I probally wont have the money till june but id really like a JD for my 20th birthday send me some offers.
Make sure you get the "deadworld" mod for it
You can buy it here http://www.pinbits.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=13_8&products_id=136. It's suppose to make the game that much better
Well if i didnt live 1500 miles away that would be a good deal. I could ask my brother who lives in orlando to get it for me but still i dont think i can come up with that money.
Maldoror, or anyone will NAVL pack and pallet it for you as well. I curious so I can go outside of my state when Im on craigslist for a pin
With NAVL you don't need to pack it or anything though it would be recommended. But, in all likelihood it's going to be closer to $350 not $200. I just did NAVL from VA to CO and it was $400 but that included $35 of extra insurance, standard insurance is $1,500.
Both of the machines I've sold to the collector in Germany were picked up by North American Van Lines. Like people said they do all the pallet and wrapping work although not usually on site. They will even break it down (if you show them how) and wrap the glass parts separately. Those would be the ones you'd want insurance for. A new backglass or even a playfield glass would be expensive on a $350 purchase. If that price is out of your range you might be looking for quite a while on that first machine. Also as a word of advice NEVER EVER USE DHL !!! .
Step one: plug it in. Seriously. You would be surprised how many people are that stupid.
Step two: replace all the fuses.
Then the test points on the Power Driver board. If nothing on these then the transformer is probably bad. Also check the line filter where the power cord comes into the cabinet.
If some of the test points have nothing or are out of spec, then the Bridges and maybe the resistors are shot. If there is power at the test points but not at the playfield and or backbox then one of the new fuses is likely still bad (Happened to me twice) or there is a break in the wire.
