My Gottlieb Magnotron has the entire set of original factory documentation (including advertisements, score cards, schematics, "mail in" slips, and more) and operator notes/tallies for the play meter across many many months, with dates. My Gottlieb Wild Life has the operator tallies as well.
Quoted from xTheBlackKnightx:$250 in quarters because the owner did not have the coin door key. It "subsidized" the purchase nicely.
The lesson here is never do "favor" to an owner by drilling the lock while negotiating the sale. It happens more often than you think. Take the machine, ask no further questions, and go. Especially when you hear jingle jangle in the cabinet.
I pity those who "repair" the game at the seller's house. Great way to get your price jacked up a few hundred dollars. Leave the fuse holder checking for at home, people!
Quoted from Frax:Not in my game but on my game...there's an Alladin's Castle metal number plate attached to the cabinet. Game couldn't have been in one of their arcades for very long at all, it basically looks mint.
I just picked up a game (I haven't posted about it yet) that has a plate on it from some funland place in Memphis, Tennessee. It will be cool to track down and see if I can find any pictures... maybe even one with the machine in it! Longshot, but will be fun. It's really crazy how much these things travel, the machine came to me from Connecticut. I have so many machines (arcade included) with different markings, that even if I picked up decently locally, they came from states I have never even been to before and definitely not the state I picked them up from, sometimes my house is even closer to their "original" state than where I picked it up from! My furthest is my 1972 Williams Super Star pinball machine which somebody re-imported from it's original home of Sweden/Denmark where it spent its entire coin-operated life, with coin entry plate and markings to match. Really cool stuff!
Does your plate have a city/state on it or just that Aladdin's Castle markings? Very cool.
Quoted from vicjw66:Sex tape of asian woman, probably Korean early 20s and white guy in his 30s.
Thank god you watched it enough to figure out this detail
