Emergency Houston auction
AGGIEZ:
Man, I can't believe some of the deals that were going down at this auction!!! I got a nice Street Fighter II cab for a buck! Here we come MAME! I alos got a nice Rygar cab with working 19" monitor for $15! People were getting cabs with boards and monitors for $20-30 pretty regularly. I picked up a very nice working Golden Tee 2K for $500. Some great deals. He did have alot of cabs that went unsold that would be great for a MAME...
AlexC:
I was there as well, picked up 8 cabs for $59.00. Some are pretty complete. The best part was the wife was with me so she approved, she even kept pushing me to bid higher on a Sinistar sitdown cab.
I'll post some pics later.
NY_in_TX:
man :'(
I was gonna rent a truck and drive down, but I just couldn't get it all together.
I thought this might finally be my time to find a pin and get some more games.
I am glad Texas got some good deals, seems like up north always has the deals.
Congrats!

Yeah, you should have gone, there were some older pins that went for less that 100 bucks. I don't know anything about them so I passed on them.
I did pick up:
Arkanoid : $3.00
Wrestlefest : $12.00
Mechanized Attack : $5.00
Heavy Barrell : $1.00
Ghosts 'n Goblins : $3.00
Guerrilla War : $30.00
Phoenix cab (converted to ?) : $1.00
Tempest cab (converted to ?) : $1.00
I missed out on a nice Firefox sitdown cab, went for $40.00 and had the "yoke" control on it. Still kicking myself for not going higher on it :'(
They had a six player X-men cab that went really cheap, I think about 80 bucks with monitors ( 2 x 25in) still in it.
Everything was "as is where is" but with those prices, who cares.
Had a great time, guess I gotta rent a U-Haul to get them all home tomorrow. :P

Aw man! I saw this post too late! I've been waiting for something like this and I miss it. :'(
That's great for you guys that made it.
