Game - for sale

For sale: Meteor

Added: 2020-05-13 05:22:10 UTC • Ended: May 26th, 2020
Condition: Partially restored (almost original)

Price

$ 3,500

Finish my project! Freshly stenciled and painted. New CPR playfield, plastics, and backglass. New drop targets and bumpers. New flippers and freshly rebuilt. Other New parts not listed. Machine will start a game. There is a short somewhere in the controlled lighting, 3 of 4 drop target banks will not reset, and pop bumper scores but will not pop. Probably quick and easy fixes for someone who knows what they are doing. Willing to entertain trades, plus or minus cash for newer games.

just to be honest, at this price all those issues need to be fixed. I would lower price or get a local tech to diagnose issues. Appears you did a fantastic job and looks amazing.

well said Woody. More pics should be added also.

#4 3 years ago

^agreed. I was excited to see a redone Meteor, but this game in "player's condition" regularly sells for under $1k. This game should be playing flawless

#5 3 years ago

Were these issues present before the playfield swap or after the swap? Reason for asking is that swap created issues tend to be more difficult to diagnose and repair than typical pinball repair stuff.

#6 3 years ago

Agree with comments above.
Sounds like PF swap caused most of issues like GI short, target resetting etc.

Would need all issues repaired.

#7 3 years ago

Additional pics of cabinet PF boards inside cabinet etc.
Any serious will be looking for detailed pics of this restoration.

Is game fully assembled?
Didn’t see flipper buttons in pic.

#8 3 years ago

Fair price for game based off condition "IF" ....all the issues are ironed out.

#9 3 years ago

Thank you all for reassuring me. The OP reached out to me as I posted a wanted ad and was looking for a Meteor. While there is a lot of money in his game, I felt there are way too many unresolved issues for that price. I usually don't like calling out peoples prices unless they are trying to pull a fast one and trying to screw someone new to the hobby, but this makes me feel better that everyone is in agreement.

#10 3 years ago

Currently trying to iron out the issues for this fella...it’s narrowed down to the playfield.
