EH / Collector Connector sales

[pennymachines]

It loads OK on my tablet and phone (both Android), but it's a big page, so that might be an issue. I could try splitting it into 2 pages (tomorrow).

Haha I know why, my subscription has expired

Some bargains there for the non-mainstream collector.
I'll be at the next one.

Anyone going to Steve's on site Auction at Gateshead. He first said there was going to be slot machines... Wow the only one I can see is a egg vender.........

[pennymachines]

Not if that really is the only one...

As he is selling the stock of a Architectural salvage business I had not envisaged there being slot machines.
The next sale at the EH is a January clear out, where it's more likely to have slot machines.

I was only going off what Steve wrote on his site a while back. "and yes there will be slot machines"..... But obviously not.....................

[pennymachines]

Disappointing - I put it in the Calendar because of that comment. The 'January Junk Clearout' will, I think, be as described (junk).
Never mind - the Las Vegas sale (26-27) is full of arcade treasures.

Apologies I had not read that. I just look at the catalogues.
Perhaps there will be some last minute additions.

The auction is in mccartneys yard
Don't know wether steve knows this
But he's got machines on ebay
Now
And he had a sale at the weekend everything in the yard 50% off
If steve has pictures on his site and it's been sold last weekend
It ain't going to be good for the buyer
I hope the owner tells him this
Which he is not probably likely to I bet
So I would make enquiries first

Don't see any machines on eBay local to me? Must of missed them
If he's done that Steve wants to pull the plug

[jingle]

Here we go

A lot of this stuff has been in ebay for ever. Also some of their stock has come from the elephant and some of their stuff has sold in the elephant, like the chalk vendor above. Their website and Facebook page has been very clear on the sale by the elephant for many weeks, so not sure there should be surprises. Suspect Steve’s page will be updated this week with final list.

Tough game these businesses, so many come and go with high prices etc. Nothing there for me, but if no reserves maybe bargains for someone....

[jimmycowman]

Proof I'm not going mad..... Or madder lol

[treefrog]

Now says bandits and Allwins to be online by tomorrow.....

Still not going, where the hell is Gateshead

Unless of course the machines are special special special, but I doubt and live in hope

Any opinions regarding the two Allwins listed for the Gateshead sale. The second one has no maker indicated but seems to have some BM.Co heritage especially what appears to be a thick track. One of this company`s machines is top of my list for a first "original" purchase but the venue is way too far for me.

[pennymachines]

503 has some BMCo heritage by the look of it (Little Fivewin). The mirror top obviously doesn't belong.
504 is a Chinese repro (Nostalgic Amusements).

I see the latest EH auction was canceled

[aristomatic]

Auctioneer Hospitalised

[brianh]

I understand EH auction to be re-scheduled for Feb but meanwhile I think we would all wish Steve's mum a speedy recovery.
