    Quoted from Stu:

    Why would we do that when we have already run this title?...

    You've run all the titles that people have listed here saying that they have?

    #99 8 years ago

    Quoted from Gatecrasher:

    I like finding these (although I don't seem to find them anymore).
    Fully-assembled NOS playfields in the original wooden Bally crate. Then you not only get the mint playfield, you also get the mint apron, score cards, plastics, all the mechanisms, switches, wiring, etc.
    The only thing you usually need to replace are the rubbers because they tend to be dry-rotted after 40 years. Everything was like-new on this one. The only thing I had to replace other than the rubbers was one lamp socket that had a broken lug. Even the connectors were mint.

    I also had fully-assembled NOS Bally Fathom, Playboy, and Star Trek playfields over the years.
    I haven't seen any in several years now though.

    How the heck do you find something like that.

    Good thing I can't zoom in on that thing.

    #321 8 years ago

    Oh man that's a shame, I can't imagine trying to fix his face. It's such great art work too.

    #329 8 years ago
    Quoted from balboarules:

    Yeah, tell me about it, I had to buy another playfield and do a full swap, I could not live with my game like that.

    Maybe you could take it to an art restoration place, after all it is art that has to be replaced.

    #334 8 years ago

    I just bought a new 2011 Rolling Stones pf from Stern for $189 and they said it wasn't a second and nothing wrong with it. I'm gonna light up the inserts and use it as wall art after my bodyman is done spraying clear on it. BTW they have 9 left.

    #347 8 years ago
    Quoted from CaptainNeo:

    that's about the same value i'd put on it, if it was fully populated and put in a cabinet.

    Ya know that's what I like about you....always something positive and nice to say.

    Quoted from kruzman:

    I have a nos DE star wars pf as well as 66 new/nos others.
    I have been trying to manage a pf co op, but like mentioned above, there are not many for sale. Often when people sell the one pf they have they want the sky and the moon for it. so what I do is: If you sell me a new, nos pf, when you need one in the future and I have one you get it for my cost rounded up. If you have never sold me a pf thats ok too. The way I do it for the most part is if it cost me 700 or less I add 100, over 700 I add 200.
    So prices are diffrent for the same titles all of the time. I have so much money tied up in to 60 pf's. some dont sell for 10 years. I have one that I bought 13 years ago.
    If your mind set is short termed, and you get a nos ToM you can make a one time pimp preimum of $2000 on it. gouge someone once. Since you have a regular job, it dosent matter, just extra money. This is the problem I am running in to lately when trying to keep and buy pf's to keep in stock for people. If you plan to be in pinball for a life time, it may be a good investment to sell your pf at an acceptable price when you still make some money. Then when you need a title in the future and contact me, just remind me to check the ToM you sold me at xxxx, and I will hook you up any time.
    I try to post a list of the pf's available monthly on pinside but you can always check in any time if you are looking for a title, or beter yet selling a title.
    I want to thank the 2 people who sold me pf's at expo, and the guy who sold the pf that I borrowed money for before I left, because my phone battery was dead for 12 hours. Even though I checked in and reconfirmed 3 times that week including the day before. Not cool at all.
    Anyway nothing new. as always I want to thank everyone for the support! cheers, r kruzman

    Your one of the good guys in the hobby Ron.

    Quoted from RustyLizard:

    First off, please note the missing inserts that I mentioned. Some guys like to backlight their wall art and this one would look off with the bare holes.
    I think the playfield has more value as a restore candidate and I think you could find cheaper wall art.
    That being said, this would make an awesome hanger because of all the color it has. If you want it for $100 PM me and I will give you payment info. If you want to look for something cheaper, I get that too.

    Are those inserts available anywhere?

    #818 7 years ago
    Quoted from RustyLizard:

    I haven't looked. I sold my Cybernaut the way it was. They are just round so I would think so.

    I would think so too. What color should they be?

    Quoted from kruzman:

    The 3 stern pfs I have cleared the most are (in order)
    lotr
    simpsons
    monopoly
    I did this about4 maybe 5 years ago. Since then its gone to the west coast and back. I just got it back from the fella I did it for originally, and it looks like I wet block sanded it yesterday. Some pfs move around a little in the years after clearing, and some a lot if they were new/fresh when I did them. Usually I need to run the polisher over them for a sec. This is how it came out of the box. price is 1150 or trade plus or minus.
    For reference the clear on this cost 700$

    Quoted from kruzman:

    I dont know if they ever made the repro for this. I bought it about 5 years back when they did not. This pf is in super nice restorable condition. I restored one years ago and had it installed, wow! Perfect game for no friction lightning fast ball play. This one still has its mylar, and I will sell it for what I paid for it about 5 years ago. 400. That doesnt include the shipping I paid.
    If it doesnt sell and I get the time I will restore/clear it and hang it. Its got some great art!
    [quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

    Yeah it's beautiful art, I have a NOS that's been cleared and man it's perfect.
