Mmm tirekickers.

He's not kidding when he says "show up with a truck and cash". That's how it works with ops. Show up with a truck and cash and you can get stuff cheap. Do it another way and it is far more difficult.

I'm not specifically talking about Peale, I mean with ops in general. That is not a cliche when they say that.

Man, it's too bad we can't get into a new house sooner... I'm gonna be having a nice big basement to convert into my secret underground gaming lair, but I could really use that extra space now.

Well, the time to buy is *now*. I have to move these games *again*, this time with a truck. Some stuff will inevitably get junked this time. I don't have the resources to save it all, so...

No, I am not. I will be at the shop this Saturday, possibly Sunday if there is interest. PM me if you're interested.

I have been contacted by a company looking to buy *everything*. Frankly, I would like to do that only as a last result. The community at large has given me quite a bit, and I'd like to give back to it.

Peale!! I'll be there the first week of April to pickup!!!!!

SirPeale · « **Reply #84 on:** March 24, 2006, 06:44:52 am »

Time is running out! If you're at all interested, PM me. I'll be at the warehouse tomorrow.

I am interested .... wish I kew about this earlier drove by Keene twice this week

. PM sent

SirPeale · « **Reply #86 on:** March 25, 2006, 03:57:56 pm »

I didn't get a single person to come out today. Kind of figured I wouldn't.

Still available for tomorrow, Mon-Wed and of course the weekend coming up.

Oh, the non-working Out Run? It's working now. Power Supply needed caps.

Level42 · « **Reply #87 on:** March 25, 2006, 06:22:07 pm »

Maybe you think I wasn't serious about the Ms. Pac Man.

Well I am dead-serious.

1) What condition are they in ?
2) How much does your boss want ?
3) Would you be able to ship (or let it pick up by a shipper I arrange) ?

Ms. Pac Man's (or any other original classic cabs) are extremly rare here. If you can offer me a good price for the 4 of them, and they are in reasonable state, I think I can sell them here for a nice price, so much that I can keep 1 and not having to pay for it

I have good contacts with some transport companies, so I can arrange pick-up at your place, only request would be good packing (putting it on a pallet, very carefully wrapping it with protective stuff)

SirPeale · « **Reply #88 on:** March 26, 2006, 07:28:50 am »

Well...there are three. One has no board. One has severe graphics issues. The last has no monitor chassis, so I can't tell what's going on.

Even in this condition, looking upwards of $1,000. Each.

Any shooter games like time crisis or area 51 of the sort? I live in manchester nh and would love to come to the warehouse with cash to burn.

Level42 · « **Reply #92 on:** March 26, 2006, 10:27:49 am »

Apparantly not a bit !

If he gets back to the real world, let me know

I woulda if I coulda. You are only 1:40 from me. No time or space. And real life is exterting its ownership over me. Maybe next year if this happens again. Probably not before.

No. Shooters are our moneymakers, we don't sell them.

SirPeale · « **Reply #95 on:** March 28, 2006, 06:46:09 am »

Just FYI for everyone, the sale is still on! If you're interested in taking a tour, PM me for arrangements.

SirPeale · « **Reply #96 on:** April 06, 2006, 07:25:53 pm »

I thought I had someone taking the VR Racer cabinets, but the person who was supposed to pick them up hasn't been able to.

I received a couple emails regarding them, but after replying to them stating that it was 'claimed' I must have deleted them.

If you're still interested in them, please contact me.

In addition, I still have lots of cabinets for projects. Please buy some!

SirPeale · « **Reply #97 on:** May 04, 2006, 05:31:42 am »

I just wanted to re-bump this. There are still a ton of cabinets available. Cool projects cheap!

SirPeale · « **Reply #98 on:** May 05, 2006, 07:50:19 pm »

Wow...we're seriously running out of room in our new facility. Need to clear some space!

Anyone want an air hockey table? Old, but I've been told they work.

Ninten-doh · « **Reply #99 on:** May 05, 2006, 08:44:22 pm »

Damn, I wish I was closer (I'm in Northern NJ) and/or had the time to make the trip. I'll bet you have the gutted Ikari cab I'm looking for.

Actually, I have a dedicated Victory Road...

At least, AFAIK it's dedicated. Maybe not.

