I'm just north of toledo, about 200 miles exactly from camden, so I'm not sure if that's too far. 

I have a Donkey Kong Jr that's jammatized i might be willing to part with.  I also have a buster brothers game that's been messed with (it has two buttons and some extra holes in the control panel where there used to be poker like pushbuttons).  All it would need is a new control panel overlay.  Both games are working.  Drop me a pm if you'd be interested in either.

None here, but I'm in the area also (cinci and work in dayton)

But I see used games for sale on ebay often in driving range.  Many go for next to nothing.

Somebody mentioned a bit back that one of the big arcade auction/show/sales was coming to Vet's Memorial, here in Columbus, but I think it was canceled.

Maybe we should arrange a meeting then.  I think it would be the best opportunity for us all to meet.

SW Ohio here. I live in Trenton (near Hamilton, In-Laws live on the edge of Camden/Somerville) I work downtown Cinci and I was raised in Columbus so shout out to all the Ohio folks in here who are from places I actually know lol.
What if this weren't a hypothetical question?
