Downtown daddy-o   

Thought the wife tells me we may be moving out a bit further...I would miss out current digs but we would get much more space (shop, game room, office, woohoo).

Let me know what you find.  The holidays are killing me or I would have gone to check them out.  Good luck!

My old man works on 56th. I will be going to Tech next semester too so I will be close by (Still thinking how I am going to get my cab into an apartment!).I will be heading out to check that out on sunday, so I will let you know if I find anything interesting. If you guys are looking to move, my mom is a realtor. She can help you out with that if you guys don't have one at the moment.

What is the local forum for pinball in atlanta. I'm in woodstock. Anybody go to the SuperAuction at lakewood last month? I didn't hang around to see what the pins were going for, but hopefully I can find a deal there next month..

I've been interested in going to an auction for a while. Is this just a pinball auction or an arcade auction too? Can you give me some more info?

Thanks, Fred.

 It's both arcade and pinball. It's one of the SuperAuctions. www.superauctions.com
There is one on Jan. 15 at lakewood exibition center.In November they had probably 50 arcade games, 20 or 30 pins, 30-40 skillstops. I picked up one of the skill stops for $70 and left shortly after. They said it was gonna be like 3 hours before they got to the pins and my wife didn't want to wait.

Pretty big crowd as expected.  It seemed to me fewer vids than usual, but
the auction seemed to be running really slow.   Seemed to me much slower
than usual.   A few nice pins, and a few ok pins but no real bargains.
And of course a bunch of pins pretty well beat up.  Marco was there with a
bunch of playfields, and also the PinLEDs.  Thought they looked pretty
good.  In any case, got to see some of the GAPAS folks, and play some pins
and vids, so not a total waste in the end.

Hey, I am in Atlanta.  Lots of pinheads in GA and most of them are near Woodstock.  Here is the website, it has instructions on how to join the list.
