Man cave alert: Dunedin man's retro arcade games and jukebox collection

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Time to search for those old 20 cent pieces, as vintage arcade games, slot machines, and jukeboxes prepare to go under the hammer.

Ronnie Proctor of Proctor Auctions' auction collection includes a rugby themed slot game and more than a dozen jukeboxes to choose from, featuring dozens of individual records from AC/DC to ZZ Top.

The auction, being held in Dunedin on Sunday, is limited to 100 people on the floor due to Covid-19, but punters can also listen online, and use an app to bid in real-time.
