SuperAuctions Mesquite May 29 Anybody going?

[YellowDog]

It looks like I will be headed to this SuperAuctions. I have a couple of side deals to try to work out. If anybody wants any of the games I have listed on Craigslist (http://houston.craigslist.org/vgm/1749370555.html) I will be renting a pickup truck and can haul a couple of them up there. I need the room on the drive home, so if you ask for it and I haul it, you bought it.

Also, if anybody from Houston wants a ride, I'll be leaving early Saturday morning.

right now im 65/35 on if im going, mostly depends on if i sell my car and if i can lock down my friend to go

I might be game, depends on how much space you have for the return trip? I'm not looking to buy anything but you never know. I really just want to go to look around, pick some parts up then come back home. Not really looking to stay there all day though. lol

Picking the parts up from a fellow KLOV'er that will be at the auction so that wouldn't take long.

Anyone have some 25" monitors they'd like to sell and can take to the auction? Prefer 25" K7000's, chassis not required. If it's something other than a K7000, I would need chassis and yoke.

i will most likely be there, but not really sure if I will be buying anything as I just replaced the tranmission in my SS. But then again if something catches my eye I might just have to buy. I like to go and watch the shill bidding going on between the auctioner and a couple of known sellers.

 

[alexcc]

I should be there as well.

 

[dc2010]

sold my car, but my buddy is a no go ......guess im paying for my own gas lol

 

[2percenter]

Can I give one of you dudes my phone number and you can call me if a Sega Hot Rod shows up. I will try to drop my other obligations and sell my body on the drive over to be able to bid on it. If you can do this for me, shoot me a PM.

Those Hot Rods just dont show up very often anywhere. I use to play the hell out of it back in the day. That would be the only driving game I would ever own..

Exactly. One of the times I don't show up at the auction, it's going to be there.

 

[Raiden_2112]

[JerryO]

So has anyone going to the Friday preview, and if so whats for auction?

 

[gutsman004]

Anyone have any details on what was there?

I went this morning. It was a pretty packed event this time compared to the last time I was there. They had made an announcement that a lot of machines came from some arcade closing this time around.. also that someone from King of Kong or something was supposed to show up at some point in the day.. hard to hear so I missed exactly whom.

There were very few classics this time around.. an Asteroids, a single Ms. Pac, and a non-functional joust. Seemed to be a lot of bar type games, like golf and hunting/shooting games. The multi-cades (which seem to continue to grow uglier and uglier) were bountiful.. but sold around 600$ this time around, instead of going for a thousand or more, which I've seen in the past.

This was the first time I remember seeing things like hotdog cookers, fridges... and there was even a single bumper boat!

Anyone pick up anything? I didn't stick around much past noon.
