Norcal Storage Raid?

[tron guy]

doesn't look good at this point, but if we do get a collection of talent(money) together, shouldn't we be able to do one of those first months rent deals for $1.00?
Move it down the way a couple of stalls.

 

[ScumBum]

I think the only way it will work is if someone takes charge and fronts the $2,833 to secure the storage unit for a month and then collects money from other KLOVers that wanna go in on it .

 

[PrairieDillo]

I can put in money but I can't take charge. My wife would kill me and I don't have the spare time to organize with all of these guys going in. Two young kids minimalize the time I have to spare.

I assume that one of the guys dying for the SW or 720s would take charge!

 

[tron guy]

I jsut went to the bank and have $500 in mypocket. I could get another 5 if we needed it.
I like the other, cannot do any of the legwork right now.

If I front the money for this, I would keep the Tron, Star Wars, and Super Nintendo cab and any parts for them. Then see if there are any boards/marquees I'm interested in. I wouldn't want to keep it all. The other games don't interest me, so you guys could buy them off me. And I wouldn't set the prices. You will, by whoever has the higher offer. If I could almost break even selling the rest, that's enough for me.

those cabs are definitely the most desirable.

If one guy (xarcade for example) were to make it a bulk buy I think it would probaby go down like that, and you try to get your money back off of the others.

If I were to throw in 1k, I would expect to have a draw to see who takes turns picking which games they want, and rotate the picking until the lot is split.

I knew it would happen this way. He said he just sold them to some one at about 4:15pm. They paid with paypal. No, it wasn't me!

GAME OVER

Oh well. ( this smile hides my sorrow)

If you have the money you should buy the lot and pay the rent which is $333 a month and take your time selling stuff off to make your money back . Tom said however long you want to rent the space for is fine with him , or transfer the unit into your name . You can sell enough stuff each month to pay the rent and take your time going over whats there and getting games working to sell .

I hope whoever bought it keeps all those 720's in California!!!!!

 

[PrairieDillo]

wow, he took paypal?

 

[acejedi]

I wouldn't be surprised if all that stuff ends up in the SJ auction on saturday. I wasn't interested in anything but you guys had to jump quick! Way to much talking ohwel we will see saturday. I'm curious about the parts, non of the full games intertested me but there could have been some rare gems in parts.

[mrbill2084]

I just got back from the auction. there were about 70 games there. 6 pga golfs, 6 tekken 3, 5 neo prints, 2 neo print like things. blitz 99, vortex, astro blaster, gunfight, kangaroo, stargate, midway clowns, daytona 2 seater, choplifter cocktail, a bunch of kiddy rides, 3 touchmasters, changers, 2 or 3 cd jukes.

there were 5 pins
t2(melted ramps)
fintstones (clean)
austin powers (dirty)
southpark (dirty)

when I was leaving at 5pm a 24 ft rental truck was driving up. Could have been the storage locker stuff..

 

[PrairieDillo]

none of the storage locker stuff.
Hopefully we'll see some of this stuff on craigslist or something.

 

[wolfeel]

Is this the start of the sell-off???

[VectorJunkie]

Probably... I would make that deal with the quickness... Not to mention to talk to the guy and see what else he has before it hits CL.

 

[PrairieDillo]

yeah I saw that also. I was wondering if it did come from the storage locker. Modesto though...

 

[ScumBum]

When I talked to Tom , the guy that had the storage unit , I think I remember him saying someone from Modesto was coming out later that day to see the games . Someone should just drop him an email and ask .

 

[PrairieDillo]

I emailed the CL poster with the 720's
I'll let you know what I hear back.

I wonder if some of the storage locker stuff ended up at the auction.

The NG 4 slot, VC2, Magic Sword etc.... the VC2 and Magic Sword were in bad shape. Magic Sword was in a defender. They may have been from the locker. Who knows.
