So,
I found an early Stern Meteor Pinball Machine on craigslist and have sent an email to the owner (no reply yet).. Basically everything is in fine condition, but when you start the game, it lights up but does not launch and the displays show nothing. The owner said that the game worked fine when he put it in storage three years ago but now it is bust.
So, this will be my second pin if this ends up going through. Is the deal worth it? What damage to look for? I have no idea what I am doing so hopefully it will be an easy fix.
