MameJunkie:

sods law?  Is that UK's version of Murphy's Law here in US?

Jess--:

think that murphys law is the same as sods law...

anything that CAN go wrong WILL go wrong (especially if you are trying to demonstrate it working well)

nostrebor:

I bailed on going to this auction. :'(

Last year the St L auction before Christmas offered considerably higher prices for similar games.

How were the dead row prices?

Was there a Gyruss present? If so please lie to me and say it sold for more than $300.

Xiaou2:


 Yes, sure those prices might seem low... but,

 that list does not show the actual condition these were in.   Some may have had non working boards, monitors, broken controls, poor cabnet...ect.

 Then, there are the fees.   Add 50 to 100$ to some of those.

 And finally,  think about the expense of driving there,  with somethng big enough to hold a game or two.. and then driving back. 

 ohh and i almost forgot...  many cheap games sold, are not really sold.  If nobody bids high enough..  the seller will bid to buy his game back.   Its not supposed to be like that.. but thats what happens.



MameJunkie:

Maybe our fault for ASSuming but since some were marked as (broken) I assumed that all others were in working condition which also means all parts there.
