Robert, there's a button on the bottom for Craigslist to send the reply for you. Safari is actually a fun game, for a 20 holer anyway. If I weren't 1700 miles away, I'd go for it.

Chris Nash, seller of that Gate, is standup in my book. I bought a bunch of NOS bingo parts from him about a year or so ago and was very happy.

Nick, what??? Bounty? And the Night Club??

Wish you were closer, I could use another Bounty but I'm not sure why...

Are you bringing that to Roanoke? As far as tax deductions go, that machine has big value. If it's a non profit 501(c)(3) make sure they give you a letter! I hear the six card machines are worth six times as much as a one-card!

Nick I'm glad to see this. Once you've sold them you can't go back. Seller's regret has hit me hard a few times. I get the space issues you're having. Please do yourself a big favor and if you don't have room now just store them a while. Then maybe later you can get a bigger place. Best to you my friend.

OMG if I were even remotely close to this I would be there. At least 13 bingos I can decipher and I actually wouldn't mind a Slick Chick for some reason...

BlackCat, you're there, right? Are you going for it?

Hey, that looks like one of Jon Robinette's games. He had a fantastic collection when I visited him in Maryland about 10 years ago. The only Big Wheel I've ever seen was in his basement.

Great to hear from you Jon! I haven't been back to Baltimore since I met you at your home. I have reservations at York and hopefully will see you there.

Jon I am committed to get there. I've tried in the recent past but stuff happens. Hotel is booked. Was my memory accurate? That was a Big Wheel? After I posted that I thought maybe it was a Magic Ring. What happened to that NOS Bikini playfield?

Jon, I'd love to see it. I sold a really nice Lido about 8 years ago. Totally restored and purchased by a nice guy in South Carolina looking specifically for that title and none other. Could've used that playfield but the one in the game cleaned up nicely. Here's a photo shortly before it left the building.

Yes, I made the stencils. The backglass was NOS, as were the siderails. The rails got a good buff job to bring the shine before installation.

It's all there, so you should be able to bring it back. The operator added some wires you'll probably need to remove after you figure out what he was up to. Good luck, we'll help. Look at my Avatar!

I've got a slow restoration going under the "Carnival Queen" heading right now. And I do mean slow!

jokerpoker, I bought the game as a wreck for $100 bucks and sold it for $3,500. Lido would go for more than a Malibu or Laguna.

A couple of Carnival Queens in Indiana. Looks like it may be an easy fix for anyone local.

Vic, "nice looking"?? LOL. By the way, I now am the proud owner of 11 Show Times, they just keep multiplying. That title was pulled off route in some localities in the West and the newer games were tried, people screamed to get their Show Times back. Weird. Beach Time was another with similar demand, and I have 7 of those.

Good player. OK very desirable. Go for it.

Here's a NOS Bounty repro with the logo. I bought it 6 years before I found a Bounty to put it in, so I had it framed. Now I still need to do something about a cab as the one I found was a total wreck and basically fell apart. I have a near perfect empty Bonanza cabinet but the front configuration is incorrect, so I need to find a replacement or have one made. Maybe some day I'll even get around to it.
