FS: Terminator 2 -- FULL LED! -- SOLD

Check out my Market ad at http://pinside.com/pinball/market/ad/12941

Up for sale is my Terminator 2 pinball. It is unshopped but clean. Has some minor playfield wear on the playfield. (The pictures can describe this more accurately.) Rubbers (and potentially flipper bats) would need replaced as part of a normal shop job, but the machine works great and shouldn't need anything too out of the ordinary as far as a shop job. Some minor cabinet wear as well. Pictures are available at the link below. It has a full CoinTaker LED kit (flashers and all!) installed! *Pending sale on this.*

Pictures are up at http://s1314.photobucket.com/user/dmklunk/library/Terminator%202%20pics

Thanks!

Domestic or reimport? Three chute coin door or two?

I believe it is a reimport from Germany. It has a three chute coin door with Deutschmark slots. The game is currently on Free Play.

Obviously it is converted for 120V, and it is a very solid game.

So this is the one that was on Craigslist for $1400? Has some flipper wear, too, I presume?

Looks pretty rough to be honest, I dont see how you can have that much planking on the playfield and still stay its in "nice shape"

No, this isn't the one that was on Craigslist. In fact, I think that one is still there. But thanks for being quick to pass judgment.

No, not really any flipper wear on mine.

Yes sir. That's the way it goes with just about every FS thread on Pinside. Especially if you're not popular around here. Oh well, I'm just trying to sell a game!

Not sure that's planking as much as ball swirl. But I will call it "decent shape".

Alright, price drop! I want to move this along as I found another machine I want and I'm out of room. Full Cointaker LED kit is now INSTALLED (flashers, backbox, GI, controlled, and all!). Would like this gone soon.

$1950 cash and carry.

Come and get it!

Hey Derek,

I commend you on the pics. You honestly showed the bad spots as you should being an honest seller.

I do have to mention though....your text description varies from the pics. Not saying it's intentional or anything like that. You gave your honest impression regarding the games condition.

There is a lot.....lets call it something "undetermined" on they playfield. Weather it's swirl marks, some wear, dirt/dust etc....

Seems to be some insert wear almost everywhere. Not terrible if corrected now, but it's there. Cab is pretty much as you described it.

Lastly and please don't take this as bashing you or your game (at least you have one)... there does seem to be some flipper wear. At least the rubbers anyways.flipper wear-991.jpg

Thanks for the input, Rob. I edited the original post to refer toward the pictures. A picture's worth a thousand words -- everything is subjective and I completely get that everyone looks at it differently. I think the pictures turned out nicely, so hopefully potential buyers will take a look at the pictures and see for themselves.

Thanks again!

That to me is absolutely irrelevant. Is the game in good condition or not? That is the important question.

Will do but I have to wait till tomorrow. Medical procedure done today is kicking my ass.

The re-import thing is a big minus to me. Just being honest....I didn't see it was not a pure US till now. Not sure how many other people feel the same as I do but for me it's a big deal.

I have a reimport, plays great with no power issues. Id rather have my reimport than a trashed router from the states. I happen to like the DM coinslot inserts as they add a interesting "what does that mean" from most non-pinheads.

Wasn't offering an opinion on which is better. Simply trying to glean whether this was the same machine I subsequently discussed in my next post.

No problem here. Just my own personal preference. I've owned both and the problems are pretty much the same as any other machine. They all break down at one time or another. I just prefer mine with original wiring from the get go and no mods or different doors. I'd never knock another collectors pin just because it's a re import....I'd just play the hell out of it.

EDIT: Perhaps I should not have called it a big minus. Poor choice of words on my part. I own it!

Agree with the above - I think you either need to put in some sweat equity, or lower to around $1300-1500.

No, thanks.
I don't need to sell this right away, but at the same time I just don't have time to work on it right now. I'll let it listed here and if someone wants it they can make me an offer and I'll consider it. If it doesn't sell, I'll hang on to it for a while, at least until I get a chance to work on it!

Thanks for bumping this up..!

I thought Magic Eraser could cause some problems, especially if applying too much pressure.

Please elaborate.... I use Magic Eraser on cabs with some simple green. I've also used them (very carefully) on playfields with Novus to clean only.

What part of using ME is bad? (when used correctly)?

Magic Eraser is abrasive. It's going to remove dirt, along with clearcoat. On a cabinet, it's going to remove some original art along with the art.

It has its uses, don't get me wrong, but I wouldn't use it much on a factory CC'd playfield.

Also, sorry to the OP, but $1950's pretty steep for this. Last couple I saw on Pinside sold around $1600 in nicer shape but without LEDs.

Bear in mind, that's on Pinside.

Gottcha...They are abrasive to a degree...but really much less than paper towel. I always use them with caution.

You would be really surprised how abrasive some paper towel can be.
