Auction 14!
A small
auction was held in Yardville NJ on the
27th by Best Auctions. Some nice pins were present but few video
machines. I had a long talk with some operators
on the listing of auction prices on the internet. Some are for it and
some are against it, claiming it hurts their
business. Here is my take: Auctions are a great place to pick up game
cheaply, but it is not for the faint or heart.
Most equipment need major work that many are not able to perform.
Monitors need rebuilding, cases need repair,
wiring inside needs to be done and even extensive work to PC boards must
be completed before you have the nice
pieces you see on my tribute pages. Other issues may include buy backs,
where the seller wins the auctions because
no one else present will go as high as the equipment is worth and will
result in a lower then market value to be
listed on my auction pages..
Remember, games are much like used cars. The 2 old Ford Pintos your
looking at my be worth 2 very different values
depending on the age, rarity, mileage, availability of parts and overall
condition. Can you fix the car yourself
(or fix the game in this case) or will you require a mechanic (or
operator) to track down the parts and make the
repairs. How will you get that car back to your house? (or the game to
your house) Get the idea? On with the prices.
Remember,
this is a listing of the Best Auctions,
March 27th 1999 show. I do not own any of the games listed here, Do not
have any tie ins to the sellers or the
auction personal, and will ignore all Email asking to by any of these
