Game - for sale

For sale: Black Hole (Gottlieb, 1981)

Added: 2016-06-08 20:19:59 UTC • Ended: June 11th, 2016
Condition: Used - shows wear but 100% working and clean

Price

$ 1,500

Up for sale is my Black Hole. As the photos show this is more than and players game but not CQ. It is very clean and would be a nice addition to any game room.

The pluses:

- Everything works - including a new(OEM) and hard to find sound chip.
- It has had ground mods done
- Cabinet in nice condition although I would respray the black surround on the back box if I was going to keep it
- It is very clean inside and out - underside of play fields look NIB!
- Back glass in excellent condition

The minuses:
- The back box motor works but is noisy - its a cheap replacement but I am out of time.
- The main play field has had some very minor touch-up - not by me - but worth disclosing.
- the acorn nuts on the upper play field are white nylon and I think OEM calls for SS. These are readily available.

Feel free to PM me with questions. If in the area, feel free to come try it - no worries if you don't buy it.

I can't really tell you much else as I have hardly played it. Reason for selling is two fold:

- I much prefer more modern games - will be putting my Genie up for sale soon - as soon as I get the energy to clean and photograph it

- I am out of room and games are spilling over into living space which has made me unpopular in my household

What's the new sound chip?

#3 7 years ago

it is a replacement for the original chip which was not working. I believe it is called a Votrax chip.

Original posting clarified to reflect that this is a new(OEM) chip

Thanks TimTim - as I was cleaning it for sale I snuck in a few games as thought - gee - I'd like to keep that. Then I went back upstairs and faced reality - so it stays for sale

Always hard to let go... But you can always get one back!

There is no going back Have a sale commitment via "Mr. Pinball' of all places but as the great Yogi Berra said - "It's not over till it's over" so I will keep entertaining offers until the check arrives and clears. And yes, I had a friend who recently sold a car and received a bankers check that the bank looked at; said was fine; deposited; only to find out 10 days later that it was a counterfeit - unbelievable!!

great price! Not surprised it sold fast

#10 7 years ago

thanks - not sold til the fat lady sings ---- this is still an active sale as the prospective buyer is an unknown - non-Pinsider - entity!

Interested, but I'm in SoCal. Let me know if it is still available.
