This game has been in my home gameroom since unboxing.
I am selling this machine to upgrade to the CE!

It has been cleaned and waxed regularly, balls changed frequently, and has brand new sleeves on all flippers for great flipper response!

Upgrades:

- Cliffy inlane drop protectors
- Titan flipper rubbers (glow on bottom, pink on top, will include spares)
- JJP shaker motor
- JJP airball protector for right ramp

See pictures and closeups for details. Questions? Need additional pics? Hit me up.

UPDATE: I have repaired the three areas showing clearcoat pooling and chipping using the @yelobird technique. They have been flattened, sealed with mylar, and topped with Titan playfield washers. The three photos at the end of the set show post-repair.

Game is upstairs but I will move it downstairs with my Escalera for easy ground-floor driveway loading.

Note: Not interested in trades at this time.

Quoted from Lermods:
Wow, more than $1000 off retail if you include shipping/tax. A lot of game for this price. Someone will be very happy/lucky.

Plus the shaker!

Quoted from Lermods:
the issues are pretty minor. If you have pooling, do what yelobird suggested with the iron, works perfectly, then add a neoprene washer. If you have a chip, that's another issue. What I see in the pics on this game are easily fixable.

Full disclosure: The right sling has pooling that has not chipped. Also the left rubber. The star post on the left sling does have chipping around it.
All of this is in the photos as closeup and clear as I could get.

I have some Titan playfield washers for covering and containing this. Soft washers were quite successful at making this a non-issue on my POTC.

Per JJP's recommendation, I have not removed any posts yet but will gladly install the washers for the buyer on request.

Quoted from PtownPin:
so JJP wouldn't send you a new play field? I'm surprised since u have actual chipping

Well, this was a discussion I was planning to have with the buyer in person...but since this thread has gone all clearcoatgate on me...

My distributor has requested one on my behalf, but I do not have it in-hand. Because I don't have it in hand, I don't want to promise it as a part of the sale. If I do indeed get a replacement I will make sure the buyer gets it.

Quoted from PtownPin:
Sorry wasn't trying to create drama...game is great as is was just wondering...

You're fine, I knew it would come up eventually (and you didn't start it!)

Quoted from Yelobird:
With the nicest seller you could find probably the only negative to this game sale would be the the challenge of topping his Wife’s high scores on this game.

You are too kind. . I relayed your comments to Susan who was very amused and proud.

Her GC of 4.3 still stands and she blew out my 2.9 #1 score the other night with a 3.8.

Quoted from bigd1979:
Many people are waiting on ce and le at the moment. Plus i think many are worried about the clear . They really sldnt worry to much ..some silicon washers and it sld be good to go for a long time. At 6500 with shaker its a nice deal and a lot of pin for the price especially for a local..

I do have the new Titan playfield washers and will include or install them at the buyer’s option.

I performed the Yelobird "playfield iron" technique tonight on the three areas showing pooling (the two slings and the left bumper.)

The areas were flattened with the iron, which worked amazingly, then sealed with mylar rings from @vireland. Finally, Titan playfield washers were put on top.
