What's next on liquidation sales from old stock?
So we've all seen the Ollie's deals this past weekend. We've seen some of those allegedly sold out a few years ago MvC2 1st edition and X-Men 97, Ms Pacman Deluxe (black vault edition), mixed with some even Ollie's struggled to give away (Pacmania), and even some that are on their 2nd run through Ollie's annual buyouts (NFL Blitz). NFL Blitz may even appear again, as it was rumored at its release 50K units were ordered. Other cabs had runs around 5K units? Then the drama w/online and no late-hits happened.
Arcade1up is now a brand under Basic Fun, and obviously inherited some dead stocks in the deal. What other potential late-Generation cabs are you waiting for that may show up in dead stock liquidation stores? I am hoping for some unsold Time Crisis to pop up at a discount. I wouldn't doubt some F&F racing cabs remain unsold, even after at least a 2nd production run.
Last holiday season, we all saw one big-box store fly through several pallets of MK2 Deluxe at $299 right after the news of the merger/buyout. I believe all those MK2 are gone? What's still out there in the old warehouses?
Final Edit for the downvoters: I'm just curious what cabs you waited for that got away before the merger, and sure there's always the FOMO of paying full retail before running the dice on ANY discounts. I look forward to whatever is coming, especially an XL MK. I just know that for those following this company for 7 years, some waited too long on "certain" cabs. What are you hoping pops back up in other markets?
