    Quoted from freeplay3:

    Even at 750 I think it's over priced.

    Careful, the price police will swoop in and start running you down brother.

    https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/384934562105501/ I'd say KISS this one goodbye, she's toast. And $500!?!?!!

    Guy said he had multiple offers for $200. I was looking to get it even cheaper just to hang up the playfield in my gameroom...

    One of those rare ads that is up front about selling a turd.... I appreciate the honesty.

    Got bars on the patio to keep vandals from messing it up?

    Looks like a standard wrought iron porch railing that is common around here with a plant rack.

    #6308 4 years ago

    The bars are worth more in scrap then the pinball.

    #6309 4 years ago

    That's by far the nicest picture. The others show how bad it real is.

    Nah. We took some scrap from work a few weeks ago and the scrap prices are so low a truck bed full of electric motors, ballasts and other odds and ends was $34. Literately cost us more to make the trip and back then if we just left the stuff on the curb.

    I'd rather have the pin, some good parts there to keep other pins going..

    Ole' Mike and Frank be like, that is just the added charm of patina! An autograph on it from Gene and it would be $10K all day long!

    I'm not falling for that one...again.

    #6316 4 years ago

    TNT probably wouldn’t even bother throwing that one off the roof.

    #6317 4 years ago

    Bah. Tons of good parts there
    Lockdown bar
    Coin door and trim
    Probably most of the boards
    Kickouts, coils, displays.....

    Always pays off to have parts machines around

    Hmmmmm Boobs or pinball...tough choice!

    #6322 4 years ago

    That's a pretty cheap boob job

    #6323 4 years ago

    Well, it's never been listed on Pinside, so this could be the market price for it. Right? So what if it doesn't keep score.
    I mean, surely the OP did a google search and came up with that number instead of a bunch of threads saying that they forgot the decimal point.

    My Surf Champ has twice as many players. A deal at $6k? Ha...

    Sad thing is, I bet I could get someone to pay $2k for mine.

    #6326 4 years ago

    Not crazy priced like some of the games here, but you need to appreciate the amount of plays this game must have had in its life.

    It’s on my wishlist, will novus clean this up?

    #6328 4 years ago

    I didnt see the game in person. Unless that's brown paint that was spilled on the playfield, I will need to say no. Novus will not clean it up.

    #6329 4 years ago

    I was joking

    #6330 4 years ago

    This may be the funniest pinball craigslist thing I've seen. I really hope the guy is a pinsider and he's just trolling, but I think this is for real.

    So he has had his Bally Kiss for sale for over a month, with 3 identical ads with different first photos, just in case you don't see it. Wants $3550

    And then today I noticed... Now there is a wanted ad for.. BALLY Kiss and the guy is willing to pay...$3550 and he's looked everywhere and cant find one

    He's literally trying to drum up fake interest and hype for his overpriced game hahaha omg

    Talk the seller down to $750 and hardtop it. Looks like most of the sanding is already done.

    Aw man. I checked your profile, hoping it was you! Woulda been the most meta sales event of all tiiiiimmmmeeee!

    I thought about it. Its not a game I would keep and I would never get my money back. Just a whole lot of work. If it was something I wanted I absolutely would have done that.

    Quoted from ItsBwalt:

    That Kiss machine has been on CL off and on since at least mid-2016. I think it has been on longer, but I first made note of it in the middle of 2016. It started at $4k.

    I think the ad about looking for a Kiss is someone messing with him, not the seller trying to drum up interest.

    A friend of mine somehow got in touch with the Kiss seller, I think because he was selling a game and the Kiss seller contacted him. My friend nicely broached the subject of the Kiss pin being overpriced, but couldn't convince the guy that he's nuts. At least he tried. I guess we can look forward to many more years of an overpriced Kiss on KC CL.

    #6335 4 years ago
    Quoted from agodfrey:

    Kid you NOT..... Flight 2000 on CL. All it needs is JUST A FUSE.......
    ++++
    I have a flight 200o in good condition, I believe it needs a fuse it lights up but doesn’t play sound worked great open to an offer
    It totally worked fine had great sound it know lights and doesn't start the game I bought it from Waltons and they believe it needs a fuse to play complete it is in nice shape

    Yes, just check out the fuse block.

    Are those bullets?? New meaning to when the fuse blows

    Quoted from jesperpark:

    Look like .22 longs. Only one blew.

    Best worst idea ever!!!!!

    #6339 4 years ago

    That pin is shot!

    #6340 4 years ago
    Quoted from LTG:

    LTG : )

    Those are .22 WMR. They are .22 magnum. They are around .25" longer than a .22 long.

    Your right but I'am not quite buying it. No powder burns anywhere on that fuse block? What are the odds? (No offence bob-e)

    #6342 4 years ago

    What bullet type does the schematic call for? I hope it’s a slo-blo.
