Countdown to CGE 2012 ~ August 11-12, 2012 ~ 11 AUG 2012 |
Classic Gaming Expo™ Auction Preview
The Classic Gaming Expo auction is always a highlight of the weekend's events and this year we're kicking it up a notch by offering attendees the opportunity to put a photo preview here on the site as well as for potential buyers to get a peek at some of the items with plenty of time to prepare.
If you've got an item that you intend to bring to Classic Gaming Expo and would like it to appear on this preview page, PayPal us a refundable deposit of $20 and send one or two photos, all of which go to info@cgexpo.com. The deposit is necessary to make sure that people aren't wasting our time or those who will make plans to bid on specific items. Your deposit will be refunded when you register your item at the auction. If your item is not registered at the auction, you will forfeit your deposit and it will be donated to charity. You will get the deposit back when you bring your item to the show. Also please note that just as we do "in person" every year, we reserve the right to reject items to be auctioned. There is a limited number of slots available so get in there now.
Finally, if you would be interested in donating your auction item's proceeds (in whole or in part) to a tax-deductible charity, please let us know.

The picture says most of it. Plaque presented to Atari by Motorola
