Manchester, NH  --> finally a NewEngland auction and I can't go... (although the RGVAC'ers seem skeptical as to what's gonna be there... although if there's low turnout, could mean low prices... or just low amounts of good stuff available to bid on)

I'll have to wait for the big Boston one...  I'm all over that!

I drove by the auction location in Manchester yesterday.  It's at a place called Antic's Grill and Games.  They went out of business two weeks ago.  I believe the auction will be just their current inventory.  They had mostly newer games, maybe one or two classics.  I called the restaurant's phone number and someone told me that they expected many dealers who my purchase in lots.  Most games are current money makers, so the prices may be high...  
There may be another auction in Boston in June...

Not sure if this helps anyone, but figured I'd jump in.

Hm...I think I'll still go, but that is a bummer.  I was pretty much just going to look for parts, but this will be nice to see what an auction is all about.

Well, the auction was nothing but a bunch of new (post 1995) stuff.  Huge games, too.  Good prices, but these games were HUGE.

Did win a bid on some arcade parts, though.  Bill acceptors, ticket dispensers, and a whole bunch of hand tools.  A PCB as well, not sure what yet.  I'm afraid it's a hard drive game.  I've only looked at it for a minute, I'll know more later.
