    Machine included?

    #7803 3 years ago

    At least the shipping cost is reasonable...nice to see they aren't ripping you off on the shipping.

    #7804 3 years ago

    If you think you have it bad in the US, we also have some laughs North of the border.

    Glad to see that they have decided to cut the price in half on this unknown condition Surf Champ... (no description, awesome detailed pictures)

    Ha, nice local find to me; I hadn't seen that one. I'll take one too please.

    #7807 3 years ago

    I know, not Craigslist but I couldn't resist... I love WMS Gulfstream, it was my first pin purchase in 1986 and I still have it today but geez 3K and no decent pix to see how much of a stretch the price really is?

    Well, it comes with extra fuses...and he DID include a picture of those.

    #7809 3 years ago

    From Offer Up. open box never used. Wonder if they still have it... shipping cost is very reasonable.

    I’m not sure I understand this post, unless he’s trying to show us some of his ridiculous prices. Less than 30 day newb.

    That is an ad from fb market place, my apologies if this thread is not about pricing of machines in our area.

    Craigslist is kind of dying around here and FB market place is where it is at now for selling items locally.

    #7815 3 years ago

    This is the thread to laugh at ridiculously over-priced machines listed on Craigslist and/or Facebook.

    And you posted a bunch of over-priced machines for sale...so, I guess it IS on topic...or something.

    #7816 3 years ago

    https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/965933650479350/

    Just came across this one. Not the craziest price but still delusional.

    #7817 3 years ago

    f14 playfield in "awesome condition", at the bargain price of $400!!

    I just sold a nice space jam for $2800 and how does this fool think he can get anywhere near $20k??? WTH??

    Star Trek Pinball ROM Chip - $250 (North Jersey)
    Star Trek Pinball ROM Chip. Never used, in original bottle.
    Firm on price, not a lot of new ones left for this game.

    Quoted from BallyKISS1978:

    I'm convinced that a lot of these are the wife telling a man-child to 'get rid of that thing', and him doing a passive-aggressive 'but honey, no one wants to buy it' instead of having an actual conversation like a bloody adult.

    #7822 3 years ago

    Does it even matter that the chip is brand new? It’s not like the programming is going to fade as if it’s music on an 8 Track, right?

    Quoted from undrdog:

    The 1s and 0s are like new old stock. BIG premium.

    "bit rot" is a thing. The eproms do wear out with age, strangely enough. But even so, burning a new one is only a couple of bucks. And you could probably ust burn the data back onto the same chip and it would last 40 more years.

    #7825 3 years ago

    Put me in for two!

    #7826 3 years ago

    Can I get one with just the ones? I don't need the zeros - got plenty of those.

    #7827 3 years ago
    Quoted from undrdog:

    Put me in for two!

    Two in binary is one, right? So, I guess I only need one. For two machines.

    #7828 3 years ago
    Quoted from Beatnik-Filmstar:

    These are 90's bits, hence the price.

    [quoted image]

    This one has to be a joke. I saw it as well... $20k for a Spacejam or trade for a GNR or POTC CE. I want some of the crack that he’s smoking.

    #7831 3 years ago
    Quoted from vdojaq:

    I don't remember 3" flippers on a Gottlieb Egg Head

    Wow...that ball is never going to drain between that gap!

    Has to be a joke ad.

    #7835 3 years ago
    Quoted from Pinsforfun:

    I'll sell mine for half this price.

    Probably, Pin balls are worth more than pinballs.

    #7837 3 years ago
    Quoted from vdojaq:

    I just picked one up yesterday for $400

    So your not interested in mine for $2250? Prices have gone insane. I don't see myself buying a pin anytime soon.

    If you hold tight, the deals do come along. In the last 30 days I got a beautiful Cyclone for $2K and now this Aladdin's Castle for $400.

    #7845 3 years ago

    Seems like a bargain but the pics show at least three different machines...

    dallas.craigslist.org link

    #7846 3 years ago

    Compare the left background in pic 2 with the left background in pic 6

    #7847 3 years ago

    There are also three different apron cards and the red leg protectors on one but none of the others. It is like one of the find-the-difference pics in Highlights magazine.

    I'm sorry even I as a Data East fan have no love for one of the slackest titles they produced and revulsion over the thought of someone asking $7500 for an example with a clapped out cabinet.
