best deal you ever got, and best deal you ever missed
for dedicated games and pins anyway
best, 7 yrs ago in san diego got a call from a laundro mat, " we have a broken game we'd like to sell for 50 buks, the screen went out, forget the name, its purple and blue and kind of z shaped" major havoc goes thru my mind, lol, and it was a dedicated major havoc in great shape fully working except for minor monitor repair needed. i paid full price of the 50.
pin best , same time san diego, got a call " i have a broken pinball game, its kind of wide and i think its from some old tv show, i want 500" tz goes thru my mind, and it was lol, needed shopping and a few items fixed., i paid full price of the requested 500.
best missed deal,, this one is a high score. get a call from someone who says they have a 1920's rockem sockem robots 1c game, he wanted 600. i knew this was great deal but could not get to it that day, i wrote down his number, lost the number, did research on the game and found them to be worth 40,000 to 100,000 omg ! (and even 25,000 for mostly complete non working)
