Super Auction Prices Pinball Expo 2008

On Friday night I made a quick mention of some of the final prices at the Pinball Expo 2008 Super Auction. I finalized the photos with prices and have them loaded up in a gallery. Don’t be too surprised when you don’t see very many classic games though. 😉

Makin’ a killing at Super Auctions

Games were going for way below value. My guess would be the circumstances had something to do with that. The economy is bad, there was a limited audience at the Pinball Expo and those were pinball guys. But even the pinball guys didn’t bid up the pins that were there either.

A few highlights in my opinion;

• Nice looking Road Blasters – $40
• After Burner – $50
• Marvel Super Heroes Street Fighter – $75

I know Troy Smith (MtZRcade on the Klov forums) picked up a ton of games, as if he needed more (Probably a good chunk of the 70 mentioned below). Currently he quoted himself as having somewhere in the neighborhood of 500+ games in a warehouse! Keeps the business going I guess.

But for me, I have over 500 games right now. And there are members on here that can verify that I have that much. Hell, i bought over 70 games alone this week.
