Price

$ 950

Bally Skateball for sale. Includes a spare populated playfield (note extra playfield plastics in the bag in front of the playfield).

The backglass looks perfect, I don't see any imperfections.

The cabinet is in nice shape.

The playfield is rough, wear in the usual spots. This is an excellent candidate for a playfield swap. I think CPR is doing a run of these playfields.

The spare playfield has the paint flaking off. But the parts are in good shape, not a rusty mess. Ideal for a playfield swap because you would have a spare playfield to reference where parts go and have a bunch of spare parts.


This is a project machine that I picked up with hopes of restoring it. But I have too many projects, so it is time for this great title to go to a home where it will be enjoyed.


I also have a very nice Flash Gordon that is fully working that I am planning on selling if you want to do a group buy. Photos should be up soon.

Located in Bellefonte, PA 16823

$950 which includes the spare playfield.

All offers are welcome and encouraged.

Following up on questions by several people.

I don't know the functionality of the pin. I bought it in the condition that you see. The guy who I bought it from used to service a pinball route and bought it from his boss when they were phasing out pins in the 1990's. He played the pin for many years and said it worked when he put it into storage. I bought from his storage space. It has been in storage for ~5 years. The backglass has been in the pin the entire time and still looks great, I hope that give a good idea of how nice the storage space was to the pin.

The MPU had the battery cut off before I purchased it. I see battery leak damage around the board edges, but nothing beyond what I normally see on these early Bally SS pins. This looks like a very serviceable MPU.

All of the other boards and displays look good. My experience is these Bally boards and displays hold up great over time and normally only need the capacitors changed and often the original capacitors still work fine.

I see no water damage or rodent infestation signs. The biggest issue is a lot of honest wear on the playfield from the pin being played.

Still Available.

Lots of messages, but no one has committed yet.

All offers are welcome and encourage.

I am happy to work with a shipper, though as always I would prefer that you see it in person before you buy.
