Computer Space on eBay in Beverly Hills (not mine)
northerngames:
the person that made this post is selling buying or trading it?
if the poster is buying it why post it here?
if the poster is not selling it or trading it why post it here?
there is a thousand machine's for sale on ebay and many other sites so we all should post our own findings here even know we do not own them selling them or trading them?
CheffoJeffo:
Agreeing with horseboy ... shudder ...
The idea is that people look in this forum for things to buy or sell ... posting the auction elsewhere defeats the purpose.
Nobody is suggesting running out and posting every eBay auction, but items of interest (like, say, a Computer Space) are exactly that, of interest.
Cheers.

No, but that doesn't mean it isn't relevant or not for sale.

He isn't.

Because it is relevant and due to the rarity and history behind that particular title many people would have interest in the auction.

No, that is absolutely ridiculous. :banghead:
If something is of interest to this particular community such as a rare game, a drastically underpriced (cheap) game, etc. Also, non arcade items such as a good deal on a computer that is suitable for mame would fit in here as well.
There are threads like this in Main and Arcade Misc quite often, but I think they are a better fit for this forum. After all they are for sale.
Oh crap, Cheffo agrees with me ... shudder ...
northerngames:
if the poster is not buying it selling it or trading it then it should be in the arcade misc. or everything else section. and not in a bst I see it is not a rule here for this forum section but all the other site's bst sections that is a main rule becuase the bst section gets clogged up with non sense and defeats the whole purpose of the bst.
there is a few hundred maybe a thousand plus rare finds all over the net but they all do not belong in a the bst.
just like:
is this possible?
do they make this thing?
where can I get this whatever at?
do you know where I can find so and so?
I heard there making a new whatever.
etc.
these type of things should not be in bst but maybe I am wrong so I apoligize.
DrumAnBass:
Yah I posted it here as a general interest item to anyone here who might consider buying a piece of arcade history.
No I am not selling it, but I figured this would be the most appropriate forum on BYOC.
If someone finds a particularly cool or interesting item for sale that relates to the general interests of the community here, I would hope they alert me to it. Which is one of the many reasons I spend way too much time here...!
