Games from Portugal
« on: November 23, 2010, 08:54:17 PM »
Found this today, already asked for a list of games and some indication of pricing...

http://www.coinopspace.com/forum/topics/arcades-for-sale-from-portugal

In the case there are some interesting games we might be able to do a group buy or so? And an Armada-Style road trip?

I'd be very suspicious.

The pinball forums in France have stories of these guys in Portugal selling games in bulk that end up being in such a bad state that they end up straight in the trash. Lots of bad stories there.

dont forget guys im only in Spain.  Portugal is about a 6 hour drive for me.

if you guys end up all doing a mass roadtrip you could stop by here and play/fix some games lol

Cheers.

Got an answer this morning:

Right now, we want to sell:
Virtual Game, Green Gold and some other customized arcade boxes;
Radikal Bikers;
Surf Planet;
Race simlators Speed Up - Single Cabinet with Seat, Road Edge Single Cabinet with Seat, Roads Edge Single Standup, Speed Up - Twin, Speed Up - Single Origin Stand Up;
Hyper Tommy Gun 64 - Second Nightmare;
and cranes.

If you want, I can send you photos of the machines by email.


Now, to me this is a bit disappointing, don't know how you guys feel about it? I will ask for pictures however I don't feel this is gonna be succesful.
