Hey Guys,

Just wanted to say that I met "jow" today and he is a great guy. Gave me a great deal on a Punchout and was just an all-around great person to meet. Thanks a ton for the machine!! Nice to have such great people in this hobby....to counter-act the NOT so great few that are out there..

P.S. Jow---I do owe you ONE for the bee sting!! LOL..

I will 2nd the great guy part. I think distributor is a better description than collector though. :O)
 
Lol..

Jow...dude...remember who called you a COLLECTOR and not a distributor next time we need to make a deal....LOL...

;-p

Yep..

Junkie,

I have been collecting laser games since 2001...have bought and sold a ton of different ones..currently I have a Dragon's Lair, DL 2, and a Space Ace..along with a Punchout machine, Donkey Kong, Dig Dug, Multi-Williams that I just picked up, and a 60 in 1 cocktail..

Actually, I used to own an arcade business here in Sac..it was called Arcade Classics..owned it about 4 years while I finished film school...

Anyway..that's an update on who I am...I have no where NEAR as many games as Joe (AceJedi) does..but that is because I am not as NUTS as he is..oh, and I like to hold on to SOME of my money..LOL

More..

I have a feeling there are probably quite a few collectors in the Sac area...I always seemed to run into a ton of people from Sac at the SuperAuctions in San Jose..back when they used to have them, that is...

Actually, I had a meeting with the Art's Director at the Mayor's office three weeks ago about putting together an "Arcade Game and Pinball Museum" in Sacramento. They were very interested, so we will see what happens..

Take it easy

Very cool. Can't say I would know where to start with a project like that but I have always thought we needed an arcade museum in CA.
 
Jess,

It was great to meet you too man, and it sounds like you made the trip home safe and sound. Next time you need anything, make sure you give the ol' distributor a call :)

Post some pics when you get that new CPO/KO button installed.

Can't blame Jow, he has a family to s'pport. I have to admire a guy that does not have an irrational attachment to material items.

The ultra-capitalist - he always has "a price". Is there anything you won't do for the right price, jow?
