Hi I am new to the hobby, I finally have a game room and the money to get started.
I have found 2 machines and the owner is asking 1400 for both
One is a Big Hurt is that in good shape just needs a flipper rebuild
And the other is a Baywatch that works and looks great
Not sure i really want to keep Baywatch; was thinking about reselling if I get it.
Dose this sound like a decent deal?
I also found a Tales From the Crypt for 1200, thinking its too scary for the kids.

Big Hurt $1200
Baywatch $ 1500
Tales from the Crypt $2500

$5200 > $2600

I think you did fine now clean them up and get them working 100% play them and flip the ones you do not want.

Best of luck

Get the Big Hurt for the kids, TFTC for the wife, and Pamela Anderson for yourself.

#4 10 years ago

I am looking for Baywatch, I can travel depending on how far.

#5 10 years ago

TFTC, disable adult in settings.

#6 10 years ago

I am going to pick up the Big hurt first its a good fit for my house
Just found out the Baywatch has a non working DMD and from what I see is not always a cheep fix.
The TFTC is about a 3 hour drive from me, so if I can get it a little cheaper i may be driving all day Sunday
Thanks for all your help guys!

Good choice! You can get your flipper rebuild kit here- http://pbresource.com/rebuildkit.html

TFTC for $1200 is a steal go get it now.

These are all much too high of prices. Baywatch can still be had close to the $1000 level, Big Hurt too. TFTC is probably more like $2k.

Still a worthwhile purchase though.

#10 10 years ago

Agree with Baywatch being about a 1k ish game, and I wouldn't touch one with display issues, not worth it, at least for that price. Big Hurt for $1200 I would buy right now, looking for one actually, and that price is about what it is worth. If you are looking at flipping either of these don't bother....

#11 10 years ago

Baywatch is a ton of fun, I planned to keep mine for a little bit and then sell, turned into a keeper.

Super exclusive ad from the Pinside Marketplace!

It all depends on where you live.

I haven't seen a BW for anything near $1k, always 1500+.
BH I just never see for sale, but its a gottlieb dmd. So around 1000-1200 in good condition. I paid $1k for my WW in pretty good shape.

TFTC is more near 2k these days, if it is above 2k it better be in really nice shape, I agree.

#13 10 years ago

If I saw a TFTC for $1200, I'd be driving, not posting about it!

#14 10 years ago

I found BW in awesome shape for $2200. Would I be insane to buy it for that much?

#15 10 years ago

BW imo isn't worth $2200. Those Gottlieb sys 3's are usually around 1000-1400, but stargate is a higher price. If it was proven HOU, maybe. But I would say if it is mint maybe $1400? The game is kind of rare.....

#16 10 years ago

BW is about $1400 as posted above, so yes, you would be insane.

#17 10 years ago

That's what I thought, I just needed to hear a voice outside of my head tell me that! Thanks guys!

#18 10 years ago

cleavage in your game room? Priceless

I'm actually next door in Wisconsin. I picked up my Baywatch not too long ago, sub $1k with working display. It was publicly on the market for a few days before I pulled the trigger too. The cab is a little beat up / yellowed, but other than that... no issues.

Heck freaking ya! I miss gottlieb's. kinda want another one.

#21 10 years ago

Baywatch was Sega, not Gottlieb. Gottliebs seem to pop up FAR less frequently, but are almost always lower priced.

I own four Gottliebs. I like 'em

#22 10 years ago

Oh ya sega, and it had the huge did right? Barbwire was gottlieb, right?
