Rarely do I get to brag, but this time I will, I was the one that scored the $50 Tempest off of Omaha Craig's list. Now if the rain stops I'll get it inside. That is all.....
 
Rained all afternoon, thought it had quit, just started sprinkling again when I was picking up my daughter from dance, hopefully it will be done for good soon!
 
Congratulations. Don't know how I missed that one, I usually keep a close eye on the local craigslist.

I think I just happened to go on CL right after it was posted yesterday. Called him at 2 ish, drove to Omaha, picked up at 4. I couldn't find the ad when I got home, he must have pulled it, I know he had a lot of calls after me.
 
Congrats! I pretty much promised to stay off CL for a little while now for the sake of marital harmony!

Are you serious? $50 put your wife into a spin? I'm flat broke, but if a $50 Tempest came up my wife would would know enough to think it was a steal.

And yes, Ive had 15 years to coach her on the value of arcade games. ;)

How complete is your Tempest? Got any pics we can drool over?
 
I was just in Columbus today. I delivered a couple of recliners, however, I did not pick up a Tempest, or anything else, for that matter.

Its not the money its the space. I'm building a 40 x 24 detached garage this summer, so in the future it shouldn't be a problem (I hope). Of course it is dance recital weekend, which usually puts moms on edge too :) Its complete, cabinet is gorgeous. I hope to unload it tonight or in the a.m. and snap some pictures. It's still in the suburban :(
