Title: Re: Anyone going to this weekend's Rochester, MN Show????? Post by: Seven181 on August 10, 2009, 03:21:23 pm I was told by a friend that it is a advertising and collectable show. He said there is always soda machines, slots, pinballs and other gaming stuff there. Are you far from there? I am trying to buy a small cavalier 33 from a guy in Canada and he is going to the show. John (Signguy) was trying to help me, but he is out of town on vacation. I was looking for someone to pick it up and hold it for a few weeks, until I can get it shipped.

Post by: vend_dr on August 10, 2009, 06:16:01 pm I won't be going to the show but if he's coming from Canada there is a chance he would be driving close to my house and even closer to my workplace. I live in Cambridge Minnesota 15 miles west of Interstate 35. I work in South St Paul just east of highway 52 the main highway to Rochester from the Twin Cities. If you can work something out with the seller I can store it for awhile. I do not have a way to transport it so he would have to be willing to drop it off at one of the 2 locations. Also you would have to work out the payment details as my hobby funds are dry at the moment.
Title: Re: Anyone going to this weekend's Rochester, MN Show????? Post by: Seven181 on August 10, 2009, 06:30:41 pm Thanks. It's paid for already. The guy I bought it for is having a friend bring it. I guess he is only willing to take it to the Rochester show though. Seems weird, but he wants it picked up there. He will not drop it off anywhere. If I can not get it picked up at the show, he said he will put it in his storage unit until the Sep show and I can pick it up then. I was hoping not to wait that long. It is a small machine. Only about 4 Feet tall, 130 pounds. It's a cavalier c-33.

I drive an E 250 cargo van so getting it would be no problem if you can talk him into it.
Title: Re: Anyone going to this weekend's Rochester, MN Show????? Post by: Seven181 on August 11, 2009, 10:55:48 am Hey Guys! The guy I bought it off of is having a friend bring it from Canada. This guy will not stop anywhere though. Not sure why?? He will take it to the Rochester show and if I can get it picked up great, if not he will store it unitl next month's show. Then I will have to get it picked up. I was just hoping someone lived up near there and could grab it for me.

Too bad the guy couldn't drop it off,, Like I said in my message the other day, he drove right by my Brother in laws place in Lakeville, would have taken him 10 minutes to get off the highway, drop it off and back on the road.. Oh well, Call me as I still have one other possibility... John |
