NBA Jam PCB and Marquee
by Dr. Matthew Roller 28 Apr '08

28 Apr '08

I am new to the list, I recently became interested in collecting arcade machines. Would anyone like a working NBA Jam PCB and sound board, and marquee insert? If someone wanted it locally it would save me the hassle of putting it on e-bay and shipping it. I will take whatever you want to pay for it, and you can pick it up at my clinic. -- Dr. Matthew Roller 9351 S 1300 E Sandy, UT 84094 801-255-3925 http://www.rollerchiropractic.com

Anyone buy anything local lately?
by Sean McLachlan 17 Apr '08

KSL has had quite a few games lately. I emailed the guy with the nice 6 or 8 games for sale about the Gyruss, but never heard back. Just wondering if there have been any local scores lately. I know Jeff R has picked up a Star Wars and a Spy Hunter, but I don't think they were from around here. -- Sean McLachlan

13" monitor on ebay
by Sean McLachlan 17 Apr '08

There is a 13" WG monitor on the bay I'm bidding on, and since ebay no longer shows bidder names, I figured I'd request dibs on it. Looks like my new ebay id is "h***e" :-0 http://cgi.ebay.com/Video-Game-Arcade-Monitor_W0QQitemZ230242509882 That said, if you really need it, go ahead and bid. No hard feelings. But I'll cost you at least $90. :-) -- Sean McLachlan

Just toying with the idea. If this peaks your interest, let me know. Four wheel drive, auto clutch are the only stipulations I have up front. -- Sean McLachlan

Two Asteroids cabs on KSL
by Jeff Rivera 03 Apr '08

03 Apr '08

I'm sure you guys all check regularly, but there are two Asteroids cabs on KSL from the same seller going for $300. One plays blind, but the other one works fine but the seller says it has a dim screen. The dim screen one could be a real steal. You may just need to adjust the brightness, or possibly do a new cap kit. Just a heads up... -- ---Jeff Rivera--- jeff(a)i4.net jar155(a)gmail.com jar155(a)yahoo.com
