Guess there are still occasional deals out there. Did anyone see the NGG on Mr. Pinball for $1000 this morning? Supposedly working but missing a few things. Like maybe all the boards?? Except that it worked! I got the email around 1:30 in the AM and replied, but he had already sold it...no surprise there except I don't know how anyone beat me since I replied immediately. Oh well. Did someone here get it? Would love to know what it needed! Nice to see that sometimes you can still stumble on an amazing buy.

Congratulations! What an awesome buy. And thanks for solving the mystery of who got it....I was wondering if that was for real. What a small world we pinball collectors are in!

Here where I live there was a HUO Data East Batman for $1200 and since I love the game and even sold some new in the box back in the day, I really wanted it. The ad on CL was about a month old but I figured what the heck and emailed him. I guess I got lucky...he responded but it took many, many emails and phone calls before he had time to allow me the privilege of finally going over to pick it up. I have no doubt many others had previously tried to get it. Point being, I don't understand people that list things on CL and then they don't respond or make it nearly impossible to complete the deal. But, persistence paid off and he did honor the deal and sold it to me and not someone else. And it was a beauty...the backbox had never been opened, the shipping block was still attached! Goodie bag was unopened...couldn't believe it. Playfields on that game are normally trashed! I never seem to get that lucky so it was a good feeling.
