Quoted from newovad:

ebay.com link » 11 Vintage Classic Pinball Arcade Machine Old School 2 Evil Knievel One Lot
Just down the road from me but seller isn't interested in splitting the lot. It's open for offers, though. Maybe one of you crazy kids wants to take them all off his hands? I'll take an EK as a finders fee.
$11,000 for 11 games.
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Dracula
Evel Knievel x2
Knockout
Laser Ball
Magic
Mata Hari
Motordome

Got to love the ad; big price - little info.

Sky Kings
OP: Pinball machine
Bally sky king (original 1974)
It works but needs a little work to left bumper which works but is not as strong as right one.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/720628758523343/

Someone grab this. Offer less than 500, but it looks to be in great shape. Easy fix.

I already own a Sky Kings, but good first game for someone or easy flip.

I phone bid on the Vector today. Someone local was bidding against me and I stopped at $500 since I couldn't see it fully in person. Playfield had some wear from the pics I recieved and it wouldn't boot (no surprise there).

If another Pinsider got it, let us know.

Guess I might as well let out my secret...I water ski next to 3 Mile Island every weekend of the warm season. Serious. Was out this past weekend for a Barefooting competition.

The discharge is downstream of the recreational area.

Really? That doesn't look too bad from the one photo. Either BS or this is in my way, get it out now for $50.

I am looking for this machine. Unfortunately this is not near me.

#19863 3 years ago

Would love to. I don't think I would have a house or a wife when I return...

I have been known to fly somewhere to pickup a vehicle and drive it home.

#19867 3 years ago
Quoted from bluespin:

Fly to Cali to buy an suv and pick up the pin. Tell the wife “Look what I found on my road trip!”

I like your thinking!

Do it. Do it !! Just never sleep with both eyes closed when you get back home.

And when you're done getting it working 100%, it isn't much of a game either.

I disagree. I find it challenging with many opportunities to choose from during game play.

However, it is one of those machines that seems to be love it or hate it.

Get with a good local pinball buddy and designate him/her to handle all your pinball affairs in your death. I’ve discussed this with local buddies, in case of my untimely demise, my rare games and various projects better not get tossed!!!

I did this for my wife and I have two pinball friends listed with the price sheet. Did the same with my audio gear and test equipment.

Quoted from Friengineer:

That's the worst way to lose out on a game! Happens to us all, one time or another.

I had the exact opposite a few years ago. A guy had a Bally Fireball EM. Wanted way too much for a non-working machine with some missing parts. I waited 30 days and messaged back. He said come get it for $500. 'I'm sick of looking at it.' Win some, loose some.

I agree. I'm just cautious about certain ads. If I miss a deal so be it. It's better than spending hours chasing a hacked account or worse.

That machine has been parted out and placed on eBay. I don't have a link, just search...

#22659 2 years ago

Yep. Coin door minus the hinges and trim (which are still on the cabinet) for $200

#22660 2 years ago
Quoted from truemagoo102:

Guy's an idiot. A game is worth more complete than parted out right now. There's replacements for most of the classic Bally stuff, you're not going to get top dollar for crap used parts.

The amount of time it took him to disassemble, take pics, list on eBay...dear lord. Talk about loosing your a$$ in labor. He is selling the spinner without the switch assembly. WTF?

#22662 2 years ago

The playfield is very nice. Someone local might snag that, but doubt they want to pay to ship that.

Yikes!

#22763 2 years ago
Quoted from jrpinball:

Crazy how the glass broke at a right angle like that. Didn't know that they didn't use tempered glass for the backglass, like Gottlieb did. I guess because of the lift channel along the bottom edge?

I had a Bally Sky Kings with a crack about 3 inches wide in the bottom corner. Not tempered.

Quoted from Garrett:

It's not a project price but not a bad price for a rare bird.
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1614369702290986/

I guarentee that machine is in worse shape than the few lousy pics show. And that price is way high.

#23553 1 year ago
Quoted from cottonm4:

How do you know this machine, please? The FB ad shows it is in Illinois. You show you live in York PA.
How "way high" is the price?
Is it worth an offer? You have seen it?

My gripe is...like many other for sale ads on various sites...not enough photos and real descriptions. I get it, the owner might not know the lingo, but photos are the truth. Not enough photos and it is better to be honest and list what's wrong (again maybe perfect in this case). Seeing the wear around the flippers leads me to believe the rest is rough and therefore priced high.

Quoted from Daditude:

I'm debating whether or not I should make an offer. He is obviously WAYYYY overvaluing this game for its condition. What do you think would be a realistic offer?
Would it be worth making an offer at all?

Go see it in person. I bet the cabinet is full of mice nests and wires that have been eaten. Cloth on the wiring is probably gone. I also bet the playfield under the nest is trashed.

#24320 1 year ago
Quoted from cottonm4:

Same here. I have already joined 3 or 4 groups to see this stuff. I can't keep up with all of the groups.

I get annoyed with the various groups as well. Pinball and my other hobbies have too many groups in FB. I just gave up.

Vandergrift, PA
https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1406082646850644/?mibextid=6ojiHh[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

That is tempting. The game looks like it needs some serious love. The displays are physically damaged and the flipper buttons are suspicious. I'm sure the board has acid damage. Playfield looks decent.

I played a Sorcerer at a pinball arcade a few months ago and really enjoyed it. Would like to find one eventually.

I often wonder if this needs to be two forums - one for EMs, and one for SS. That would reduce the postings for SS to, like, 20.

Please no. Keep it all here. There are plenty of different sale threads here and I'm sure members don't want to check every thread...and add more. It's like the FB Groups. Too many Groups for the same hobby.
