Today was a good day for arcade hunting in Albany, NY.
Well I started the day heading out to Johnstown, NY with my good buddy Mike (masco73) to pickup a working Blood Brothers for $150.
Loaded that up and on the way back stopped in Amsterdam, NY to check out a video game store that just opened up there. While in there I ask them if they were interested in any full size arcade games. To my surprise they say yes. So not really planning on all this I mention that I have one in my van. Mike and I pull it out wheel it in and the guy checks it out and after some back and forth he says he will pay $225 cash. I figure what the hell I have only owned the game for 30 minutes and can make a quick $75 so I take it.
I get home and see that a Centipede just popped up on CL in Albany, NY for $50. So Mike and I hop back in the van and head down and grab it.
So in the end I get the Centipede for FREE and $25 in my pocket. Not a bad day in arcade land!
