I've always wanted a claw machine to put some of my plushies in, just as a cute decoration piece.
Well, it turns out two cities over, there's a manufacturer of such machines liquidating two warehouses worth. There's like 80 claw machines up for auction, ending on the morning of the 20th. Seems like a terrible time to do such a thing when so many entertainment venues are either closed down or at lowered capacity and business owners are nervous about future prospects.
But it could be a real boon for me, cuz fewer interested parties to compete with. This might finally be my chance to own one, instead of just dreaming of it! surprised

Go for it, determine how much you're willing to offer, don't go over that, and see if you get lucky.

Wow, that's a really good price! Especially if it's one of your standard arcade sized claw machines. I think they tend to go for $1000 or more brand new. surprised

Congrats on getting that claw machine. I think it would be neat to have one around. Sad there is no room for one here.

Wow, it was a BEAR getting it home in the bed of the pickup truck. Now it's situated in the garage. Haven't tried plugging it in yet. But I do have an instruction manual!
