Man...no great prices around here!
omaha.craigslist.org link
omaha.craigslist.org link

Two classics...way over priced for the condition they are in. Just my guess is people are getting their prices from pinrescue. If this was the case, I would sell my collection in a heart beat! According to them by Pro-Football is worth around $4000.00, my Gigi is worth $3750.00 and my Bullseye Baseball is worth $2700!

Cover Girl in San Jose, CA:

I just played a "Cover Girl" last week. It's a fun game and purty!

I love it when people do this:
desmoines.craigslist.org link

Great deal! I was ready to pick it up, but then he responded, "A guy offered me $250.00 so if you beat his price...you can still get it!" Still a great price, but I could see the bidding war beginning! I told him, he should update his price on Craigslist!

#7420 9 years ago

Bally Bow and Arrow....nothing I need, but for $200.00 it was a nice price! But the price keeps going up.

Yes...those dang "flappers"!

#7425 9 years ago

Oh I could of probably beat the other buyer to the house, but it's just the premise. If the guy has it listed for $200.00 on craigslist, that should be the price to the first person that shows up at his house.

Here's a job opening for anyone in DesMoines, IA!

"Hey.. Looking for some people who like to work on pinball machines.. Do you like to work on them.? Do you like to teach and help other pinball owners.... Do you have any of your own...? .....We need someone to help with electrical or problem solving skills... Why they don't work or break down for unknown reasons..LOL"

Quoted from heatwave:

" target="_blank"Oh well. I just picked up this 1967 Bally World Cup (SOLD to me!).
" target="_blank">stlouis.craigslist.org link
I remember playing this once as a kid and it's a nice addition to my 4 pins and a pitch and bat game. Go pick it up tomorrow. It needs a little work but seems to be in very good condition overall. I'm excited!

You're going to love that World Cup. Buddy of mine has one...very cool! (Weighs a freaking ton!)

#13831 8 years ago

Here's a gem! A Genco Spitfire 1933

Pretty cool game!

You guys see this Heat Wave with this custom paint job....it's hot!

#13893 8 years ago

The playing field paint job is what really sells it!

#13896 8 years ago

HELLO SEATTLE!

#13899 8 years ago

Playing field looks good, cabinet looks descent....$150.00- don't think it's going to be around for long...even if it had a rats nest in it!

Lots of goodies! I know....I was there last sunday!
omaha.craigslist.org link

#13966 8 years ago

Also part of this collection is two of these:
http://www.polzin.ca/
Never seen such a thing!

#13970 8 years ago

There are two Skyjumps and they are complete. One has a really rusty front door and water damage on the front of the cab, but the inside and tops on both are really good. The heads look great on most the games....backglass on the one skyjump could be sealed and called good.
The other pins were pretty attacked by mice and moister.

Dirtflipper - I pulled in a Chicago Coin Motorcycle and Rifle Champ. Love the looks of both games. I've been working on a Bally Sub-Pack that is really cool...that the guy pulled out for me to work on. The arcades favored well in storage (EM and solid state), the pins did not. He grabbed most the shooting games (Twin Rifles, Big Top, Genco shooting game (can't remember which one), Chicago Coin Flying Ducks...just to name a few. The jukeboxes look amazing. A really amazing fine! Whoever goes out there Sat. should have a blast. Two shufflebowlers (united I believe), ball bowler, and lost of classic arcades!

The one in MN wouldn't be so bad if the guy did some webbing on it!

#14118 8 years ago

Or best offer! That being said...I've called guys and said, "I had a better offer than the original asking price"

Quoted from o-din:

One could only wish Shay had all the backglasses on his site still available.

Don't try to order that Genco 2 player basketball either - sold out!

#14428 8 years ago

I checked in on this guy and he said he would go $350.00 Come on KC guys....somebody go pick this thing up so I don't have to make a 3.5 hour road trip!
kansascity.craigslist.org link

#14434 8 years ago
Quoted from John_in_NC:

I almost picked this one up in January on a road trip from NC to CO. Super deal at $475, Unreal at $350 but it needs some playfield work from what I can see.

SOLD! The guy was nice enough to send me an email and let me know that someone picked it up. So who was it!?!!?

#14524 8 years ago

Pretty cool shooting game....a little out of my price range though.

Nice game. Looks like a decent repaint. Rails look a little dinged up.

"Can only get the Jack in the Box link to work on this post?? "

Because they either sold or have been removed.

#14899 8 years ago

Another good deal on the eastcoast!

