    He says "..it could use some cleaning." I'm thinking, "well why don't you clean it?"

    Lowell, been "in storage" he says.

    More like "been in leaky chicken poop backyard plywood shed"

    Did you reply that "Shopped and fully working pins are selling at high prices but dirty POS don't?"

    900$ for a couple of fun fixer-uppers?
    What exactly are we complaining about here?

    My favorite is "worked last time it was plugged in" what are you ? Amish? Plug it in again!

    --note-- I am not too worried about offending any amish pinball people on this forum.

    Depending on Condition I would snap up that 8 Ball LE

    I am pretty sure they are $900 each.

    Agreed I would have to see these in person ASAP.

    More room to breathe in the first LE machine "8 ball deluxe".

    But both are great games if not to damaged.

    I'd pay $400 tops.

    My favorite ad is "few bulbs out, will give u a box of new ones". Translation: I have GI out, too lazy to fix it, these bulbs won't do u any good, but it's a nice gesture right?

    Have to admit, he did store two kick ass games!

    #12 11 years ago

    I'm sure someone will buy it,
    heard pinball in Texas is getting more popular

    If the only thing wrong with those pins is dirt, I don't think his prices are outrageous. If they fired up, I'd go 700 on each one any day of the week. I think they are two great titles.

    Quoted from Honch:

    If they fired up

    That looks to be a pretty big "IF". You gotta wonder why they went into the chicken coop shed in the first place. Maybe I'm just a pessimist, but I would not have much hope.

    I wouldn't buy them with "the hope" that they would fire up. I'm just saying if I showed up and they could be turned on, I'd go for it. I don't make assumptions about anything when it comes to pins. I don't think you're pessimistic, it looks like it would be a long shot that they would work.

    Those are sold Chachie, cheap too, heck one was from Treasure Cove. Did you not see my FS post? I sold to make room for 3 sweet HUO machines & I am still hunting for 2 more.

    I waited until I nearly paid off my home at age 33 before deciding to buy a respectable collection. I blame my previous financial background & the book Affluenza! Luckily my day to buy cool pins is finally here & it feels really cool.

    Are those your machines? Did I offend you by not stating it was a great deal? Is this a legitimate FS thread? Sorry for having some fun man.
