We haven't mentioned this to much yet but we are having a live auction during the Age of Gamers Expo for you to auction off some of your rare goodies live and in person. We will have a wireless mic and speaker system so the auction should be comedy gold as well.

Anyone can bring an item to auction off as well, you don't have to be a vendor or sponsor to sell an item. Once we get a few items confirmed for live auction we will add them onto the expo website so they the sellers can build some hype. Feel free to post some pics or tell us what rare or obscure items you will be bringing here and get the hype rolling for them.

I will have 2 item for sure, and maybe a few others to auction off. I will have a Limited Ed. Ditka Football for sure and a special NA charity cart (more coming on that soon). So post em if you got em.

Better hope that NA Mystery cart wasn't in someone's pants! I can see the value sky rocketing now!

I will be sending over a signed Glider. John Calhoun and I signed the cart, box, and manual when I presented him with his personal copy. It is in the demo clear cart instead of the standard red cart. Hope it gets at least the selling price of a normal copy

You're not gonna be there Brian? I was going to load up on your releases... are you at least sending a "representative" with some of your stock?

-------------------------

My mantra, as worded by SamSpade on 06/12/12:

I don't resell to fund my collection, I don't treat this hobby like a second job, I don't care if my collection is worth ten bucks or ten thousand because I never plan on selling it. Seriously, what does the value have to do with anything if you never plan on selling? Speculation doesn't mean jack shit to me at this point, I just want to play my nes games...

Damn... I may have to bid on that Glider! Is that a conflict of interest?

If I can find a picture of my mom, I'm gonna get her to sign it and send it with Basil for the auction...get your dollars ready!

"It's always amazing to me how some of the most worthless games from a gaming perspective tend to fetch outrageous amounts of money. But then again, it could be said that something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. I'm curious if the high bidder of the $873.04 Stadium Events (cart-only) realizes that it's nowhere nearly as rare as about 20+ games I can think of that sell for 1/10th that amount? At any rate, I wanted to draw attention to this trend: if people say it's rare, it must be true, and therefore it must be had at any price."

I expect high demand for the only known picture of my mom, especially with her autograph

And Jason decided to schedule the Expo the same day as my sister's wedding. Can't be in two places at once, and family is more important than anything else.

I'm going to have some NES prototype of something, and possibly Geminim Limited Edition for auction. Maybe some more stuff. Campus Challenge Nintendo cup?

Anyone else have something they want to let us know about? We will be adding the stuff to the site in the next day or 2. What better way to create some buzz for your high end items.

edit--doesn't have to be NES stuff either, can be anything gaming.

It is pretty much a traveling cart that has been sent around the US and Canada and is being signed by about 30 members of NA. Each member is taking a pic with the cart which will be printed off and auctioned off at the expo with the cart. We have some pretty good images already, really neat item for sure.

Will there be a pic of Erik with the cart? The pic alone would be worth a ton!
