hooray for auctions!  yeah 75 for sf3 is crazy even if it is sfIII:NG or sfIII: SI, since its normally tough to get the cps3 board alone for that price.  if it was SF3: third strike that was going for 75, i will be pissed.  I cannot find a 3s for less than 350..that's including bootlegs.   :P

I just picked up a Defender at the Super Auction in Atlanta. It was my first arcade auction. What is not listed on the price list is the pure chaos of trying to find power, playing 20 games you have not seen in 20 years, having it shut off half way through because some other dweeb needed power for HIS cab, and stale popcorn. I will be back to more of them.

My only gripe is the 13% buyers premium plus 8 % tax added on top.

Hey were the pins working? the one I went to had about 4 that were working well and all the rest had some serious issues.

I accidentally did that to two guys playing street fighter at the Rockford auction.  When I was behind the cab I couldn't tell which socket was being used.  At the time I felt two inches tall, but I needed the power to test a game I wanted to buy and they were just playing around.

As far as I could tell, all the pins were working.  I'm sure they experienced glitches and catastrophic failure after the buyers got them home.  There were even 3 empty pinball cabinets - without legs, glass, guts, or the backboard.  I knew they would go cheap (all 3 in a package for $40) but I could not figure out what the hell I would do with them. I only remember one - an old starwars.
