USAmusement Auction (November 2, 2002) Pics
DISCLAIMER:
Just to let
everyone know - I am in no way associated with US Amusements' auctions,
nor are the games pictured in the Auction pages of my site mine, except
as noted ("MINE! MINE! MINE!, for example"). I occasionally sell my own
games there, or buy new games for my collection, but that's the extent
of it. I would have thought that was perfectly clear, but apparently
there's a number of folks out there who think otherwise.
To
be
kind, I've only loaded poor-quality thumbnails on this page. Click on
the
picture to take a look at the larger, clearer image, then hit your
"Back"
button to come back to this page.
It's
that time again, USAA auction time! Lots of entertaining pictures
below. Again, few of the prices are posted - I could only stay for
pictures and a few of the misc. junk items at the beginning. Thanks to
Hans O for providing the prices I do have here.
A
couple of general notes: 1. Lots of sniper/shooting games. Normally
there are quite a few shooters, but TWO Silent Scope 2 games? Looks
like yet another sign that the sniper panic on the East coast has
traveled to the Midwest.
This
auction's front-runner for the Bad Conversion award: my vote is the
Gauntlet-to-Vindicators game. Ick.
See
if you can spot all the conversions in the below pictures, and send me
an e-mail with your vote for the worst conversion of this auction. I'll
start a running feature, and the conversion that gets the most votes
from each auction will go into a special "Hall of Shame" section on
the site. Check out the previous auctions I have pictures from on this
site and submit candidates from those as well. Just make sure you tell
me the picture name (right click and look for the "View Image" or
similar
option, it should tell you the file name) and which auction it's from.
Submit your entries here.
