    Quoted from Rascal_H:

    How is this over a grand with 21 bids? I gave one away for free!
    ebay.com link

    Because it was LED’d. Haha. No friggin way. I gave away a Marvel one, but should’ve kept it for my daughter. You rarely see them go for more than $150.

    And it was relisted, so something scammy has to be going on with it.

    If his kid died, he could really just want to get rid of it, and he could be elderly. What kind of town is Huntington Park?

    #5654 5 years ago

    If you really think that's a legit ad, I have a bridge to sell you.

    Quoted from Colsond3:

    So, i thought the same thing. Not that i have the money to buy it, but to tell him that the game goes for much more than that. I got a weird message stating that the contractor is no longer in business as of February 2017....blah blah blah. So I guess i got scammed. Now I will be flooded with telemarketing calls or maybe the IRS will be after me.

    Or maybe because you gave the right answer and tried to do the right thing, John Quinones from What Would You Do will show up at your door with a free TZ for you. #glasshalffull

    Yeah, that coin door sure proves it was never used commercially. And so does the sticker residue on the apron from an operator's name or license. And the wear near the #4 insert from the kickout.

    Nice burned up chime coil.

    Quoted from Soulrider911:

    I think ridiculousness finally hit a high. This is beyond hilarious.... only 25k for a back to the future hahahaha

    That is still on ebay. I emailed to ask if there was something special that made his $2500 machine worth 25k. Response was "you don't own it" LMAO!

    I am selling it for $2,500.00.

    A 1949 collector's item Williams pinball machine. This original, historic piece of American pop culture - complete with original commissioned artwork gracing the playfield and back glass has been brought back to life, masterfully refurbished by the world's premier pinball archive. Fully restored to it's bell-ringing, ball-flipping, light-up glory (in need of a switch to function properly but we no longer have room for it)

    DETAILS -

    Tic-Tac-Toe was released in 1949, with original artwork by George Malentin and engineered by Harry Williams
    Wood rail design with light-up back-glass animation

    Huh! Looks like this was really sold by Restauration Hardware. Wonder how many they had... just one?

    That is friggin weird. Someone overpaid a bit. And I love woodrail games that come with metal legs. Coin door looks nice.

    #5678 5 years ago

    The price isn't that bad BUT the big kicker on this one is "If you're not good at jiggling light bulbs or don't know what WD-40 is, you might want to pass." A.) don't degrade pinball repair to just jiggling bulbs and B.) who uses WD40 for repairs??
