Think you will need some convincing pics before any Ro Go will fetch this price.
Just one pinhead's opinion......

Certainly not a title too many would rehab to a high level, so good luck.

Right? Like it was a running joke between me and my wife after we played a Ro Go at TPF that someone would pay to have one HEP'ed.

Pics would be great, but I'll have to make sure not to open this at work if he ends up posting any lol...

Ro Go gets a "5.2" on ipdb. I went to check one out to buy once and the guy wanted 650. It was just about perfect condition. Never played it before. Played it once and walked away w/o an offer. And I like Vikings too.

Who can resist a game with significant enhancements and a topless girl on the playfield. Leaves you with little imagination.

With a $500+ price tag pretty much everyone on the planet can resist it. Even if you put a million dollars into the restoration it's not a million dollar pin to anyone but you.

Ro Go, probably one of the worst Bally EMs. There weren't too many good games from Bally that year, other than Delta Queen not too many come easily to mind. Gottlieb had a strong presence in the arcades around my parent's house. Why would anyone play Ro Go when they could play Top Card, released around the same time, with chances to win several replays with each play? My friends and I tried Ro Go once and quickly went back to playing anything else. GLWTS.

Would have to agree, not one of Bally's great years. I remember playing most of those 1974 games listed in IPDB, and with the possible exceptions of Amigo and Delta Queen, the other ones leave a lot to be desired, IMO.
