Right down the road as a matter of fact. My friend owns an auction house and is having an auction this coming Tuesday. He invited me over to look at what they had so far and to see if there was anything I wanted before the auction.

I'm probably taking a claw machine and maybe a pin if the price is right. So far I spotted a Ms Pacman in somewhat rough condition. Cab seemed to be pretty solid although dirty. It powered up but nothing on the screen. Needs a back door. Looked like a molex was disconnected from the monitor. He said it plays Ms. Pac, Dig Dug and DK? Needs a Ms. Pac CPO and Marquee.

Next was a RoboCop in decent looking condition. Didn't plug it in so working condition is unknown.

Various different gumball and candy machines, sticker machines, a Tetris Mini (working)

He's getting more in tomorrow and said I could come down and look. I'll be bringing my camera and getting more info on the auction.
 
Ah thats sick! I'm in NY, can you keep me updated on the details. Really sucks its on a Tuesday though. Can't take a vacation day for that hah. Any chance you can see if he has any showcase cabinets that are working/nonworking?
 
Where in CT...I lived in Greenwich for about 16 years and went to school up near new haven so I know the area

I'll be taking pics tomorrow as they bring the stuff in. I'll get as much info as I can. I know there will be at least 2 Rowe CD100's a Shark Attack and a bunch of other cabs and games.

I don't get why all of his auctions are on a Tuesday? Seems weekend auctions would do a lot better.
 
Update

Well.....he was unable to get more of the games in due to the snow...guy has no sense of adventure!!! ;)

Here are the pics I took today of what he had thus far. The Ms. Pac was offered to me for $300. I don't want or need it but if anyone wants to restore it and is close enough to come and get it.......I'll pay for it, pick it up and store it in my garage until you can come over and get it.