SirPeale · « **Reply #101 on:** May 08, 2006, 09:24:53 pm »

Had a great deal today with a forum member. Took away two air hockey tables and a couple cabinets.

Still more stuff available! Bring cash and a truck, deal deal deal!

JMB · « **Reply #102 on:** May 08, 2006, 11:12:21 pm »

A great deal it was!

If the air hockey tables weren't so big we probably would have left with a trailer load of cabs.

A huge thanks to Peale! If you are within driving distance of Southern NH then I highly recommend stopping in.

Thanks again! Give Mrs. Peale my apologies for making her husband work late.

SirPeale · « **Reply #103 on:** January 24, 2007, 07:37:56 pm »

Bumping this back up for the new meat!

The boss is thinking of Spring Cleaning. That means lots of cabinets where they don't belong: broken up, in the dump.

I'd like to avoid as much of this as possible.

SirPeale · « **Reply #104 on:** January 24, 2007, 07:59:28 pm »

I personally have an Astron Belt cab.

http://www.dragons-lair-project.com/games/materials/cabinets/large/ab_01.jpg

No monitor or boards, but it does have the full side art. Heck, the CP art is still there, albiet very faded and with extra couple holes.

It currently has a game board in it (not Astron Belt) but I forget what it is, some western-style game.

Wood is in mostly good condition. There are a few spots here and there that are crumbly (it's made of particle board) but could be fine if treated properly.

Free! Come get it.

SirPeale · « **Reply #105 on:** January 25, 2007, 06:43:54 pm »

Ah, the fire of destruction is burning now!

Cool Guy pulled an old Data East cab out from the back today. 30 seconds with a sledgehammer reduced a perfectly good cabinet into kibble.

ChadTower · « **Reply #106 on:** January 26, 2007, 12:49:06 pm »

You're tempting me while I'm trying to decide which of my cabs need to go. That's just evil.

shardian · « **Reply #107 on:** January 26, 2007, 01:00:44 pm »

Instead of destroying a perfectly good cab, why don't your boss put a crappy game board in a crappy cab, then donate it to a boys/girls house or some other charity and collect the nice tax deduction.

ChadTower · « **Reply #108 on:** January 26, 2007, 01:02:41 pm »

Because the tax deduction doesn't even equal the labor he has to pay Peale and Cool Guy to do that, probably.

Kaytrim · « **Reply #109 on:** January 26, 2007, 01:22:48 pm »

There has got to be some way to save these cabs from the landfill. Not everyone lives close enough to come and pick them up. There has got to be some way of setting up an equitable sale price with shipping at least in the states.

ChadTower · « **Reply #110 on:** January 26, 2007, 01:24:34 pm »

There are few empty cabs that are worth what NAVL would charge to ship them.

boboli · « **Reply #111 on:** January 26, 2007, 05:10:07 pm »

I'm in Gloucester, MA and would probably be interested in driving up for something, but I just don't know what. Do you have any kind of list of what's available? Any pinball machines avail? What about parts (buttons, etc.)?

SirPeale · « **Reply #112 on:** January 26, 2007, 06:19:57 pm »

Getting some good response luckily. People who have bought before have expressed interest in more pieces.

I don't have any immediate parts available. Only whole cabinets.

Almost all conversions. Some dedicated stuff, nothing hot-hot.

No pins available.

$300 for say...two empty cabs to ship them? *shrug* I'll do it, if you arrange the details.

I don't suppose you have a Hard Drivin or Race Drivin cockpit? It doesn't have to work...

-Or-

English Mark Darts, working?

Cockpit? Don't think so. I think there are two uprights, but that's one of the boss' favorite games. Of course, everything will go for the right amount of $$$

We have a bunch of dart machines. Do you have a picture of one of the machines you're talking aboot? I have an idea but want to make sure.

I'm looking for the ones that look like you are sitting in a car - not the upright ones.

Peale,

I am looking for either the two parts I need for my coin door or a complete coin door (if cheap enough) the same as the one I have. The first pic is my coin door. The second is a closeup of the coin chute, and the third is what the coin chute should look like with the little coin slot cover in place. Would you happen to have 2 of those coin chute covers? Or a whole door like pic 1 reasonably priced? Thanks.
