Quoted from o-din:Maybe he should separate them and lower the price on both.
He did say he'd sell the Abra separate, but wants $900. Not a terrible price, but more than I am willing to pay for a project/unrestored example.

I thought the ACD looked pretty good. What did you see wrong? There are a couple twisted inserts and a broken plastic near the flipper but I didn't see much else other than some minor cab damage.

Look at the front of the game again and compare to IPDb pics. You will see it has been repainted to a non-original design (spatter also done over the yellow incorrectly). That being the case, there may be other things done to the game that are non-original(like the blue lower lane guides, easy to replace). I'm not saying it's offensive, just had some work done that makes the game less original.
Quoted from DirtFlipper:Wms Cue Ball woody coming up for auction Saturday in Syracuse:
syracuse.craigslist.org link
Don't know why this is listed in Syracuse because this auction is in North Haven, CT. The photos they show are not necessarily what will be auctioned off this time, because that nice "Cue Ball" was already sold at a previous auction for a silly low price.
Decent looking Southern Belle in Ontario for $500:

(sorry, cheated and went to kijiji instead of CL)
How to make an already tough to sell bingo game even tougher to sell:
1. No photos ("DON'T ASK")
2. Stored outside under a tarp in Seattle area and now no longer works
3. Appointment only
4. $250 FIRM

That and SO76!
I like the statement: "We actually had it serviced last night by a licensed pinball repairman."
Licensed? EM repair? He must have got it off a cereal box top and sent off for it.

Thanks for taking the time to explain. I don't always know what to look for. The playfield looks nice and it seemed to work good, and that's all I was really looking at. I didn't know the game well enough to notice the small details.
I'm the guy that bought them, Going to pick them up this weekend.

No cert yet. But if I keep donating to Clay, I'm sure I'll get one...someday.
Then I'll be a real man!
Quoted from ccotenj:What, you don't have one of these ken???
Hahahaha! LMAO
Sorry Chris I missed that one! I guess I should have checked the back of my comic book section next to the 100 Stamps for 1 cent and the Charles Atlas Ad to send away for one.

Quoted from MikeO:Looks good on a resume.

Wow, this is near my inlaws in Fla. Wish my father in law was a little younger & able to check it out!!
Ugh, I hate those gum ball machines. Well, technically there is nothing wrong with them. They are kind of a cute novelty, but 9 times out of 10 when I click on an ad for an "antique" gum ball machine guess what pops up? 1980s-2000s Carousel gum ball machine...

yup, right up there with click on ad for "antique pinball" and it is a pachinko or bingo machine...

Yeah, that is too bad. Neat looking game. However one of these is on the correct side of the country. Anybody recognize it? Not you Alex.

I want that one!!
No idea what it is, but its a Zaccaria game. Those 2 pop bumpers give it away as Combat has them too Mid 70's? Looks nice though, go and buy it.
Is it Aerobatics by Zaccaria? (1977) I only have a backglass pic, not the playfield so I can't be sure, but the planes are the same so it must be.
Quoted from Hyperball91:Is it Aerobatics by Zaccaria?
Ding Ding!
Quoted from Hyperball91:go and buy it
I'm going to give it a try! Really looks cool.
Quoted from Hyperball91:So what do I win o-din?
A free trip through my screen door.
