They're asking 1900, looks HUO, it might be a steal if someone could get it for that price. Nice jukebox too. Wish I was closer!

Someone in NJ needs to get a move on...that site is legit....I get emails from it several times a week. Good luck to the new owner...steal at that price.
Quoted from Pinchroma:I'm close. Ill head over there.
Would try to call and arrange to come over ASAP....will be gone quick at that price....GL 
Quoted from videotrader:They're asking 1900
Where do you see they were asking $1900?
Well played....all those stating its gone. I actuality, it's not for sale until 10am and then its first come first served. There might be a riot in NJ as the price truly is $1900. Tempted to go now but my realistic side is it telling me I'll waste the hour and a half drive to walk into a crying fit of grown men and one happy douche.
Quoted from Andrzej:it's not for sale until 10am and then its first come first served
Actually, you have to go pick up a number and then it is by number (deli counter style). I can't wait to see who got the lower number -- Pinchroma since it looks like he had an hour head start on barakawins or barakawins because he lives 10 minutes from the estate sale. It will be interesting to see how this one shakes out.
I agree with Andrzej here. Being so late to the game at this point, I don't want to waste the 2 hour round trip now only to show up with you other maniacs standing in front of me in line.
Quoted from Rum-Z:Somebody's probably already on it Jim, LOL.
The guy holding card #2.
It wasn't HUO. It was in nice shape. The decals were cut on left and right side of cabinet.
But still a good purchase.

"good purchase" - understatement of the decade.

A good purchase??? It was a freaking steal!!!!!!!!!!! He can easily profit $10k... not a bad days work.
Honestly I had no idea of this Estate Sale ticket system. Essentially you arrive early, get a number, and therefor dibs. I was in the house following the stream of guys heading down to look at the CC. Kevin turned right around, walked up stairs and poof it was spoken for. No bidding ... they didn't want to hear it. Lesson learned.
Next time I walk in the door and scream "I'LL F'IN TAKE IT!!! MINE! MINE! MINE!" 
That site is very cool - but no prices seem to be listed in any of the listings I saw. Do you just have to call, or is there a bidding war when you get there?
Quoted from Blackjacker:Did Kevin say what time he showed up and camped out?
No ... I recognized him and started small talk but he was playing incognito reading a book and didn't really want to chit-chat. A pinball hunter's game of poker face more or less.
Quoted from bigehrl:Sounds like a sausage party.
Oh yeah ... it was quite the weenie-fest of surly looking pinball-folk.
If I were in line waiting for it to open and knew a pinhead was number one in line I woulda pulled aside whoever was running the show and slipped him cash to pull the pin. Lol
Screw the early bird getting the worm

Screw the early bird getting the worm
...and THAT'S why you're GUMBO... 
If I were #1 I still woulda slipped the head honcho a hundred on a steal like that and as insurance against snipers

I agree with THAT...
Quoted from jkdblaze:Whoever set the price on this is quite the shrewd businessman. One shred of research would have revealed the obvious! What a steal!
No doubt.....this is the internet age....suprised there isn't an app for appraised value of things

Quoted from Apollyon:The price that this game went for makes me sick to my stomach.
Only because you didn't get the deal.
They gave away 10 to 12 thousand bucks. That's just stupidity. Does eBay have a current listing? They couldn't check it out. I just want to know how I could've been the first? I work ten minutes from there. Would have been there in a heartbeat. OP-Do you check the site daily? Also, what did juke go for? Did Kevin get that too?

Absolutely!

The way this one worked was first-come, first-serve. Kevin got there before 5 AM. The sale manager gets there an hour or so before the sale, asks people in line what they're there for, and assigns a number based on their response. Kevin was Pinball #1!
