Preview Time from 8am-10am, auction afterwards.
Who is going? I plan on going (with BYOAC shirt of course) - might bring a friend along for the preview period. Hopefully Tom will show up as well. Anyone else?
-
I'll will be there with my 2 kids. The wife has to work so she will miss all the fun as well as the Sharks/Stars game. I don't have a nifty BYOAC shirt so I may have to go in one of my jerseys.
-
I was thinking about going, went to one around a year ago, but didn't stay for the whole thing.(Had my wife with me!)
This time if I go, I'll drop her off at the Mall! hahahaha
-
sweet - if you guys see a BYOAC shirt, interrupt me drooling over the games and say howdy (or whatever greeting you choose ;)).

I'll make sure to wear my Avalanche jersey then to even things out :)
-
I'd really like to go, but I've got absolutely no room for anything. Maybe I can start storing at other people's places ala PaigeOliver :D
-
I will check it out during the preview time, but don't have room either :-(.
-
Never stayed long enough at the auction to find out, but do they ever auction off vending machines (Coke, Pepsi)?
-
I'll be there. I will have my BYOC hat on. I may bring my son Dominick.
I am bringing my F250 and tarps. If I spend too much, I can sell game transport service!
Looking for Tron, Galaga, Ms. Pacman, Centipede and junk cabs.

-
I will also be there.
I am a arcade auction newbie, so any helpful hints?

I'll be there.
With my wife.
To find me, keep an eye out for a girl with a unusual arcade related T-shirt on. (I'll be next to her) ;)

;D ;D ;D HEY! :D ;D ;) :P
Actually, I have all my games again. All 18 of my arcade and pinball cabinets are with me again, and there might be two more on the way (an Arabian and a mostly empty cocktail).
Eek, then I will have 20. I remember when I thought having 3 was great!
-
I'd like to go but it's an hour+ drive, and I'm not a morning person. Plus I don't have room at home or the transportation to take it there. Hmm... come to think about it, it's the morning thing and the small car that are really stopping me. :P
However, if I happen to be awake early enough, I'll make a trip down there just to see the stuff, and then maybe stop at fry's on the way home. ;)
-
wow - looks like there will be quite a few of us from BYOAC...unfortunately we may be bidding against each other! ;)

Hmmm...Oh yeah, uh, the auction is moved to Sunday...uh yeah, so I will see you guys then, right??
:)

uhh, yep - wouldn't you know it - moved to Sunday! ;)

I can probably transport games as well heading towards the hayward area as long as the trailer isn't full.
BTW, the auction is moved to next weekend. I hear they needed more time for do rag to cart his stuff west.
-
Sweet! Will 'Do Rag' be there?

hah - I doubt in, but in a way, I'd like to see the mystical creature at least once...

He's definately no site to see... *<shiver>*
At the last auction Nannuu's wife saw him (not knowing who/what he was) & told Nannuu that she just saw the creapiest guy she had ever seen... When she pointed him out, I about hit the floor laughing... But it's true...
And oh the humanity... the smell... *<GAG!>*
-
what does he do for a living? and where does he get all of these games to sell?

He works for Super Auctions, I believe. So he has ample opportunity to find games to MAME and sell.
-
ooooooooohhhh, he's an employee...
and I thought he was just a roaming auction barnicle selling the stuff he finds stored in barns from the midwest

That's what he wants people to think. But the auctioneers freely allow him to "adjust" games during the auction if the monitor is fuzzy, etc. And if anybody else tries to do that, they tell you not to.

reward leading to the arrest, conviction, or bathing of this man:

Do-Rag was not at the SoCal Auction. Maybe he doesn't do the california shows?
Someone pick me up a nice Black Tiger for $100.oo ;)
-
Is this what happens when he takes off the Do-Rag?
-
BWahahahahaha
I hear he will be dressed up as Santa and giving out the MJ treatment to any children around.
-
that hair is awesome!...if he takes his sweater off, his chest hair will probably do the same thing :o
-

Is that Ron Jeremy's brother?

in case any of you want to get a hold of me tomorrow at the auction, my cell is 510.866.8059 and my name is Aaron.
