I'm ready to sell my Mousin' Around. I've had it about a couple years now. It was pretty rough when I got it, but I fixed it up and it plays great, even with a few parts missing. It's a fun game, but I'm ready to swap it with something else. Asking $2,500, or as a trade towards a Taxi. I might consider other games, but I have my eyes fixed on Taxi right now!

The good:
Rebuilt flippers when I first got it. All shots, including the mouse hole, can still be made consistently.
Replaced most parts of the motorized target bank, including the motor itself and the plastic harness and channel.
Center ramp is a new repro from JodyG.
Other ramps are in pretty good shape. They have some small cracks but no missing pieces.
The translite is relatively new and in great shape.
I have installed the new 5.0 ROMs by Soren.
The battery holder is not mounted on the CPU board.
Has a Rottendog power supply board and PinLED displays.
Manual and some other goodies I bought for the game, but never needed to use are included.
The bad:
Some missing parts. The center ramp switch bracket is missing and so I've replace it with an MRS placed at the end of the ramp. It still functions exactly the same, it just triggers as the ball exits the ramp rather than as it enters the ramp. The ball stopper, plastic cover, and plastic support piece for the end of the center ramp is also missing (Compare it to the end of the left ramp, which has all those parts), but this doesn't cause any gameplay issues.
Speaker hum is pretty loud. Not super noticeable during gameplay, but still a problem. May be caused by the Rottendog power supply board.
Left display has all comma segments locked on. I've previously traced the issue back the U41 chip in this thread: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/system-11-all-comma-segments-lit-on-left-display-pinled I never bothered fixing it as I'm not familiar with board work and haven't been bothered too much by the issue.
Both mouse trap locks are cracked, but fully functional. I've attempted to repair both with Scigrip 3. One held, and one didn't, but again, they still function without issues.
Someone who previously owned this game did an awful job slapping mylar all over the playfield. It's ugly, but doesn't affect gameplay much.
Lots of cosmetic issues. Playfield wear isn't too bad, but is at its worst at the top above the star lanes. Cabinet is very faded, especially on the right side, and there's some tape damage on the sides of the head. Cabinet artwork is tearing around the edges.
Rarely (And I mean really rarely) the right flipper will get stuck in the up position. Pressing the button again (or turning off the game) will cause it to drop back down. I have no idea what the cause of the issue is since it's so rare and it doesn't seem to be mechanical (If it was the mech jamming up turning the game off wouldn't drop it).
