Found one for 2500, good condition. Is it worth that? I don’t have pictures going to go take some tomorrow.

#2 6 years ago

Sounds cheap.

#3 6 years ago

Yes 2500 is a great deal....even if its a little rough its still a good deal.

#4 6 years ago

A steal...

It's 2018, don;t go tomorrow, head there immediately unless it's a scam. Congos go for way more these days.

#6 6 years ago

It's also a very fun game..

#7 6 years ago

Agreed, you should be in your car already.

#10 6 years ago

Another pin I should have never sold. Hope your not still reading this thread and you're on your way to go snag that deal!

#11 6 years ago

funny how its always the people who dont know if its a steal or not that stumble upon deals like this..lol

#12 6 years ago

I would drive probably over 500 miles to get one in decent shape for that price no doubt about it, amazing game!

#13 6 years ago

You don't even need to see it (almost) to say yes here

#14 6 years ago

go now!

#15 6 years ago

Yeah, this almost feels trollish. That’s a crazy low asking price for this game.
Just make sure the volcano ramp isn’t blown out. That is one part that you will have to kill a unicorn to find NOS.

I picked it up it just needs a little dusting. Maybe some bulb replacement, may do LEDs. Clean as a whistle, guy bought it 15 years ago and played it 6 times, couldn’t figure out how to set it on free play.

No unicorn was harmed.

Perfect except by leg posts. I’ll pull it out and take a picture tomorrow.

Thanks....another step toward a TSPP.

Oh yeah clean this thing up, have fun with it, and out the door. Hole's a little chewed but that's the price of business; aint bad.

#23 6 years ago

Nice pickup.... worth well north of 2500 on the open market...

#24 6 years ago

Owned it for 15 years and only played it 6 times??? Sayyy whaaaaaat?

Nice haul!!

#25 6 years ago

Balaraform Nice pickup! I was second in line. Bring it to SFGE in June and set it on freeplay. If you ever decide to sell it let me know as I live in Atlanta. If you really want a TSPP let me know and I'll ask around the Atlanta area for you, even if you decide to keep the Congo.

#26 6 years ago

Nice score, before I got my Firepower, batteries died and when he turned it on to play a game it started in diagnostic mode, so he figured it was time to move it out rather that getting it repaired.

Yeah that’s what I said, talkedto the guy for 20 min, part of an estate sale. Said he bought it his wife fell and they never finished the game room.

I am going to definitely try, I need to clean it and wax it. Make a few adjustments, but should be able to do that before SFGE. TSPP is ultimate for me so if someone wants to trade I definitely would.
