There were two separate Triple Plays listed on craigslist in the past month in Illinois. $1900 and $1500. I have a James Bond but it would take a stupid amount of cash to rip it away from me, it was my first and remains one of my favorites really great unique game. Good luck in the search.

Just looked up the triple play it is still listed under Peoria and Springfield Illinois craigslist. $1950 might be worth trying.

Just drove 5 hours to see the one from ebay JUNK !!!! Bottom of the cabinet was gone and also had major errors.

Yet his description read "This machine has been completely shopped. The circuit boards have been tested and are working 100%. The play field is in great shape with no worn spots. The back glass has no defects. I would rate the overall condition a 9 with some scratches on the cabinet."

Major errors doesn't sound like working 100% to me. What was his asking price, something like $1200? Did he budge on his price at all with issues like that?

His reply was (i didn't know it was messed up , i guess i wont sell it then)
i wouldnt have paid more than 250-300 MAX for it and that would have been to salvage parts for my gas and time.
Im going down see Dan from main street amusements in Lafayette, to pick up a triple play today.

One of those CL ads in Chicago was mine. Sold it in less than 24 hours.

i great thanks to dan @ main Street Amusements for selling me his!! (triple play)
long story short, after 8 hours total on the road in two states to get this game for a xmas present for a customer.
i had to pay more to get one but thats okay, And very little $ for my time.
Bottom line is when my customer comes in with her husband on monday to surprise him for xmas and hes surprised and smiling.
Sucsess!!

As apposed to your ads, which bashes all buyers? (even legitimate collectors that may choose to buy directly from a seller, not a retailer)

"Sell to a Legit Company, There are lots of Cl horror stories on the internet about people coming to buy your stuff, and things go wrong
