Just curious as I would rather it go to somebody on here than Jay's pinball or somebody. But it was right in Wixom where me and KLOV'r Adamdiz are both at, so I am just curious cuz neither of us got it.
 
Turns out it was a fake ad. Jerryme went out there (to a garage sale), but there was not a game and never was. A dirty trick by someone who wants to demoralize would be Qix collectors.

As we all have seen, our local market has some definite characters that are trying to screw things up for everyone.

I'm assuming because Bart posted he was looking for one that started the fake one as a joke. I heard Jay does that kind of stuff..why I have no idea but eventually he's going to do it to the wrong person and get his ass whooped!
 
No it was yesterday and some Ass contacted me and told where the yard sale was. When I went there was a yard sale but never a Qix or any arcade games. It actually made me laugh, Because I did not miss shit, just wasted a little time, at least it was a great day for a drive. CAN SOMEONE FIX MY QIX!!!!!!!!!
 
Damn Bart that sucks.... I drove all around Wixom stopping at all the garage sales open yesterday looking for it too. If I found it I was planning to donate the boards to you after hearing your stories at Zach's place. That is just really cold that somebody would do that to another collector IMO.
 
well thank you jdubb350 at least it was a great day to be out. Did you go to the yard sale with the slot machine? If you did that is where I was sent.
 
No I didn't make it to that one with the slot machine. I went out in the morning looking around then I saw the ad for the one with the slot machine in the afternoon. By then my boys were playing with the neighbor's kids and I wasn't going anywhere lol. Well I will keep my eyes open for a set of Qix boards for you.
 
Make an adaptor for the cabinet to take a Jamma board and throw a Multi-Taito in there. :)
 
The Multi Taito is Horizontal Qix is Vertical - But if anyone has a multi taito they would like to get rid of I would really like one for another cabinet.

I figured it was switchable... Do they just center and shrink Qix, Space Invaders, and Arkanoid on a Horizontal monitor? That would suck!

165.00 shipped
includes thes games
Space Invaders,
Arkanoid
Bubble Bobble
Elevator Action
Jungle Hunt,
Puzzle Bobble,
Qix,
Rainbow Islands
Rastan
and Zoo Keeper

Edit: I read on another forum that it does them all Horizontal and just messes with the layouts for scores, etc so that it fits. As long as it doesn't scale, that isn't so bad, but would rather have them vertical. :)

Just wire it jamma, get a 60-1 board and set Qix as the only game to boot. It will be better than running the original hardware, since Qix boardsets are notorious for problems.

I told him that, he won't do it. :rolleyes:
 
Jerryme has 2 dedicated Qix cabs in very nice shape and 4 board sets that are not working. Someone please help this man live the dedicated dream!
