What gameroom wouldn't be complete without a photo booth!
Back at the auction, late afternoon, the pins go out the
door.
Here's a better look at that Paragon pin that went for
around $375 earlier in the day. As you can see, the solenoid driver
board is missing. A Stern Trident project pin went for around $350
to a new home also.
The Paragon pin also had one display missing.
A Seeburg juke,
circa early 70's.
I can't remember
the exact price of this Ms. Pac-Man cocktail vid, but I remember it went
cheap.
Finally, it was time to bid on Kuri Kinton. There was a
minor bidding war, however......
I won! Woo hoo! $130...sold!
Galaga went cheap, and unfortunately I didn't see it until the
game had already sold, which sucks, because this is one of my favorite classic
vids. This semi rare cabaret version went for around $700. I can
remember when the asking price for even a cabaret Space Invaders vid or Ms.
Pac Man was $1k or more at various shows I have attended over the years.
If I remember correctly, Congo sold for over $1k, but I forget
exactly how much. The movie wasn't that great but I've played Congo on
location and at shows, and in my opinion, it's a great game, with a few video
modes and good ramp shots.
