Today I picked up (2) Funhouse Machines, (1) Eight Ball Deluxe, and (1) Galaga Arcade Machine. Eight Ball and the Galaga are in very bad shape. Of the (2) Funhouse Machines 1 is in better shape then the other but both are in poor shape. I'm listing it here because to the right person this might something right up their alley. Not really sure what they are worth but ultimately I would like to have a decent working machine. I don't mind starting up a restoration project, just wanted to get a feel if someone might want to trade.

Thanks

Jon

I've never said this before, but I have to now: Shame you're so far away. I'd jump on that 8 Ball in a heartbeat (and perhaps even do another Funhouse just for kicks!). But when the shipping is more than the machine is worth, that sucks. Good luck...and if you have any ideas for getting it to Jersey cheap, let me know!

PS - I actually think this is legit. Who the hell would sell such crap with pictures of how rough they are if it wasn't real? Usually, you get pictures from Treasure cove with $3500 price tags on 8k machines.

seems legit. Look at the bottom of the cab on the right fun house. Falling right out. Might be decent for parts. Full resto if you have tons of free time talent and money.

The funhouse on the left has enough plastic ramp and rudy parts to be worth over $100. While it does look like water residue on the platfield the back box light boards look clean so on pick up if you see boards inside Ding Ding Ding you win. The Displays are there.

No brainer for $100.

It's Legit. I wasn't sure what pricing to put so I low balled it.

And yes they are in bad shape. Was thinking it might be worth something to the right person.

Well, not for $3700. He just priced himself out of any hope of selling.

OP - none of these machines, IMHO, are worth more than several hundred dollars. As some have said, they may only be good for parts, and you'd have to post more detailed pics of the inside of cabinets, backboxes, the boards, underside of the playfield, etc.

I'd really love to fix that 8 ball if it only cost be a couple hundred bucks. But it won't.

Lol, Yea they have been sitting in a old shop for a while. I was hoping to piece part and get 1 working machine. The 8 ball and arcade are trash, I originally didn't want them but he gave them to me.

I did pickup these Neon bar signs.

No, these games are trash. They are parts. But they are good parts.

Who wants to double their money? Drop them in my front lawn (even if its raining) and I will hand you $200.

I have a Funhouse project sitting in pieces and would love to have these available.

Just for shits and giggles, take a bunch of pictures of the insides of those machines...the circuit boards in the back boxes as well. I'm not convinced these are just parts. I swear I could bring them back. I'm a confident f**ker.

Pics of the better playfield, looks like this one has mylar.

He lives in Lake Charles, machines could have been damaged in Hurricane Rita which was actually a stronger storm than Katrina (and knocked out power in Lake Charles for weeks).

I'm glad to see Lake Charles has another person with games, albeit in trashed shape. It is the pinball desert in Lake Charles, it's basically me, Jodester and a Pinsider named Speed.

What's your price on the better FH? I've got a stock pile of parts looking for the right machine. Quite a long drive but for the right price I may be tempted for the trip.

There are enough parts to get one good machine out of the pair. The cabinet on 1 is good minus some droop on the underside. The boards look ok with only one hack. Both sound boards need work. One of the playfields still has the mylar and the inserts on the clock are only minimally raised. Only a bit of wear near one pop bumper. It looks like the plastics are all there on both and will probably look good after a cleanup.

Both machines do power on but keep popping fuses.

The boards on that EBD look good if somebody was in the market.

The project would be a bit more than I want to bite off right now. If I didn't already order a TWD pro and not tell my wife, I would have tried to pick up the pair. At least I will have my machines in the outdoor man cave if she kicks me out.

Why aren't these sold yet? I'd buy the 3 for 3700 if they were close enough to pick up, but the shipping would kill it. A little elbow grease and a trunkload of magic erasers will get them looking decent again!

If a pinsider can get these to CT I will take them. Then one can go at cost to the pinsider getting them here and I will fix it for free with owner just covering parts costs. I have repaired far worse than these with great results. If seller had more reputation on pinside I'd already have wired him money.

Either way bump and wish you were closer.
