Today was “game over” for two of my arcade machines. Troy, Terry and Darry from the Phoenix Arcade<\/a> stopped by and picked up my Q*Bert and Zaxxon machines.<\/p>\n

I bought the Q*Bert machine four or five years ago at a garage sale. My friend Tim saw the machine for sale at the garage sale and called me. A few minutes later, I was racing across town to pick up my new machine. The machine looked and played great the entire time I owned it. Mason was actually a little upset I sold this one. It’s one of his favorites.<\/p>\n

I bought the Zaxxon machine at an auction a year or two ago and it’s been nothing but trouble. When I bought it, the game was working. By the time I got it home, the monitor had developed some sort of problem. Now, the machine doesn’t even power up. From what I understand, one of the guys’ friends has a machine and is going to use this one as a parts machine. It’ll work great for that.<\/p>\n

The guys got some games they were looking for, and I got paid. Everybody’s happy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
