Cirqus Voltaire
Bally, 1997For Sale: An excellent condition Cirqus Voltaire that I bought new in box in January 1998. The machine receives light use in-home and in perfect working condition.
Asking: $8,500. Located in the Milwaukee area. I prefer to avoid shipping if possible, but it could be arranged.

Quoted from teekee:This is without a doubt a great deal! This will sell quick...
Put your pom poms away, he posted this 7 months ago... still here...
Quoted from tatman9999:Will sell fast ,looks to have no ghosting .
Correct - no ghosting. All inserts are perfect.
Nice looking machine and good luck with the sale. I find it hard to believe there are any CV's out there with no ghosting. Just seems to be a nature of the beast with this machine. Even this machine has some slight ghosting at the bottom of the "I" insert for CIRQUS and bottom of the Ring1 insert.

well if that is the case the HEP one that sold last week for 10K was highway robbery (which it probably was).
Great deal? - not so sure about that
Quoted from BoJo:Even this machine has some slight ghosting at the bottom of the "I" insert for CIRQUS and bottom of the Ring1 insert.
Well crap, I had never even noticed this before. And now I cannot un-see it.
Quoted from Vesper:Well crap, I had never even noticed this before. And now I cannot un-see it.
SELL IT TO SPIDEY!!! He can't even see what machine it is!!! 
Quoted from Spidey171:Nice CP!! Really wish I could afford it. GLWS
Quoted from MMforever:I did not know there was hook for bar violating , on HUO weird

Williams pre-installed the brackets for coin-door security bars on the last few titles that they made. It's no biggie.
Quoted from Vesper:Well crap, I had never even noticed this before. And now I cannot un-see it.
Don't sweat it. I have yet to see any CV in existence that doesn't have *some* ghosting in some of the inserts. Yours is way better than normal.
Sweet looking pin for sure! Good luck with the sale of this beauty.
Quoted from Skypilot:I think you will miss it
I can back this one up. I desperately miss mine, have since soon after I sold it (ok, that was 8 or 9 years ago). Can't afford to replace it though.

I owned a CV previously, sold it, missed it, bought a HUO version back (for more than this one is listed for). I really enjoy CV a lot.

You need one more Jpop pin! They would look sexy next to each other. 
Quoted from ToddSonOfOdin:Awesome game, but if the HEP ones sat @ 10k this is gonna take awhile...
Guess it took 9 hours.....lol
Quoted from smassa:Guess it took 9 hours.....lol
Didn't see that coming. Oh well, wasn't my money.
Congrats to Vesper and the new owner.
Quoted from ToddSonOfOdin:Didn't see that coming. Oh well, wasn't my money.
If that's your attitude, why did you feel the need to chime in in the first place?
Quoted from Vesper:Buyer bailed (finances). Back up for sale!
Wow, what a loser. How do you make an offer then a few minutes later say "I don't have the money"?
Quoted from RobT:Wow, what a loser. How do you make an offer then a few minutes later say "I don't have the money"?
His wife came home from work? 
Quoted from iceman44:That's a great looking CV and if someone missed out on the HEP at 10k they should look at this one.....I would have jumped on that Hep if I didn't so many freaking pins in queue....
I agree -- it is a very nice game. But its far from HEP quality. Far from cosmetically perfect.
Quoted from Chippewa-Pin:His wife came home from work?
You beat me to the wife comment.
Quoted from kapper:I agree -- it is a very nice game. But its far from HEP quality. Far from cosmetically perfect.
HEP games are beautiful, but they are reproduction/re-manufactured games. Personal preference would be an original, well cared for HUO.
Quoted from RobT:Wow, what a loser. How do you make an offer then a few minutes later say "I don't have the money"?
I recall someone offering 12k for mine on here a while back and when i agreed they couldn't commit. Rob knows this story. Pinsider remains nameless, but Rob can back me up.

Not only can I back you up, I *could* name the Pinsider!

Wow. Good eye, next time I diamond shop I want you there
Quoted from shlockdoc:Wow. Good eye, next time I diamond shop I want you there
Sounds good. It helps I owned a CV myself and tend to know where to look. I only mentioned the ones that stood out, but if you look at the bottom of the Cirqus inserts you will see some slight ghosting on all of them. There is also some on the bottom of the lock and jackpot inserts. Even with the minor ghosting it's still one of the nicest CV PF's I have ever seen. If I was looking for a CV this would be the one to get. HEP's are nice but nothing beats a well cared for HUO example.
It comes with the lockbar. I have it in a box for mine. Just left the mounting brackets in rather than plug them. Little ghosting also on the 2nd from right diamond below the RM head.
Good looking CV do not see any reason this could not fetch 7500-8000.
