Some pins and other stuff. There's links to full list and pics

Why can't we get something like that here? :P
-
Holy crap that's like $20,000 in pins.
-
... and unless it gets spread around RGVAC or something, there may not be a whole lot of competition for bidding.

Holy crap that's like $20,000 in pins.
That's the first thing I noticed too.

I hated to work on pinball games

Have trailer hitch... will travel. ;)
SW metro.

Wow, someone could walk away with some insanely good prices, assuming they don't all have liens on them.
-
I don't know, some of the titles listed have a really high book value once shopped and clean.
-
After they reached $21,000, they sold the remaining games (including most of the video I guess) as one single lot to a single buyer who stated he was going to eBay all the games.
wtf?
-
They won't get parted out, most of those were very late model machines with high price tags. There aren't enough in need of parts to make as much as you would selling them complete.
-
Wow, some people just aren't very smart, I guess.
I'd like to see something like that here, but not if it's gonna be crappy like that.
-
Every one of those pin prices listed is under market value.

The Twilight Zone was non-working, I didn't ask specifics when I spoke with the guy arranging the auction because I knew it would go for more than I would have brought, and I doubt he would have known anything about it anyhow.
I didn't expect those vids to go that high. I figured $200-250 for APB and maybe $400-500 for the pac/ms pacs. I'm glad I saved my fuel. I'll stick with my sources. ;)

I'm just going by what a friend who is into pinball said. (I disclaim any ability to judge--I've never looked into pinball)
