CGE 2007 Auction Night - What are you bringing?

[vectrexer]

Hi All,

Wondered what people will be bringing for the Saturday Auction Night action?

I will probably bring more boxed Vectrex items.

[DreamTR]

I might bring some protos and sealed games....

[Vectorman0]

Money

[esquire]

I went to the last CGE in Las Vegas before the move, but not to the auction. I did go to the swap meet though. Can anyone tell me what are good things to bring to either, besides money?

[megamaniaman]

I will probably bring my Intellivision Super Series Baseball with box and overlays. Too bad it does not have instructions. That should pay for the trip in gas and the price of admission. I live 3 and half hours away.

[Mayhem]

Yeah, money heh. If you've got any of the Kouso games I still need Chris, then I'd probably grab them

If I haven't sold my Eli's Ladder by then I might throw it in just for the sheer WTF nature of it...

(though there would be a reserve of course!)

[Jumpman Jr.]

What Vectorman said

[CX2K]

I'll be bringing Sean Kelly.

I know he's not worth much but I'm really broke.

John

[Jumpman Jr.]

I'll offer you a case of Corona

[GrandAmChandler]

I'll offer you a case of Corona

I'll see your bid and raise you 3 whole limes.

[Jumpman Jr.]

Ooooooo

[Nicola]

Well, if I come from Italy, I'll be glad to bring something unusual for the auction.
What would you like to see between these?

-NES Ice Climber SMALL BLACK BOX (1987) NOS
-NES Tennis SMALL BLACK BOX (1987) NOS (these small box variants are really uncommon in Italy. I presume that these titles with this box, similar to the Japanese one, were distributed by Wonderland at the very beginning)
-some GB protos
-Atari VCS pirates from Italy (I should have some NOS games)

Hrmmm, let's see. VCS priates are pret- Game Boy Protos! natch.

I'll be bringing something extra special... *grin*

Let's just say its a game proto nobody thought existed, and
it's a very high profile proto. Other than that I won't say jack
about it.

Auction night? What exactly goes down on auction night, besides bidding for items?

Can we actually bring items for people to bid on?

Man, THAT is tantalizing! I better start saving up. Good thing tax returns are coming soon.

Yup, but the auctioneers only take high-dollar, high-profile, or highly-unusual items to be auctioned.

Take a gander at these threads for some of the stuff that has been auctioned off at past CGEs.

As you can see, you can't really dump your box of loose Combat carts into the auction. Gotta be special.

Oh, that's going to be so cool.

Thanks for the linkage, Sniderman. As for that box of Combat carts, you think they'll accept a box of SMB/DH NES carts? lol j/k

I might bring some stuff for sale. Depends on where I stand in terms of 'spring cleaning' which is coming up very soon for me.
