the games going over the side, are nothing to cry about. They were really picked over. Some games are worth nothing. There have been games i've been offered for free, but were to far gone, I was even worth the hassle of trying to get it out of their basement. Not every game is savable. Especially if it's fluffy from water.

I dunno. That video really makes me kinda sad. There must have been something of use in those machines. At least the legs and playfield junk.

So I ended up getting another Xenon machine minus the boards and backglass for 500 bucks. I took the playfield apart cleaned it put it back together and it plays like a dream. Im really happy with the playfield as well. ha ha thats why i got it! being populated and in better conditon was a plus it even had the original red tubes that covered the gi bulbs and plastics were amazing. Someone did put a big chunk of mylar in the middle It doesnt seem to be a good job but Im going to leave it alone. there are some wear spots and i just want to get everyones opinion on what they would do.

someone got $500 for a parted out Xenon? Someone scored. Fully working it's hard to get $900 out of one.

Thanks man it was pretty awesome. The guy has another one he's selling but with backglass for 600. Ill be selling my old playfield complete, backbox and cab for like 350

if it had the boards, you should have taken the $600 one. Doesn't hurt to have an extra set of boards sitting around or future projects or to diagnose problems in the future.

#62 11 years ago

Yeah it didn't have the boards, and since I already had a backglass I felt that it would be nice to leave it for someone who needed it more. Now I'm kinda kicking myself cause I could of just bought boards and sold it as a complete machine with my playfield. Doah!!!!!!!

Hindsight is always 20/20, Giz.

Look on the bright side, you did good!

Congrats on getting an improvement on the playfield.
