Re: Elephant House Auctions
I am sure prices will get posted soon, but wow , they were even higher this time round......no machines for me
A number of allwins went into record books and with limited bandits, they fetched amazing prices. Paul I think you will be happy with your Hi Top, top money. It was helped by a tv team filming for some antique program with that guy Jessie from storage hunters in the US bidding big money for some stuff

Re: Elephant House Auctions
of course it's entirely possible there is an innocent seller in South East London who thinks a "foreign and shady" i.e. Scouser and Jingle, bloke has randomly phoned him and offered him readies and he is being naturally cautious
Re: Elephant House Auctions
back to subject..........interested to know what Jessie from Storage Hunters bought, and what the high prices were the bandits went for treefrog? There seemed to be a varied mix of machines this auction, was it well attended?
Re: Elephant House Auctions
It's funny when he was bidding, I was going to shout out Money, every time I bid, but that British reserve kicked in and stopped me. In fact at the end of the auction he tried rally everyone and got little response. He should know we Brits don't make fools of ourselves, except those idiots on UK Storage Hunters.
He bid on lots of things, won the Space Invaders for 600 and I think the black cherry, which went over 800. The Hi Top went for 600. Him being there seemed to lift prices in some ways as black cherry had wrong mechanism in it. The best bandit there the Nixie machine, I think made 380, but may have not met it's reserve again.
Mutoscope I think made over 1600

Re: Elephant House Auctions
thanks treefrog , probably a good auction to be selling things in, not so much if buying. How did the working models do?
