  1. Never in my wildest dreams did I think ChaseTheChuckwagon.com would reach 400 members in just a bit over 2 months. But it happened last night. And now we are well on our way to the next real big milestone of 500 members. It has been my goal to hit 2000 in the first year, and I will be doing what ever I can to assure that happens.

     

    After that, I feel the site will start to grow perpetually bigger, faster. A snow ball effect as they say. Either way, I want send out big Thank You to AtariAge and many of you AtariAge Members who have registered over the past couple months.

     

    Thanks, again and see you around the Chuckwagon!


  2. Hello everyone.

     

    I've decided to sell my beloved Kickman arcade game to make way for a Millipede I have due in a few weeks.

    The game is in great shape. The cabinet and controls are wonderful. The screen is very sharp and clear. It has been the centerpiece of my living room for over a year. I had an arcade tech install new caps and give it a once over recently. Looking for $399/obo. I'm eager to sell fast so make me an offer!

     

    I am also open to trades for Atari Jaguar, Colecovision, and Vectrex items as payment towards this coin-op.

     

    Shipping is the responsibity of the purchaser. I'm willing to hold the game for a couple weeks to allow time for the purchaser to scheudle freight if required. I am located near Boston, MA. Fell free to PM me with any questions.

     

    I'll edit this post and put pictures of the machine on here Sunday night as I forgot to upload them from my camera before I left for my parent's place for the weekend.

     

    In the meantime, here's a few links on it including screenshots:

    Killer List of Video Games , Digital Press Kickman Review , Wikipedia

     

    Thank you for your time!

     

    Best regards.

    I wish you were closer. Actually, I am listing some games on ChaseTheChuckwagon.com by the guy(s) who made that game for Bally Midway. Jeff Nauman and Brian Colin. I loved that game !


  3. hey Mike, just curious, how often do the featured items on the front page rotate?

     

    It is completely random. But if you hit refresh on your own computer it may take a while for them to reorganize. Remember, though that everyone who pulls up the home page will be seeing a different selection so even though an item may not be visible on your screen at that exact time, it may be visible on someone elses. Does that make sense ?

     

    Great items by the way. I think you are getting bids on all of them. It's pretty amazing how many items are getting bids on the Chuckwagon. It is a testament to the great Sellers we have and the great items they are listing. The Chuckwagon is slowly becoming a place for collectors to buy and sell higher ticket, more desireable items :)

     

    thanks, and yes that makes perfect sense... if these do well, I will def. be putting more stuff up. my mortgage just got approved today, so I will need some extra cash on hand for furnishings etc. and hopefully a cabinet for my garage :D .. too bad all of the ones up for bid on your site are in cali..lol

     

    Great to hear. And congrats on your home. We just went through all that a couple years ago. Nothing like having your own place :) And, the first thing I did was load up on a bunch of arcade games for my home office/arcade. You got to have priorities ya know ;)

     

    Please spread the word of your auction successes on any other forums you frequent. That is the best way to help grow the site. Good luck winning the Summer Classic Gaming Give Away :)

  9. I didn't know you could lose points. That explains why I could never get very close to the ark.

     

    Today at the swap meets I found a lot of 2600 carts and instructions. As part of the instructions lot there was an booklet from Atari "Raiders of the Lost Ark Solution Sheet". This is a very large bi-fold appears to be on antique paper walk through of the whole game. Never seen it before. It has step-by-step instructions and screen shots to help you finish the game.


  10. Since there does not seem to be any really good database for Coleco games like there is here for Atari Carts, I was wondering if anyone has any idea what the rarity ratings are on these game for the Colecovision system:

     

    Rocky Super Action Boxing

    Subroc

    BC's Quest for Tires - Grog's Revenge

    BC's Quest for Tires

    Cabbage Patch Kids

    Smurf - Rescue at Garamel's Castle.

     

    I know, I really do need to order a copy of DP!

     

    According to DP:

     

    Super Action Boxing - $5 R2

    Subroc - $5 R2

    Grogs Revenge - $15 R4

    Quest For Tires (Love this game) - $12 R3

    Cabbage Patch Kids Adventures in the Park - $8 R3

    Smurf - Rescue - $4 R1


  11. Here is offical Press Release stating auction start times. This should be fun. If you are an arcade game collector, especially in the Midwest, you will want to take a serious look at this. If you have yet to register on ChaseTheChuckwagon.com, please consider as auctions like this don't happen every day :)
