Tyler, TX: Found a Satan's Hollow and more in a guy's storage unit

Now, let me start by saying that I haven't been able to get a really good look at the cab, but I DID, however, find a Satan's Hollow (and a few other games) in a guy's storage unit. He's basically trying to unload all of them. Not all of the cabs are in the best of shape, but there are a couple of finds in there that need a little TLC. EDIT: Some of the cabs in there look like they just need to be thrown to the curb.

He's traditionally been trying to sell everything for FAR too much money, but I think he's starting to get desperate to unload the games. He's emailed me with slightly more reasonable prices lately. There are some random parts and stuff in there as well, from what I saw. Who knows what kind of shape they're in.

I wish I could tell you more about their functionality or condition, but I thought I would share for anyone in the area that might want to go check them out, as well.

I'm currently looking to take the Space Invaders Deluxe off his hands. Should be grabbing it as I get farther along on the Galaga restore.

If interested, PM me, and I'll shoot you his email address. I don't want to post it publicly.

Sweet! I think I've talked to that guy. Is he that guy who wants to trade instead of sell? There was some guy in Tyler with tons of games,way overpriced and he really wanted to trade them for guns and motorcycles.
 
That's the guy!

He can be pretty irrational about his stuff and prices. He's one of those guys that has done more than you, and knows more than you.

I just randomly met him buying something unrelated to arcade equipment on CL.

However, if you have a car or a few cords of firewood, you might be able to get a game or two from him.

His CL prices are freaking nuts.

I'm glad you've been able to get him to crack a little bit. I was supposed to go check out some of his games last year,but I wasn't able to make it. I figured even if I did go,I'd have to listen to his long-winded stories and get overpriced quotes on games.
 
He told me that he wants to get rid of all of the arcade stuff and start collecting motorcycles. lol He's a packrat, for sure.

He's got a fairly nice Burger Time, Ms. Pac Man and Playchoice 10 at his house.

The standouts in his storage unit were the Sinistar and the Space Invaders Deluxe I'm hoping to get. At first, he was trying to sell me the SI Deluxe for over 300 WITHOUT THE GAME BOARD. lol I really want it, though, so I'll probably end up having to pay over a bill to get it.

Someone really needs to try to save that Sinistar!

How much does he want for his Spy Hunter 2? LOL.

You sure don't see those every day.

Spy Hunter 2? PM sent to you.

From previous experience, he'll probably overestimate its price and then say he'll take a car, tractor and firewood (hell, he even said that he'd take fresh grown produce one time. lol).

I can offer him some rotten tomatoes for the game. I'm not actually in the market for anything now (out of room!) and was just curious if he was asking full retail for that terrible game. :)
 
Pac-Mania is pretty nice. I remember reading about that one a while back.

I assume the cab is in shit shape or that he is still wanting an unreasonable amount on that one?
 
Best advice I can give is to ask him. The cabinet didn't look like it was in really bad shape, but it was hard to get to.

I'm not a buddy of his or anything. I just met him buying a beer keg off CL, and learned he had arcade games in his storage.

He has traditionally wanted a lot for his games, but he sent me an email last week saying that he really wanted to get rid of his games. Maybe he's willing to wheel and deal.

PM sent.
 
Just to clarify, I don't know what he wants for any of these. I just saw them in his storage building, took pictures and wanted to let y'all know.

He's not a buddy of mine at all. Just some guy I met through buying something on CL.

If you want to know a price, PM me and I'll give you his email. If I got a decent look at the cabinet, I'll try and let you know about its condition.
