I've got a chance to get a high speed locally for $1350. I went and checked it out yesterday and the sound wasn't working (I think just a loose wire, we were able to get the speakers to make some noise by shifting around some cables behind the coin door) and the pop bumpers weren't working either. He said both were working when he got the game in a few weeks ago, so maybe a fuse or something (there was 1 blown fuse that I noticed).

The backglass is pretty much trash, it's cracked and taped together in the bottom right. Displays seem good and the lights look good as well. PF is mylar'd and in good condition. Unshopped, obviously, PF glass needs replaced.

He had it marked at $1900 originally and took it down to $1700 and then told me his best price is $1350 so I have some room to get it up and running correctly. Thoughts on if I should pick it up or if I should just wait for a shopped game to shop up on here for $1800? Currently have 1x EM Royal Flush and 1x DE MNF -- I was thinking I would like a 2000s+ game next, but it's hard for me to say no to a good deal, so I'm thinking about adding this and then having my first real project pin to take on. Let me know what you think.

Thanks for the honesty rather than just encouraging me to join the owner's club! I told him I'll hold off for now and keep my eyes on his upcoming listings. It didn't really fit with my plans for pin 3 anyways, I want a newer machine next. At some point I'll probably consider trading MNF for something else from the magical late 80s early 90s era.
