Anyone going? I'm debating. Are the US Amusements auctions usually any good? Its a long drive for me to go for nothing.

I should be there, I live local.  A friend is coming in from Illinois and we are going to go check it out.  Wonder if the OSU Michigan game will have any effect on attendance?

Ok, this is totally from memory, from reading various posts, as I have only attended superauctions.

Superauctions tend to be larger, but shilling is rampant, and prices tend to be higher (because of the shilling).

While the US Amusements auctions tend to be smaller, but often cheaper.
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

My experience in Columbus (the only place I've gone to arcade auctions) is that Super Auctions had a lot of those Pachislo games.
The US Amusement auction I went to earlier this year was more heavily weighted on arcade machines.  They had quite a few pinballs too.  My buddies and I got tired at left at 4:00.  They still had a lot of stuff left to sell then, too.

So did anyone go? How was it? Any pics? Prices? I decided not to go, just to much involved in the logistics. I would have had to get up at 3 am.  That would make it a very long day.
