Arcade and pinball auction 12/3 Itasca, IL

Phooey, I wish I knew about this one earlier. These always seem to fall on weekends when my wife has to work at the hospital and I'm solo with our 5 yr old. Ah well...
 
went. had 3 pins. jungle queen went for $1550 or so. Star Wars with good play field and messed up backglass went for $1400 and old EM beat time went for something silly. Stopped paying attention at that point. The play field was trash on it too.

I loved the backglass on the Star Wars pin though. Lando looked like he had a huge hanging booger.

I picked up a Blasteroids that was in decent shape. They had a neo geo 4 slot that was a little worn. Ms. Pac in a Pac cab and a Ms. Pac/ Galaga anniversary that was a bit rough. Super Off Road, Mortal Kombat, Aero Fighters and Shuffleboard in dynamo cabs, Midway Invasion conversion. Sega Top Skate, San Fran Rush, Cruisin World, Metal Slug 5 in a single slot conversion, Sammy Demolition Fist, Emergency Ambulance call, 5 or so varying golden tees, few trackball bowlers. It wasn't quite as good as last year with probably the oddball being the Blasteroids. No cranes at all though.

Any idea on what the Cruisin World sold for??

Been looking to pick one up(dedicated of course).

So thats why there were arcade machines on trailers in my neck of the woods. I spent the whole day moving already owned cabs, a juke and a pin into storage. I rented a box truck and everything, I really wished I knew about this sooner.

Yeah they really didn't advertise like they did last year. Not sure if they just wanted a small crowd or what but they mailed flyers to everyone who bid last year and sent out an item list friday night and posted on CL Saturday morning. Someone might've dropped the ball but there was a decent amount of people anyhow.
 
I ended up getting the Blasteroids for $210. My buddy got the 2 San Francisco Rushes and is looking to sell then to make some cash to afford his mortgage.
