@TimePilot....sorry for my Hard (Drivin') reply ;)

Anyway, I put up a "wanted" list in the first posting. Please all check and let me know if I missed something.

Looking good so far. Regarding prices, I think no one really has to worry....
Let's CLEAN that warehouse people ;)

@Polder: that would be GREAT.

Let us know when you convinced your dad  :)

For those interested: For now I am thinking about arranging ONE "pick up day" at the seller's warehouse.
The guy doesn't speak English and doesn't seem to do any internet comms. So it will be a nightmare to have stuff picked up one at a time etc.
And I'm going into the busiest time of year for me, extra rehearsals and performances with the drum band, both my and wife's birthday in november and of course december....anyway, I want to spend as little time as possible and not going to arrange everything "per cab".

Things could improve on that front if Polder would be able to help out....but that's uncertain for now....

Only if we can arrange something with f.i. Polderarcade,

I would LOVE to see that Power Drift go to someone !

I would LONG have it myself if I had the space. It's one of the rare games I loved to play after the Golden Age in the arcade at Scheveningen.
I had the upright for a while and although a fun game, the movement of the machine AND sitting down is half the fun...especially because the screen tilts in the corners....

Yup, already put that up in the list. I _think_ there was one Breakout left and you were the first to "ring the bell"....

im quite lucky here as i rent part of a big dis-used bar, and the owner is very understanding :)

level42 - are there any more recent pics of the place and what else is there ?

oh, and if and when i ever get organised and get a substantial number of my games working i think there may be a spain-meet 1.0 ;)

cheers,

Hi, the seller is Flemish so the French won't be actually helpful this time ;)

The Gee Bee is already gone. Was sold to Robby. He put it on Marktplaats a few weeks later and we don't know if he sold it or still has it.
About the Taito's...let's see what's left...put you on the list !

Updated in list !

Polder is willig to offer some space and help in this group-buy ! However, since he will need some space where normally caravan's are stalled we need to pay some storage fee. So, people needing this keep this in mind. No idea how much it will be...we'll have to figure that out. Of course if it comes to a "big haul" from The Warehouse (TM) to Polderarcade (who lives in the Amsterdam area) the goal should still be to get your cab out of his place ASAP....
