It said she would be solo didn't it? So I guess "Lucky hand" is called for.
This one is too funny. Listing states "Rare Funhouse". Price $6400. And of course the plywood coin door is icing on the cake

"Front door is set for free play."
Amazing!
Quoted from xTheBlackKnightx:Is the FH door childproof?
Particle board cabinets (including doors) never seem to hold up over time.
Looks like the owner took it off the bookcase next to the machine.
My guess is that it's a cabinet door from an RV, due to the handle. Cabinet doors are mostly MDF.
I saw the FunHouse ad too, and while I feel bad that the guy has "mounting medical bills", he's apparently mistaken concerning the value of his game. Sure, you could replace that hideous door, but you have to wonder if that's the only "mod" on this game.
I'm a player, not a buyer/seller. Curious what some of y'alls would consider a fair price if the game is solid.
Quoted from LeonSpinkx:I'm a player, not a buyer/seller. Curious what some of y'alls would consider a fair price if the game is solid.
About $2500.
Quoted from wayout440:About $2500.
IMHO, it's worth somewhere north of $2.5K if (I emphasize, "IF") the coin doors and mechs are the ONLY issue. I'll admit the photos could be better, but from what I see the game is not that bad.
On facebook they show better pics but they cut the wires for the coin mechs so they could have a free play mod LOL

Not Craigslist but hey, they've "replaced the rubber bands".

Is that some sort of wooden handle on the door? It looks more like a laundry chute than a coin door!

Yeah, I was going to say- usually when someone say something like that- You'll probably find rubber bands on the machine. Oh, maybe just covering the exit lanes.

Okay, when you meet the seller, you challenge with, "The Pacman has Ladies Lips." and they'll respond with "Ms. Pacman wears army boots."

That is frickin hilarious!
So who is the winner?
Catching up:
Re: Minneapolis pinball porn shoot: does the game have to be Ho Use Only?
(Maybe I'll get more laffs with that one here than I did in the WI/MN thread!)
Re: Wooden Funhouse coin door: I bet they bought it many years ago (and overpaid) at the local outfit that always removes coin doors and replaces them with cheap plastic panels, to discourage route competition. (And they got out of pinball a long time ago.) The wooden door would actually be an improvement! And then this seller heard about prices skyrocketing of late... voila! $6300!

Wow.....Chicago might be just wrapped a little tight. Down here we just make fun of the gumball machine seller or maybe the guy wanting to trade his pinball game for some brood sows.

Even weirder, all three pictures are the same. And if you look at the revisions, he changed the title once. Wonder what it used to say.

It took me forever to even notice the typo lol. That's not a bad price though. I'm sure it's somewhat negotiable and it's what I got out of my jackBot in similar condition

jmountjoy111 is right. The price is reasonable, not blown out out like most CL and ePay prices.
Every now and then you go cruising around America looking for funny listings and you see a great buy pinball machine. Then you just sort of "sigh" and think about how you wish it was closer. Except Chicago CL...... they are way crazy up there.

"Man cabe special Balleys is the best, very cool."
There is a special place in my heart for games that are potentially copied from other ads, fakes, or shills.
Otherwise, the seller simply forgot to take the prior price tag down and has the education of a third grader.
It must include a motorcycle, moped, truck, or automobile with every purchase as an extra gift.
VROOOM!
Quoted from vdojaq:It appears the "oscar" has been awarded.
Quite the rant.
Someone's got a case of the Mondays...

If you find it again please embed it here so it won't get removed. I would like to know who the winner is.

I have no idea how embed it. It seems like it was flagged anyway. The winner was the guy with the inflatable clown for trade

I'm beginning to think this is some guy trying to piss off an ex-girlfriend by filling up her voicemail box (yes, I called... many times... no answer) and a million texts. He even put a space in "pin ball" so she wouldn't find the ad. Clever!

I think the pic is foreign. Check out those outlets.
