    People, always get photos before driving 250 miles based on a sellers "opinion". I feel like a dumbass/also someone who got hosed, into a possible sale that was based on false info. Someone who is new to pinball would have been hosed on this "deal" IMO. I was offered a "nice" Hokus Pokus for $800. Asked for pics, never got any, but stupidly decided to drive and waste my time and gas, and my girls free time, to go check it out, based on the description I had received. I got there, and the backglass that is "touched up with triple thick but has vibrant colors and looks fine"... Looks like trash. You cannot even read ANY of the balls in play. The cabinets also quite rough, even though described as nice. LESSON LEARNED.NEVER again will I wSte my time on this kind of BS.
