Ok, I really don't want to disrespect the seller and wasn't going to post anything on this but after so many I felt I should give a little feedback to the seller...

A few hours ago I looked at the price and thought WOW that's really high! But, I wasn't deterred and looked as it anyway thinking this game better be perfect.

I only looked at two pictures ... the first picture was the inside of the cabinet which is obviously unpainted. Any restoration with a price tag in this range should have a fully restored and painted cabinet...yes the inside counts in this price range. I'm sure the seller will say that he wanted it to be original ... or course all the mods say other wise.

The second picture I looked at was the playfield underside. There is absolutely no reason for the coils to not have proper wrappers in this price range...and yes I do see that original AE 23-800 in the distance with the faded, barely visible ink on the wrapper.

That right there was funny, I don't care what side you're on! Gitrdone!

If you want to compare restoration pictures, I'll put mine against yours any day...

Please provide feedback on what it was in my post you disagreed with.

Granted I been on pinside less than a year, doesn't mean I was born less than a year ago; all it means is about a year ago I decided to help the community with skills I've developed over a lifetime.

Since you decide to jump on me...lets take another look at one of your pictures for clarification ... I'll ignore that it doesn't have a color DMD and look more closely at the coin door:

It's more like a good shop job than a total restoration. OP can ask whatever he wants, but methinks this doesn't move til a 20% off sale at minimum...

^^^^^^^You guys should pull out your TZs and compare them!!!!!

OP it would behoove you to show lots of detailed photos, especially when you can buy a really nice TZ for under $7k. If you have any potential buyers drive a long distance with $10k and they see anything less than perfect they WILL be walking away and probably very unhappy. No collector on here will buy a TZ in that price "range" without expecting the best. OP be specific on what has been done/replaced...down to the posts! Your not selling a $7k machine

Yep never done, Stern doesn't do it on LE's ... I don't do it on mine, no one does it

I'm not going to waste any more time in this thread, I do wish you the best of luck; and some free advice, some of us actually do restorations that are very close to perfect.

Please see my original comment about your coil labels, mods, etc ... I already posted what you would say

I still think dueling pics of both machines (pin guy and leaning tower) would be awesome - and keep your thread bumped. Let's get ready to rumble!!!

wow...say's it all

Is that why yours doesn't have coin mechs? Seriously, l liked the painted cabinet!

If you don't want comments, de-select the option to create an accompanying thread when placing your ad.

Seriously, you're asking big bucks for a questionable restore... you're going to get comments. You appear to have very thin skin, so I'd suggest sticking with ads only and not threads.

BTW my sample TZ has a nicer cab than the game you're offering, and it was on route for 6 years. Let me know when you flip the switch on your blue light special...

Bump for a great seller & a nice guy!

Edit: Wrong thread

please point them out ... never mind you already did. You do realize that most of those little marks are where parts go.

haha now thats just funny! Response of the year? probably!

I just picked up a nice TZ with a bunch of mods for $5300. Notice the spiral ramp and color dmd? I'm just sayin'.

You mean the Tron you listed for $11K like 4 times for a year?

You got $15K for it?

Riiiiight

How many times will you list this TZ?

All those people that called us nerds in highschool. Man if they could see us now!

Did you negotiate $4700 off because of the credit dot?

Cool story bro!

Cant wait to see you tell it again when you relist this game.

GLWTS, your avatar, self righteousness & overall dbaggery.

*Caution Positive Post Ahead*

Really beautiful machine, GLWS!

Thank you, I can also take a picture of the inside of my MMR (also painted black) and it looks very similar. So you are basically saying mine looks similar to a new MMR, so all I can say is thank you.

You know Bugsy, you'd be surprised. I've had wonderful offers on my TZ in the past. Before it was destroying boards.

Thatta boy Ant, dont take no shit ! Got to give him some credit he keeps coming back. lol.
