That is pretty epic.

I would wager it could easily fetch 4 times as much if it was parcelled out, but I can understand if the guy doesn't want to spend the time on that.

I doubt you'd still have a wife afterward! She'd see you pull up with the load, and instantly imagine the piles of yellowed 80's consoles stacked up in the bedroom, while you chain smoke through a hideous moustache, playing SNES all day in your briefs... :lol:

Quite a few interesting items in there.  There's a Toshiba machine which looks familiar.  I just hope I had the good sense one day to do what this guy is doing and not leave it to my family to clear out in an estate sale :D

He should take a month off work and sell these items individually. He'd get a crazy amount of money.

Wow! This would make a wonderful addition to Frankos Commodore museum. I wonder how much the shipping would cost? Even better, Franko the slimey bugger could just move into one of those arcade cases. Franko doesn't need a house. No really he doesn't! :roflmao:
Even my cat doesn\'t like me.
