hi guys im looking to buy a BDS the seller tell me that the mystic ball was not working right,that was "moving by it self"(?) but that he set it to off on the the settings because it wasent working right,what should i ask about this issue to know if its a little fix of a big deal.
also any tips on to what to look when buying this title
thanks!
Quoted from LTG:Mist ball.
Optos in the pocket on either side or across the playfield aren't working.

Look at over all condition. And price. Hard to clean areas clean or dirty ? Boards in the head look good or hacked to death and battery damage on cpu ?
Be fair in your estimation too. Don't expect a $5K game for $1K.
LTG : )
thank you for your tips!so you dont think that its a big deal?the machine seems clean but i need more pictures i saw a video and the flippers seems to be strong.if the price its good how much of a deal breaker its it?
what happen when you disable the myst ball from settings?,even that you dont have such a cool feature you can still play for a bit untill you have it fixed?the mist multiball starts like if you hitted the mystic ball?
Quoted from NPO:OP, dont buy one without mist working unless you like figuring things out and tinkering. The circuit is stout WHEN it is working, but when it is not, it can be quite trying to determine what is wrong. There are some decent YT videos that walk you through it (very big overview, not nitty gritty details), and there are probably 100s of posts about it in the owners thread here on Pinside.
It is an essential part of the game, similar to the hand on Johnny Mnemonic. Without it working, the game is 60% less fun. Buy one that works from the beginning. You'll keep more of your hair in the long run.
an eye opener right there...