#14910 8 years ago

Oh I'm sure it sounds like a Chicago Coin with that "door bell" chime!

#14911 8 years ago

This one is kind of entertaining....."no low ballers" however, I'm not going to give you a price! But I've seen these go for $2000.00...

stlouis.craigslist.org link

#14922 8 years ago

DANG! That's a great deal in Austin, TX!

He's back and bitter evidently! HA!

#15042 7 years ago

Hey Kansas City! Might be worth checking out if they'll do a package deal...I counted 4 ems and a pretty nice looking pitch n bat. I'm too busy this weekend, so I'm out!
kansascity.craigslist.org link

The only non promising thing I see is one price tag on the woodrail for $600.00.....looks like they have been watching "Garage Wars" or some fantasy auctioning show...so good luck!

#15044 7 years ago

Dang...good eye!

That "A-Go-GO" looks just like Suspense....3 years later! But Suspense does get rated a solid "8" on ipdb.....

#15330 7 years ago

This is kind of funny! Guy has this Flying Carpet, not gone thru for $2600.00. I asked them where they got that price and this was the responds:
"All of the listings that I have seen are going for $3,000 or up and the only thing that is wrong with the machine is that it needs a new fuse. The new fuse is a very cheap fix (probably a dollar or so fix) , but I took $400 off anyways."

Here's the listing: desmoines.craigslist.org link

It's always just a fuse! Pretty sure those are original rubbers on there too!

#15333 7 years ago

My buddy told me I should sell them a $400.00 fuse!

UPDATE: They just told me that it comes with extra rubbers and lightbulbs! Sweet!

#15360 7 years ago

Good deal on the Big Indian...nice backglass! Last one I worked on, all the blue was flaking!

#15363 7 years ago
Quoted from CactusJack:

Glass isn't all that great. Flaking behind the big Indian name and whites going at Player 4. Probably worse than its pictured. But still a good deal on a good game.

Man...I would still take it for $300.00 and that backglass would be easy to fix.

It's not an EM but it's local for me! And nope....I don't think they put too many zeros! NUTS!
omaha.craigslist.org link

#15380 7 years ago

If you're going to make me type "monkey Butt" in the header...I'm out!

#15414 7 years ago

That Big Ben backglass is awesome!

#15418 7 years ago

I stripped a whole cabinet with Goo-gone aresal.....and underneath all the latex, I found the original cabinet. But yes, they really hosed the cabinet. Talk'em down to $350.00 and have a fun repaint project. Big Indian is a fun game and worth the effort !

#15452 7 years ago

And pretty nice prices Robert! Wish I was closer!

#15543 7 years ago

Not a pinball machine, but still pretty cool!
omaha.craigslist.org link

#15547 7 years ago

Nice Williams Pitch n Bat.....I walked by this abandon shop here in Omaha and saw this thing on there floor about a month ago, thinking I could buy and fix this thing up....but not at this price!
omaha.craigslist.org link

Update: Here's what the guy said, "Well, it did work when it was put in storage. The price, I've seen fully restored ones go for $5000, it gets kind of strange with the old, vintage games, sometimes the parts are worth more than the whole machine, if you need them. "

Big Top is a great game! Somebody will be lucky to own it!

HA! I only knew because I have that same "EM"!

WOW...Skateball rated 7.4 and 4150 were made! Kind of a cool game! You should hightap it!

#15777 7 years ago

#15908 7 years ago
Quoted from o-din:

Mini Golf at a not so easy price.
losangeles.craigslist.org link

DANG! That's a keeper for sure....with that price!

#15918 7 years ago
Quoted from AlexF:

Every time Mini Golf comes up for sale someone gets freaked out. It's just one of those games that sells for crazy money. Don't think of it as an EM pinball. It's more along the lines of Flying Turns, Genco Basketball, Williams Ten Strike or a better Pitch and Bat.

I would not pay over $1000.00 for this pitch n bat.....

desmoines.craigslist.org link

I get so ticked when one of these pops up on my search....

And I used that webbing out of can once.....never again! Stuff is like tar!

#15928 7 years ago

WOW! Those last two are some great deals!

Hotline for $300.00 and the Spirit for $400.00....I'd have those in the back of my van today if I was closer!

WOW! What backglass!?!?!

Dixieland is a great game! Each letter of "Dixieland" light up for the bonus in the backbox, the clarinet bonus, the upper right sidelanes, zipper flippers...lots of stuff. Wish I still had mine....but that backglass is tons better on that one!
