Anyone care to share the auction results from last Saturday's auction
in Des Moines? I was heading up there with machines to sell, and broke
down. Had to call the trip off, but it worked out ok, since we had an
auction on Sunday in Kansas City. The auction in KC was normal size,
about 100 pieces (guessing). Not very many classics though, and just
average prices. I'm not the best at noting the prices, because we're
typically "hanging out" with friends, and don't pay much attention to
machines, but here's what I can recall off the top of my head...
Asteroids -- $450
Defender (RAM Failure) -- $375
Centipede -- $360
Donkey Kong -- $425 (I think)
Neo Geo 1 slot -- $110
Golden Tee 2005 -- $950
lots of misc Jamma cabinets with titles like Ikari Warriors, Victory
Road, etc. etc. -- ~$125 each
Pac Man UR -- $350
Ms. Pac Cocktail -- $650
Galaga Cocktail -- $800
Multicade UR's (several) -- averaged $1400 or so
there were a few other oddball classics that I didn't see the hammer
price, namely Zaxxon, Phoenix, and ??
I missed a lot of the games. I remember a Bucky O' Hare went for much
more than I expected, something over $300?
