Quoted from too-many-pins:

I didn't pick these up they were actually delivered to me and yes I did know what I was buying and I paid decent money for them. Part of the hobby for me is parting out "junk" machines and getting parts to people who need them. I love buying machines like this because there is no doubt they are for parts.
With that side I am actually going to try to save two of the six I bought that looked like this. There was a very rare Bally Black Jack (only 120 made as EM's) and a sought after Gottlieb Jacks Open in this lot. Since playfields are not as bad as cabinets I am going to transfer parts from those two machines into other cabinets.
Anyway - I though this post might put a smile on a few faces this morning after looking at all the "pertty stuff" other people post.

Doing this makes you a true asset to the hobby !!
