Merrimack, NH 5 months later
Quoted from MinusWorlds:
You just pick up one that needs replacing?
Yup, the one up my way that popped up. I'm sure a bunch of people saw it, the guy got like 30-40 calls, several while I was loading it in my vehicle. Playfield is trashed, but the backglass is near mint. Needs a little fixing so I'm sure I'll be over in the Solid State thread in the near future. If I can track down a less beat up playfield, or if someone is aware of a decal option or similar other method, I'd be interested.
Yeah I was second. Lol. Glad it went to a good home. That playfield was worn lol. But, a good deal regardless. Congrats!
Thanks - it was right around the corner, so I was able to get there with cash in hand quickly. A lot of people just wanted that nice backglass he said. Hopefully I can find a playfield, or suitable way to fix it up. Should be an interesting project.

Thinking of selling my nice Starship Troopers
* Playfield in nice shape, completely torn down topside and shopped
* NOS Plastics except for lanes (unavailable)
* Metal tumbled/polished
* New magnetic core
* Flipper rebuild, new flipper bats
* Pop bumpers rebuilt with clear bodies
* New titan silicone rubbers and LEDs throughout
* New orange posts for a brighter look
* Plays great and fast, boards clean, no issues
Cons: A little mylar missing over an insert or two, but doesn't affect gameplay, cabinet is a little faded, and shows signs of wear here and there (flipper button area in particular).
$2500
Working on the ad and pics to post, PM me with interest. Can possibly bring to Pintastic in MA end of the month if deal is struck.
EDIT: Also have a nice Lost World (1978), nice Space Mission EM and a working Pinbot semi-project I might be selling soon as well.
Couple of the games I have up for sale. I'll be at Pintastic, could potentially bring game(s) there depending on a presale agreement. Also a considering selling a working Pinbot that needs some love.
Really nice SST, check out the ad for details
Great condition Lost World
Pinbot up for grabs
Working on the pics/ad, drop me a PM if you're interested in the mean time. If we can make a deal asap, I can probably bring it down to Pintastic if you want. I'm only an hour or so from there, so you can pick it up at my place too.
* Boots and plays just fine, just having sound issues. I'll include new sound ROMs and such with it.
* Color grid chest area was touched up, but I purchased new overlay decal for it that I'll include. Also has all the other insert decals, though those all look pretty good. Some flipper wear.
* Backglass/Translite in excellent shape
* P2 display isn't working currently, rest are all good
* Comes with some other odds and ends: rubber ring kit, clear blue left flipper button, super bands blue/red for matching purposes, drop decals, etc.
$1450 / obo

Looking for a Guardians of the Galaxy Pro. If someone has one they'd be interested in parting with, please drop me a message. Thanks!

Gottlieb Neptune in pretty nice shape, currently stuck in tilt on power-up but can be manually reset. It was playing with a rollover not-scoring issue as the only hiccup. Thinking about selling/trading it.

This person seems like they may be fairly flexible on price. I don't have much interest in a Sys3 game right now but I know people love this title.
Nice guy. I've been in talks with him since he originally posted since it's on my wish list. Some people have bailed due to the condition and such it sounds like. It's got a lot of wear, hasn't been touched or shopped in a very long time, and was beaten up on route it sounds like, before he got it. I suggested he update his post with those wear pics, since people were asking and he wasn't sure what they wanted to see. I'm tentatively working something out with him already, with pickup planning in the works, but if someone wants to pay him above asking he'll probably take it if I'm being honest.

Quoted from truemagoo102:
Anyone interested in an above average populated High Speed playfield with mint ramps and plastics? I now have one too many and will sell my nicest one. Shoot me a message if you're interested.
Hate to part it out if someone's looking to do an upgrade to theirs.
Is this sale related to that "coffee table" one that popped up yesterday? The playfield on that looked pretty damn nice, cab too. I was curious who grabbed it, and if it was complete.
Nice Price Golden Arrow showed up on FB Marketplace in Manchester. If you can get past the imagery, looks like it could be in really decent shape.

Well this explains the sudden spike on it, bah. 
Quoted from herbertbsharp:
What's the spike?
Spike in interest for the seller after it was posted here. Half joking, I'm sure there was plenty of interest already. Good deal!

Thinking about making a little space. Easy load up straight out the garage.
Space Riders - $850
Nice playfield, mint backglass, cabinet nice. Plays fine, displays are good, new rubber rings, GI / Backglass LED. Only issue is the sound is stuck on low volume.
Target Alpha - $500
Backglass has some flaking in usual spots, playfield has a few spots of wear, Plays fine, sometimes Player 1 scoring awards 5000 instead of 500, but otherwise normal as far as I can tell
Space Odyssey - $300
Playfield decent with a little flipper wear and a little wear near one of the kick outs, cabinet pretty good overall, backglass flaking, currently not working, needs a shop
Will work on pics/ads, drop me a PM if interested. Take all 3 and I'd drop a few bucks off.

Atari Space Riders still available. Someone come grab it for $800.
Nice overall shape, back glass mint, playfield really nice aside from a little bit of wear around the pops. Works and plays well, just has a low volume issue I haven't sorted out yet. Sound works great it's just really quiet.
I picked up the caps and a replacement op amp for the related board, I'll include that with the sale if I don't get around to putting it in before then.

Quoted from Peruman:
Just listed two project EM's from the 60's. The playfields on both of these games are in really good shape.
Those playfields are nice. Amazing how well they held up, great colors too.

Quoted from epeabs:
Anyone pick up the $400 Comet off of Boston craigslist last night? I texted a 1/2 an hour in when I saw the ad and knew it was already too late. I did hear back from the seller today that it had sold.
If anyone here bought that game, please reach out to me if you're willing to discuss. The seller screwed up and sold it out from under me. I was first in line and we agreed to everything, but I just talked to him, and he misread my last text. He said he sold it to someone else because of that mistake on his part. I have some special reasons for wanting to buy it (no, not just because it was cheap), so if one of you grabbed it and doesn't mind discussing, please PM me. Long shot, I know, but I figured I would ask just in case. Thanks.
Quoted from Crispin:
Just left you a message Max ...
Thank you so much for reaching out. He actually text me right after you reached out to him and I'm going to pick it up as originally planned. I see what you mean about the corrosion now that I've seen the pic. Should be fun.
To everyone out there, 
crispin is a stand-up guy that did an awesome thing here today; big thumbs up in my book. Send this man some love/karma. I'll be paying this kindness forward.
Wooo hoo congrats Max!!
Just circling back to close out this story. I picked up the game today, thanks crispin once again! Huge thumbs up for being an awesome dude. The seller ended up being very nice, and was just overwhelmed in general with the situation. The game needs love, and is a little beat, but was a special grab for me personally, regardless of the shape. Now I just need that STTNG to head out so I can do some shopping for a new game =)
Quoted from mpdpvdpin:
Good thing there’s 1000 ads for pinball flyers on Facebook marketplace making it nearly impossible to find an actual pinball machine for sale.
If anyone knows the guy doing that, maybe politely ask him to consolidate to one post that just says "Hey I have pinball flyers, here's a list" or something. It looks like he's FB friends with several hobby folks. It's definitely annoying. I'm all for someone wanting to sell stuff and make a buck, but it's a little crazy when there are so many individual ads for it.
And yeah agreed, FB search functions are junk a lot of the time!
OR you can just block the person's account...
*Facepalm* good point, thanks! Didn't realize I could do that for the marketplace.
