Fish Tales, Williams 1992
Game info: http://www.ipdb.org/machine.cgi?id=861

I'll try and make this short but that's not likely. Lol. I'm asking $2800 firm. No shipping. Cash only.
This machine plays perfectly. I have personally put 25-30(conservative) hours into this pin, getting it in the best possible condition. This is a list of what I have done. I will no doubt leave some things out so if you have a question please ask. I have a couple parts still on order. They are expected to arrive wednesday and I will install them on wednesday. They are a new set of chrome legs and the boat ramp flap decal. I also have the original goodie bag that came with this machine new. The original "Williams" envelope with Manual, schematics, extra sling plastics, key fob , torx key, bulb sockets and some hardwhare.

Here are lots of pics

Backbox and lower cabinet:
I spent a lot of time cleaning and detailing the cabinet. Its extremely clean. All the connectors and wiring harness have been cleaned and look great. No yellow connectors or dirty wires. All wire clamps are clean and white. Boards in the lower cabinet have all been removed, cleaned and solder reflowed where needed on all connector pins.
The cabinet decals are in good shape. There is some fading on the right side lower cabinet. The front and left look great.
-Flipper buttons are new.
-Knocker has new sleeves, plungers and rubber grommet stop.
-Legs have plastic cabinet protectors.
-As I stated above, new legs are on order and will be installed.

Electronics:
-All the boards have been removed and cleaned.
-All the pins for the connectors have been reflowed
-The boards have been tested and work 100%
-Batteries are new.
-Fuses are all the correct value.
-Every wire, wire harness, connector and wire clamp has been cleaned.
-I rebuilt the high voltage section of the DMD controller board. The board was working fine, it was a preventive measure.
-There are no hacks on this entire pinball machine. It is as it was when it left the factory.

Under Playfield:
-All assemblys have been disassembled, cleaned and polished.
-All assemblys have new sleeves, springs, plungers, rubber grommets and stops.
-Most of the inserts have color matched LED's.
-Pop bumpers were completely rebuilt with all new parts, springs, spoons, skirts, housings, etc.
-All coils were resoldered as preventive maintenance.
-Great care was taken in adjusting all the switches. The pop bumpers pop and the sling shots sling just the way they should.
- Underside is clean, clean, clean.

Fish topper is in excellent condition and works perfectly. It has also been disassembled and cleaned.
This is a solid machine in fantastic condition.
I'm sure there's more but you're probably tired of reading.

evening bump

Thanks Dan. I appreciate the vote of confidence. We're going to work out the details tomorrow so there's still time to come play it. Once we strike a deal it gets unplugged and covered up.

Will do. I was wondering how to fix that. Thanks.

Looks like Benepinballs is the winner!!!!! Worked out the details today. Sale is in the process.
Next up is a super sweet JP. Coming soon!

I am shipping it. I was not dead set against shipping. More like picky who i shipped to or dealt with cross country. Ive blindly sent my money to my fair share of people in this hobby. Why? Reputation.
The pinball community is small. You burn one person and it will follow you. When I can google your name and "pinball" and come up with 25 hits spanning 10 years all saying "good guy alert" or "deal with confidence" or "great guy to deal with" then I will put my trust in you. I will deposit your check and not worry about you stopping payment. I will take your paypal payment without worrying its from a stolen account. etc,etc,etc. What I was trying to avoid was getting into a sale with "pnblfelon" with 110 karma and a name thats never come across the hobby. Then worrying about my $2800 for the next two weeks . Hope that makes sense. It does in my head and thats the important part. I dont consider myself a pin flipper. Some may. I buy pins and put an awful lot of work into them and sell them. I dont sell alot. A couple a month. Losing $2800 would crush me. Ever careful of the scams, never been scammed yet. Knock on wood.
