I've got a populated Fathom playfield and was curious to see if there was a market for something like that. It's used, but the playfield is actually pretty nice overall. Has all the stuff underneath and on top + apron...main thing I noticed missing were the flipper mechs, but those are pretty easily replaced since they're standard. It's main use I thought would be to turn a Bally that nobody wants into a Fathom. Any clues? Thanks

show a picture can help.for exemple last week on ebay a cpr fist run,sell for 1150$...

Pics definitely. I don't think anybody would try to turn a machine into a fathom, but a lot of the original playfields were blown out around the middle inserts so if it's restorable probably worth at least $500 to an existing fathom owner if it's decent.

examiner: where did you come up with a $500 price tag? I bought a populated (nice) Fathom Playfield not long ago for $200.....

I didn't know you had a Fathom! What are the chances I could come check it out?

Well currently it's not working (or not working very well anyways). When I get it going I'll let you know. I still haven't done anything with the extra playfield, it's still sitting in my garage...I have to clean it up before I can sell it, and I just haven't gotten around to that yet. It appears as though I might do that soon though, I've gotten pinged by at least 4 or 5 people about selling it. I actually have another unpopulated playfield that I may sell as well, it's not great but considering how expensive the new ones are it might be possible to restore this one.

Hi! I might go for it uncleaned.

Finally got it cleaned up for those of you who were interested and took a couple pictures here:

I have plastics to replace the missing ones btw. Playfield has partial mylar, must had been laid down after it got some play as the wear spot by the 4 is under the mylar. Obviously it's still pretty dusty, I just tried to clean up the basic areas.

Ok, for those who are interested, I'm probably going to part it out IF I get enough interest in individual parts. So message me about what piece you might want. Seems like the wiring harness being cut makes it better to probably part it out.

Just an update, looks like the pieces from the top have been spoken for pending somebody wanting the bottom stuff. Anyone who wants something from the bottom, please let me know. Thanks
