So Im getting ready to go to my sons football game. I get a call from a local pinball collector. He tells me there is a guy thats moving, and needs to sell some machines. He gives me his number, and tells me I should call. he said the guy was moving and having a garage sale tomorrow. he said I might want to get out there tonight.

So I called. And asked if I could come out tonight after the game, he said sure. The guy had 6 arcades for sale. He told me that all the machines were from 1982. He told me the story of a arcade that opened in 1982. The arcade closed 8 months later. He has helped the arcade owner one day when 3 guys jumped and tried to rob him. he jumped into the fight and the robbery did not happen. So when the owner closed the arcade he offered to sell to this guy first. All of these machines have been in his house since 1983:cool:

My jaw dropped when I saw the condition of the Gravitar. I also bought a near Mint Zaxxon, i could not resist:D

if you lived in uk you would have a lot less on the list than you currently have,asteroids seem to be the vector game that is more common when they are for sale.after that you basicly have a long wait and a long search ahead.

me i have a star castle that needs some slight attention,a great game and when i bought it a great bargain and find,i didnt hesitate to buy it.

Not to piss on your thread Dan, but. I had TWO color vectors dropped off at my house last night :)

RadArcades Black Widow came up from San Jose, and Fullthrottle brought me down a Space Duel from Freckeledpeas in Chehalis.

Both games came in after 11 PM, well worth staying up for :)

Sweet list. I have a few other vectors too:) funny I also have a 2nd battlezone, Armor Attack, and HUO Star Trek.

The Star Wars/ EBS is Clays Kit its awesome.:cool:

Yes, ALSO post some photos of your arcade!!

I think that the Zaxxon would look NICE in MY basement.

Steve

I will take some new pics of my game room after I get Gravitar and Space Duel in. Steve you are wencome to come down and play:)

I did go back to the sellers house today. I took some pics of the Gravitar and the Zaxxon. Im going to pick up both games early next week. The Gravitar is easy in the Garage. the Zaxxon is in the basement and we cant get it out of the room until he moves the pool table.

I will post some pics after my football game is over:D
