Hey guys. I'm interested in selling my GottlieDevils Dare machine. I hate to sell it...but you know how that goes. It's been in a climate controlled storage unit for the last 5 years. When I had it set up at my old house, it played really good. A couple of the score displays were a little sketchy (digits missing here and there). And the game sounds started to not work once and a while. The machine is complete. No missing parts. I have the original manual as well. I'm going to get it out of storage this weekend and get some pics of it and post them here. I have to get rid of my storage unit and there is no room for it where I'm staying. I'm not a pinball collector. This game has sentimental value to me, so I'd rather sell it here to someone who would appreciate it and repair it correctly. Honestly I'm not sure of the value of this machine. I started looking around. Maybe $1000? Please tell me if I'm completely off on that number. I'm sure you guys know what it's worth according to the pictures. I'm just wanting to see if anybody here is interested. I'm in South Florida, north of West Palm Beach. Looking to accept the best offer I get. Thanks for your consideration guys. Sorry no pics yet. I just want to see if there's any interest here. Any questions, please let me know. Thanks again.

It's in a commercial storage facility. They spray for insects regularly. I'll check for termites when I take the pictures. I never see any bugs there. Thanks for the heads up though. Thanks for the responses so far.

I'm 80% sure I did. I'm going to check it out this Saturday and get pics of the interior and exterior. Gonna try to get it out of storage and bring it to my house and plug it in.

I know....80% sure, haha, at least I'm honest. Sorry guys. I didn't get to my storage unit like I wanted to this past Saturday. I'm trying to borrow a trailer and bring my DD home so I can take good pictures and inspect everything. I did play the game for two years when I bought it, and my family owned one back in the 80's. My Devils Dare is the model with the sound/music and the 'robot' voice. I didn't perform any mods like the ground mods when I bought it. I just played it for a while. Then the voice started going in and out, the music too. I remember reading that these machines had a lot of connector pin problems as well. I never had a chance to check/clean the connector pins or diagnose the problem before putting it in storage. Hopefully it is an easy fix. I thought I remember seeing the sound module 'newer replacement style' on eBay when the sound was getting sketchy, could still be available? I need to check it first. Gonna get some pics of the game in storage today so you guys can see it. Then bring it home later this week. Thanks for the interst guys and info so far. Pics are coming, I promise.

Ok. I got some pics. I have more to upload. Sorry about any reflection. I'll post the rest of the pics later tonight. No bugs in sight when I checked the machine. My storage place is super clean and air conditioned.

Thanks to the guys that checked my pics so far. I appreciate the pricing info. Rollinover...I'm feelin the love. I was hoping to, at the least, get $1000.00 for it. It's a little rough, I agree, but it's complete. No parts are missing or have been taken off. If I recall there is a target or two that are broken, but you can still hit the nub with a good shot and it'll drop. No rot or water damage. I took the pics today as it was in my storage unit. I didn't get a chance to vaccum it out or clean it up. I know you guys are wanting to see in the top, but I need to get the machine out to get some pics. If you guys want certain pictures please let me know. Again, I'm on the east coast of Florida. (The treasure coast). North of West Palm Beach. Thanks again for looking! Apologize for duplicate pics I just posted. I'm at work.

Question. If I get it back to my house. Do I need to change/inspect some components before I plug it in? It's been about 6 years since it's been played. I just don't want to fry any boards or components because of grounding issues or certain things that should've been cleaned before power applied. Thanks for any info.

Lol. That's awesome!

Pic of the side graphics. Forgot to post.

I appreciate your recommendation. In my original post I stated I thought it may be worth $1000 but wasn't sure. After I posted my first set of pics, you guys threw out some pricing information. Thanks to everybody who responded. When I posted my second set of pictures, I stated in that post that at the least I was hoping to get $1000.00 for it. So Best offer starting at $1000 would take her home. Again, I'm really torn selling this machine. I grew up with a Devils Dare and Gorgar in my family's home. That's why I bought this one. And I love playing it. As you guys know, crap happens and I had to put a lot of my belongings in storage. I need to get rid of my storage unit now. Tired of paying every month. Here's the kicker...I've been loving the forum here. Been reading a lot of the restoration posts and enjoying them. Been reading a lot about my DD again and my love for my machine is coming back. This forum is getting my blood flowing for pinball again, haha. If someone jumps on it soon I'll sell it, but if I get it back to my girlfriends house, clean her up, order me a rubber kit and throw it on, perf the ground mods and replace the capacitor and get her fired up, and get a chance to play it again......then it just may be restoration time. So I apologize for not putting up a price. Honestly I thought someone would have pm'd me already with an offer. There doesn't seem to be a lot of these around. And again, thanks to everybody who responded to my post so far. This is an awesome forum and people here are very helpful. I know I need to get some pictures of the inside of the head on here. I'm afraid to damage the back glass graphics any more by me doing something stupid. Next shot is Saturday for me getting some pics of the head. Sorry for the wait. Any tips on how I can protect the back glass graphics after I remove it will be greatly appreciated. Thanks again guys. Once more taking best offer starting at $1000.00

Naw. Our game room was actually pretty nice. The black walls were a little creepy though. Also didn't know what that big upside down star painted in red
was on the ceiling either. Lol

Ok. Not looking like I'm going to have the room to move it into my girlfriends house. So I'm dropping the price to $800.00 Local pickup only. This could be a nice Christmas gift for someone here.

Appreciate everyone's replies. Again, this game is located on the east coast of Florida (the Treasure Coast) North of West Palm Beach. It needs a good home. Btw, girlfriends house is 10 min from my storage unit. I've been living with her for 5 years. I've already packed her garage, filled her spare room, and half of her bedroom with my stuff. Lol. I literally have no room to put this game. Otherwise I would keep it and restore it. Which may end up happening if no one wants to buy. For the people that haven't played Devils Dare, it's a ton of fun to play. Very challenging to get the multiball. Cool sound/music and voice. Just needs a little work to be a daily player. Even with the worn playfield, super fun to play.

This is my last price drop. $700.00 is my rock bottom. I'm feeling this is a fair price for buyer and seller. I can't figure out how to change my post title so I can put the price in it.

Cool. Thanks.

Hey guys. Thanks for all your help and information. I had to let it go for $549.00 Lower than I wanted but went to a good guy. We did plug it in and it played. No sound like I remembered though. Merry Christmas guys. I'm gonna keep reading on this forum. I got my mind on a Metallica LE sometime in my future. Gonna start saving a little each month.

Thanks guys.
