$26 with about a week to go.

Local pickup required.

How did you find that auction? Seems like a long way from your location.

They don't separate auctions by location, just by category.

this baby will be mine

But as I don't even have a house to put it in, let alone meet the requirement for "local pickup", I guess I'm out of luck. Congrats if you do get it, metal.

This is so damn tempting.... I need more space

I've been wanting an arcade machine for the longest time now. I wish that I lived close by. I hope that you get it metal. Sweet auction. I wonder if the ones that Target will have on sale next week are any good and if I can plug in my current consoles to work with it. I might have to cave in.

what the hell? since when did goodwill get in the auction business?

i am thinking the same thing, if i had the space i would jump on this

o.o If I had a truck to get that thing home, I would be all the hell over this.


I'm still thinking of bidding and then seeing if I can shang-hai one of my friends into letting me borrow one of their trucks.

mega cool! i'm going to have to cinvince my uncle to lend my his van to take this puppy home.

just curious if any of you got this?

my max bid was around 60 bucks i think. so, no i lost it in the last few minutes

We've had discussions about them before, those who have had time with it in person state they had cheap, shoddily made, pieces of shit.

I was able to play it for a few minutes the other day and I have to agree with you. It's too small and feels unlike an arcade. It's made for short people. I do like the one that Costco has though. Too bad that it's so freaking expensive. The games on it bring back a ton of memories.

If pickup was not required I would buy it.

Sorry, OT, but the costco in my area had standup arcade units that looked high quality w/lots of games included for about $2K. I'm guessing it's basically a PC w/monitor rigged inside a real arcade cabinet, but I didn't look it over all that closely beyond checking out what games it had.
