My rev. 5.0 mk1 arcade I got in 1999 was $300. I have no idea of current price ranges or worth. Does dedicated mean having the original cabinet with all the artwork? Cuz It's in a grungy old beat up plain black cabinet, complete with graffiti, cigarette burns, and initials carved into it. I think its cooler than a mint condition one. It even has high scores of long lost mk champs.

Yeah, dedicated means the original cabinet with the original artwork. Some people paint over a different game and paste on the MK2 artwork, but it's just not the same. I almost bought one on e-bay for $395, but I was outbid in the final SECOND for $420. I can get one for $500, but I would have no where to put it. I have to wait until I get out of college to buy one, because I don't know where I'll move to when I graduate - and I don't want to move that heavy thing from one state to another. I just hope I can find one in good condition in a couple years.
