NJ Arcade Auction
Basement Arade Mark has finally had a chance to put up his
carefully recorded prices from the most recent New Jersey Arcade auction, from March of this year. I was in attendance of this much-lamented auction, and left empty-handed, sadly. I think the only real heartbreak of the show, since on average the prices were too high for my tastes, was a perfect condition, working great,
Sunset Riders 4-player. This is one of
the Uncle's very favorite games, and it was a nightmare that there it sat, would not fit in my pickup with the cap attached, and was one of the few machines that didn't have a crowd of interest around it. Careful readers of the Preserve and listeners of the UncleCasts may recall a discussion along these tragic lines.
In the grand scheme of things, of course, it's just as well that it went home with someone else, but it still hurt then, and the pain lingers a little now when I saw the price on his list.
