Quoted from xsvtoys:From what I can remember at the museum, it looks like a lot of these weren't installed in the museum. There are definitely some that were on the floor, but these are the minority. I see Hercules listed, is it possible he had 2 Hercules? Or maybe the $18,000 sale didn't go through at the first auction?
I can confirm this now. I was there Saturday morning early. I've known Chris Cambell, "Captain" for over 15 years. I've bought games here, and sold games here. I live 25 min away. I'm lucky, it's always been convenient.
I asked Chris directly. He would never lie to me.
These machines where from a private collector that was tired of storing them. Not John Weeks. Whom I'm also friends with. I also was all over that banning Auction like flies on shit.
I was a purchasing agent for 5 clients, and transported machines to PAGG that year for 3 other clients.
These we're all different machines including the Hercules. What I do know is that "said" private collector bought a game or 2 from banning, and many from captain's floor over the years.
Hope this info helps for all that are curious.
My only regret is not picking up a few em's last weekend for 500-700. I did bid on 3, and the Bally Lost world. But that was it. I won nothing.
That's good, I need nothing.
