Default Kingsport, TN auction tomorrow
Looks like it is going to be a big one!

Just left from dropping off a few games and the room is already 2/3 full and there are a bunch of trucks waiting to unload games.

Saw quiet a few classics as well:

Centipede
Stargate
Tron
Pac and Ms. Pac cocktails
Ms. Pac uprights
Galaga
Nintendo Vs
Multicades galore

Anyone from here planning on attending?

Well... we COULD'VE got someone to do the arcade and just went over there and picked a few things up. But noooooooooooo...

Oh well, I'm broke anyways.

Good luck at the auction today! If there's a Satan's Hollow... DO NOT tell me about it. lol I'll be pissed that I missed it.

The auction dragged out about 2 hours longer than it should have. They were auctioning two rows at a time and stopped on the pin row after auctioning off about 4 of them. They were letting the pool table table/hockey table row catch up. It was 45 plus minutes before they started on the pins again.

The same thing happened when they got to a whole row of snack vending machines. They blew over an hour on just those.

There were some real good deals to be had there. I saw quiet a few pieces given away free. There was also some stuff that went way above what it should have.

Anyway, I picked up a couple of Mega Touches, coin pusher, ticket dispenser, and four games.

The best deal I got was a really nice dedicated Zombie Raid cabinet for $10. One of the guns is broke and the monitor is out. I'll swap over the parts from my T2 Zombie conversion cabinet.

good thing that I already bought too much stuff, that Zombie Raid looked pretty nice, I was going to go for it. I decided to wait a few games and see what the mini OutRun would go for, and I did get it for $100, pretty happy about that. If you're at the next one I'll make it a point to say hi.

I guess it was an even swap because I was seriously considering bidding on the Outrun mini earlier in the auction. I have been wanting one for a while.

After the Zombie Raid I was about out of space on the trailer though.
