    Cleaning out an arcade storage warehouse and arcade repair shop

    So I just got the last load form my most recent job today. It was a acrade storage warehouse and in the back is where they built and repaied the games. In total on the large items I got 17 arcades and 2 jukes boxes. Also got a heaping truck bed and a heaping 6x10 tailer full of boards and wire. I pulled out 2k pounds of metal that covered my fuel and grubbage for the past 2 days.. Lots o parts for ebay put in the barn As of right now I have no clue of any quanties as everything was in totes and was just dumped in the truck and trailer. Pics to follow!! God Bless!

    If any of those arcade games are whole and still work they can be worth some serious cash!

    FYI, once you get settled in and start working on the arcades shoot me a list of some stuff you got so i can send it to a local buddy of mine. He is an avid buyer of arcades and arcade parts.

    You can only see them if you turn all the lights out in the house,,,
    Kind of like a glow-in-the-dark thing.
