Nope.  Bunch of newer stuff.  I'm only in it for the classics.

Though the parts room does intrigue me...

[Bender]

sounds interesting

I might go just because I've never been to one of these and it's close to me. If I'm in town that day (I don't remember right now), I'll drive over. Do they charge an admission or anything like that?

I've been reading up on various auctions because I have yet to go to one.. basically from what i read you might need to pay a $200 deposit, which you get back if you dont bid ? And also if you do it can go toward your purchase but again I'm not really sure.

Thanks for the heads-up!

I've never been to one of these either and Worcester is less than an hour away. I may take a trip up just to see what they have.

Has anyone ever been to one? Is what mrclean posted correct - is a $200 deposit required?

[KDOG]

I have never paid a deposit when just going to  buy at a superauction.

Bumping this thread, any one going its this sat. !

[mrclean]

i want to know whats available! (other then what's on the flyer of course) I need a spy

[torcer]

I may go; it's about 15 minutes from me.  Wonder what kind of deals they have?

[mrclean]

I really need the heads up today of a list / maybe pics etc because i'm going to be heading up to MA sat. and wanted to know if it's worth bringing a u-haul. Depends on what the selection of games are available. How many reg sized i.e. Ms. Pac cabinets can you fit in a u-haul van ?

all i can think about is adam sandler:
