Ignoring the insane price, look at the list of machines....!

"This is a turn key deal complete with management and 3 techs and box truck and forklift, tools and complete shops. "
So is he selling of the games or does it indicate as above that you are buying the business. I don't think you can buy management and techs along with the games even if there is free shipping.
-
Maybe the free shipping is to ship you down to your brand new business? :D

"The business did 600000.00 last year and in line for more this year."
Profit or income? :P
-
$243 per cab, not to bad ;)

Usually gross income. If he made that much profit it would probably not be up for sale.

sounds like the business WENT OUT OF BUSINESS.. comes with truck forklift, blah blah blah.
no location though.. and like you guys said management? tech's?
confusing auction.. they got all my fav's though.
but 1300 of the machines are "unshopped" it says the games are complete but i take "unshopped" as meaning needs work.
so i'd see it as you get a forklift, truck.. 200 working games and 1300 parts machines.. + at least 4 human slaves :P
well since i dont have 365 thousand dollars i guess i'll have to sit this one out.
even if it comes with a boxtruck there is no way in hell you're going to fit 1500 games in it for shipping..
-
Group buy!!! If we get like 3 or 4 people that's only like... aw crap. :'(

I've got $355,000. If someone can paypal $10,000, I'll give them half the cabinets.
Please paypal me at NigerianKing@NotAScamIPromise.com

hmm i just read the news article the guy has posted on the auction..
THIS IS THE BUSINESS.. in the article it says he has roughly 1500 machines in a 8k sq foot warehouse.
whats the business?.. selling machines.. apparently this ---tallywhacker--- is exported a large % of them overseas.
UK, Brazil, and Australia are 3 of his largest markets.
-
Looks like they added some games and lowered their price.

So if he has people who want to buy games overseas, why shouldn't he sell them? And the location is in the auction (hint, it's Chattanooga TN). Anyway, he posts this "auction" every so often, I think more as publicity (he's even stated as such, over at KLOV) and every time he does this, threads pop up on all the various forums. (example, wp34's link, he just posted while I was typing this up)

because i dont like systematic exportation of the arcade games, it might be business but i dont have to like it.

He is a regular over at the KLOV forums, goes by RLEVIN. http://forums.arcade-museum.com (http://forums.arcade-museum.com)

Somehow i think he's going to have them on his hands for a while.
-
Got it covered, not to worry. Just bought a lottery ticket ;D
-
He actually listed almost 1000 games, in a single column. Alphabetically would have been nice.

Well that seems selfish...

I was thinking this topic was about that Entex Adventure Vision for 5500 pounds, when I saw the last bid.

There was a lot of Ms. Pacman and Galaga on that game list.
