It isn't listed on the home page, but there is a new (not-open-to-the-public-just-for-forums-members-right-now) tool at:
http://www.ace.com/iam/
It automatically searches all 9 eBay Arcade and Pinball categories and grabs the top items in each. "Top" is very subjective, especially to a computer program, but what I did was to limit the report to auctions that already had bids on them.
I'll probably have the report run a few times throughout the day. You can click "Add to Wishlist" to automatically add to the eBay wishlist (not vaps wishlist). Click on the item # to bring up the item on eBay if you want a closer look.
Within each category, the default view is price (from most expensive to cheapest). You can click on price repeatedly to toggle direction. You can also click on # of bids and ending date to temporarily sort the category on those fields.
So what did the report do for me tonight?
Things I found interesting on the report tonight:
1974 'The Safe' - Safe Cracking (non-video) game
A dedicated Major Havoc (already $3600 and 3+ days to go)
A 300-in-1 Jamma Board
Atari PAT 9000 Test Fixture
Taito Bench Tester Unit w/cables
Penguin Pinball Dolly (a model I hadn't seen before)
Check it out and let me know what you think...
Thanks,
Greg
