Ok - since I only got a $1.00 donation on my last request - I am not going to ask for any money.
I will buy this but I need someone willing to do local pickup and drop it off at my place (Western Canada)..... LOL

Either one of those would look good but might spin the elec meter a little faster. Maybe you could use one of those stationary bicycles with a generator to power it.  What's that black thing in the bear's front right paw??

That's from The Soaring Eagle Casino in Mt Pleasent MI.
Watched the video, sounds great and the jumping fish are cool.
That would look good in my backyard.  :72-

You need to go get it Jay!!

Jay:

Stay stick to your guns!  I am always looking for nice neon for my game room.  Not much of anything out here in the North East.  The bigger signs are out of my price range and space range as well.  Let us know what you end up with.

Very cool display with sound effects!  I did notice that the seller only posted pictures (and video) of one side
I wonder if the other side is damaged?  :103-  I would assume that there is an electronic sign display on the opposite side as well.

You know, if I still lived in Michigan I would be silly enough to buy it. My wife remembers that sign and used to play the S2000's that were under it, about 10 years ago. She believes it had a motion sensor to start the sound effects, I think it was a timer.

A road trip from Nevada to Michigan and then Canada?  :215-   This time of year?   :218- No way!!  It's in the 60's F here today, think I'll stay put.  :287-    :BBQ-

What's that black thing in the bear's front right paw??


At first it looked like a cell phone. :186-  But upon closer examination :209- it looks like it's just something in the background.

He was listing on eBay a while back for $900
That one in the first picture would be the only one I would be interested in.
He's not interested in breaking up a set.

Jay, your tastes seem to be shrinking. :5- That Video Poker sign would hardly be visible from your second story roof.  :60-  :30-


BTW,
Ok - since I only got a $1.00 donation on my last request - I am not going to ask for any money.
I will buy this but I need someone willing to do local pickup and drop it off at my place (Western Canada)..... LOL

I'm sure someone could deliver it for the bargain price of $13,500...  If you hire me, it'll only cost you $13,490 !! :200- :208- :208- (inside joke)

Title: Taking Donations vs Road Trip!
Post by: BadMaddison on February 20, 2014, 12:34:54 PM
Hey you guys;

The opening bid is down to $150.

He might have a reserve, but since the way-cool Fitzgerald's sign is gone...

Does anyone on here ever do pick-em-up / drop-em-off road trips?

The video is very cool.
