Interesting challenge. I'm not sure I could do it... I suppose I could sell my body, but where would I find a thousand people??

So yeah, I have a project I want to do, that will cost $1350. So I'm using this goal to motivate myself. To process, clean and repair a number of different project's I have laying around the work shed and back room. Namely video game related.
I've listed a number of items on ebay, klov and kijiji. Ranging primary from console and coin operated video games. As well as respectively their parts.
On my to do list. Finish rebuilding 8 Nintendo Arcade 8way joysticks and list them. Rebuild 8 xm1801 and EZ monitor chassis. Do a varied amount of clean up and take pictures of random items I'm cleaning and sorting in house, to de clutter my storage/work area. So basically spring cleaning in January.
While i'm doing this, I get contacted from a guy I know that's been hording Nes Consoles for a few years. Hes' like I have 60 of them. You interested. I'm like yes. Details to be negotiated. Really don't want to drop the cash. Hoping on trade.

Haha, Nice. Problem with the Stampede is that there are so many other people giving it up for free!

Just need to accessorize. Offer Bacon sandwich with the service. Bacon makes everything better.
