Storage Auctions Huntington, California - tons of candy cab machines

[ArcadeTechGW]

Well, those aren't my thing, but for those of you with deep pockets and interest, bingo man!

Just did some research on that auction platform, seems shady as hell, lots of bad reviews so be careful.

I've actually won an auction on that very site and had zero issues. It was not that storage unit place in Huntington Beach Park, however. Much like eBay, anybody running storage units can sign up and have auctions. And much like eBay, most sellers are on the level, but of course there are always bad sellers.

Ooooh, buy it from a Canadian address !!!

That's good to know, I'm definitely going to watch and see what happens. Might throw a little biddy bid in just for the hell of it.

Do we start a pool to have John bid on them and then give him a commision to ship them around to everybody?!

There needs to be some type of klov club with a legal structure for these kind of situations…

Don't threaten me dude!

I brought back 1800 pounds of arcade monitors and CRTs from Texas and lots of people were "interested in 1 or 2". Until it came time to drive a few hours and pick them up at my house. Then .
Thank goodness for @KaBoom1701 helping out or I would still have all of them sitting here.

If this auction wasn't such short notice I could have come up with something.

There's can't be too many people in Cali that would have that type of variety of cabs all in one storage location... Any chance it's part of Omar's stash?

..It was not that storage unit place in Huntington Beach, however..

Huntington Park is NOT Huntington Beach, big difference. It's in the top 10 most dangerous areas in LA https://www.valleyalarm.com/most-dangerous-neighborhoods-los-angeles/ - just an FYI for any non-locals bidding thinking they are coming to pick these up in a surfer town.

I think this is Omar's collection. I recognize a few pieces and the OLD USPS boxes scream OMAR as well as the blue Egret 29s and red Namco consolette. The dude has been quiet for too long so I'm assuming he's dead, in jail or got deported.
It'll be interesting who comes up with a group buy and snags this shit. It's at least 100k+ in broken candy cabs.

So I shouldn't sell a kidney then?

Best to do it in advance, to have the cash on hand. Just in case.

Definitely Omar's stash. Look at his insta: https://www.instagram.com/candycabkingarcade/?hl=en

Whoever wins this auction maybe give a little to the victims that he royally screwed over.

At least karma eventually came for this pos scammer, even if he's no longer in this land of the living.

Man, forgot about that piece of snit. Just re-read the thread about him. Wonder if he finally screwed over the wrong people.

If there are any active and open cases against him it might be worth contacting the PD. If those items were paid for that may constitute stolen goods.

Thanks for the correction. Edited my post to reflect the correct place.

Omar's alive somewhere.

Omar probably just trolled everyone for the price of listing this I wouldn't put it past him.

I don't know how far back you go but Isn't that the guy that was getting beater candy cabs by the truckloads from Mexico?
