Hahaha. That's pure gold. I had to copy the description for all to see.
One of the rarest pinball machines to ever be produced ... only three of these machines are registered and in known existence (see international arcade museum website... this would make number 4 fully intact machine / we have NOT yet registered it... you are the first to see it. ) The first Elvis pinball machine was not created until after 2001 because of rights held by Graceland technically this pinball machine should not have not been produced and by today standards would fall under copyright infringement. these machines are very simply built and are pretty easy to work on. Keeping that in mind, plan on bringing out a professional the first time you set it up... have them service it and show you the basics if you are unfamiliar with these. It has something minor going on with the lights on the backboard since I took it apart for cleaning. Something minor, possibly a fuse. It also needs new rubbers on the flippers and maybe a couple rubber grommets. The flippers aren't flipping and i think thst might have something to do with the battery ... pictured. Simple stuff. Everything is here, original and good vintage condition.
I love how he says, "something minor" and "simple stuff", but yet he cannot seem to fix it. What a joke! LOL
He is probably seeing how many people are checking out his ad and thinks he does have pinball gold... 
In pretty sure the description is tongue-in-cheek. Kinda clever actually.
Or he's an idiot, you decide.

So whaddaya think?
Either the seller is a complete scam artist or, and I think this is the case, he's echoing whatever the guy who sold it to him said. He has a pretty high seller rating, so I'm thinking he got sold a bill of goods.
