I was just about to write, "You are whining about a worn cab for $600?"... and then I saw it.

Quoted from asay:That's half price off GRC's!
And TNT amusements if you count their ridiculous warranty plan...

LOL
scoring is only partially working as the number counter for player one counts ones, but does not advance the 10's appropriately. The 10's and 100's counters work,,,,,,
hmmmmm?????? could it be it has an entirely different game in there causing issues lol.
Quoted from asay:"This is not a full size machine that you see in arcades it's a little smaller."
philadelphia.craigslist.org link
...a "LITTLE" smaller? (read caps as sarcasm).
Here's a new one "Museum Quality", which I guess means apron rust, cabinet fade and ball drop wear at the fish, who knows what else with the crappy pics.
Quoted from witty:Looks like someone ruined a perfectly good whitewater
I hope that's just photoshopped.

I think I could scrape together up to $500 for a machine like this that is only 90% working. Any sellers?
Quoted from shaub:I think I could scrape together up to $500 for a machine like this that is only 90% working. Any sellers?
LOL. Specifically 90s and has to be working. I wouldn't flag it...more like good luck to you if someone responds at all.
When I see the wanted posts like this that are not so specific I want to flag 'em though. Often they are listed right alongside of valid for sale posts (purposefully overlooked, I'm sure) "Hey buddy, there's machines around you for sale right now...contact those folks like the rest of us, o.k.?" Now when they are looking for specific titles I will let those slide, and most of the time they are not even looking for what I am looking for anyway. If the wanted post is very generic and says "I just want to buy your broken pinball machine" - We'll, you probably should be flagged then.
Quoted from practicalsteve:check out this awesome pinball table, only 325$!

I like the idea. Not so much on the price.

Guy an known flipper? I don't see many ads out of Menlo park. That price is astronomical.
I thought I had seen everything ebay has to offer: until I ran across this gem.
No pictures....good condition...needs a flipper....otherwise GREAT condition ????!!!!!???
Priced at 4,495.00. lets start at 1,100.

Laughs aside, here's a deadly story involving Craigslist:
http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/10/20/saudi-student-killed/17635787/
Ad sadly, this is only a sample of murders connected with Craigslist.
Is there any playfield art left on this thing? haha. But it is 36 years old, so How could you expect the playfield to be in better condition? My 44 year old EM is NIB condition compared to this thing.
This guys has been constantly posting this and reducing the price. I want to give him $3 to stop but I know it won't work:
And here's another of my favorites. His first ad for this EM for parts machine stated that he only bought it to steal parts out of because they are impossible to find. Well now that can be your problem for only $100. In this ad he also goes on to link to random ebay auctions for SS parts machines that haven't sold just to show you what a good deal it is!

At least he has 17 good photos with close ups for that POS... so many people on CL list machines for 4k+ with one blurry whole game photo from 18 feet away

I love how he says $125 or $100, like anyone would just opt to give him $25 extra for no reason.

That's true. His original ad only had a couple blurry pictures, mostly from the side, and didn't even mention the name of the game. Each time it is reposted there is more info, so I guess it could be worse.

Sounds like a reasonable deal if you are close... that 5" bell alone will sell for at least 1/2 of the asking price. I would buy it if I were closer..

I'd agree. I would love to find a $100 disaster like this nearby for a long term project.
Quoted from kirkgun:hmmm. did the ball get stuck behind that dangling broken rubber, perhaps?
Nice playfield condition though.
charlotte.craigslist.org link
That means they don't know how the playfield glass is removed.. a good sign, means that they have not messed with the guts.

And probably never opened the back box either… That’s not so good.

Yup, only slight wear on playfield!! LOL

That ball is supposed to be there, it's a captive ball on a Stern Stampede.
Not craigslist, but still completely rediculous nonetheless:
ebay.com link: VINTAGE PINBALL MACHINE SPARE PART CHROMED STEEL BALL
A rusty, used ball for $20 on ebay. With $18 shipping.

Call him up and ask if the playfield is "Diamond Plated, has Any mods, or if a color DMD display has been put in aftermarket.

Glad he made sure to tell everyone that it still has 2 of the balls. They must be irreplaceable. 
Quoted from AndHart120:I have always enjoyed this one:
Whitewater pinball (RESTORED) $7650

Thanks for all the wonderful pics of this restored game at a super high price!
Posting expired.
Quoted from kirkgun:This one has caused me to click a few times (I can never remember what it is from the title).
Disappointed every time.
I don't know why I should be disappointed, after all, it has all the bells and whistles. Really? All the whistles? Must be a good deal then.
