I have been in this hobby for just a few years now and immediately started searching for a Dragon's Lair. A year ago I had an add posted looking for one and got a response saying "I don't have a DL but have a few other games". One thing lead to another and I bought a quonset with over 120 games in it. After spending the last year refurbishing, selling, (sorry) Mame'ing and 60-1ing cabinets, I have sold over 110 cabinets since September and bought or traded for another 20 or 30 games. I have met a lot of great people and a few not so great people. Most importantly I have introduced a lot of people to the world of home arcades and hopefully we can build the very small arcade community that we have here in Calgary.
Last week the best deal of them all was to trade a Buck Hunter Sportsman's Paradise for my Dragon's Lair. I have known about this cabinet for almost a year now and it has taken me a year to finally get it. The funny thing is out of all the places in the world it was owned by someone that my brother works for. Small world.
The DL doesn't work yet but it will and with the artwork kit that I got from Dean's March of Dimes fundraiser I plan to restore this thing to its formal glory and make it shine again.
