target that is 403.75 and free shipping.
That’s a good deal, if you decide to wait you’ll probably be able to get it Black Friday again. Do you have any extra spend x amount for 15 or more circle dollars on your app?
@@PDX7 No. .15 cents lol. I don't shop at Target very often.
@thequarterdeckarcade trust your gut and think about it all day :)
@@PDX7 Yup :)
Galaga Deluxe is a great cabinet. I swapped the marquee with a Szabo's one and put a BuyStuffArcades mini riser on it.
You have the best vides...
