I just posted a nice Stargate for sale:
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/for-sale-stargate-for-sale-in-purcellville-va
This is not the one I just sold to another Pinsider. This is my neighbors pinball, so technically "For Sale By Neighbor". I restored it for him several years ago and it has been lightly played in his basement for years. A relative needs to come live with him and he needs to clear out the basement.
I am picking up a Bram Stroker's Dracula out of a home in working , nice condition. I'll post pictures later. It is in the Hagerstown area if anyone is interested. I'll probably put it up for $2,500. Call me if interested. If I still have it on my truck and you are in the area or my way home I can deliver. 703-431-5470.
I will check it out totally before moving it.
Michael
I fixed it several years ago when I went out to fix. I got it all working fine back then. I haven't seen it since. Will see it in an hour or two.
Here are the photos of the Bram Stroker's Dracula. I may keep it but at the moment up for sale for space and cash flow. Big thanks to bigd1979 (Darin and Katie) for helping me get this out of a very awkward basement. It was also great to see bigd1979's collection! Very impressive. I never saw Congo before and it is great.
Reposting my Bram Stroker Dracula. Thought I had a pending sale to someone in PA but they found a game closer.
I bought a Hurricane with grand plans to restore. I don't have the room. I posted it for sale here: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/for-sale-hurricane-project
It is a project. I did some of the work to get it working. As I say in the ad, it needs to get a connector rebuilt (or the wire moved) on the GI for one of the back box strands, it needs the flippers rebuilt (which should always be done anyway) and it needs a new ferris wheel motor. There is one wear spot on the L insert. I am asking $1375.
Quoted from n0s4atu:Doesn't it have a hole on the bottom right as you look at it that allows you to reach in and manually unlock it? I'm sure the new owner is loving it. They're fun.
Usually they do. This one does not have a hole in the bottom. The side holes have grills so I can't squeeze my hand in. It has a small hole in the back but have been fishing around and just could not get it open.
I was going to donate it to the church's silent auction. But I don't want to be responsible in any way for this. A friend on pinside asked for it. He can probably pick the lock and have a great toy for the kids. So it works out fine. Thanks
I have a Johnny Mnemonic that I want to sell. I need the space and would like to eventually find a nice Data East Star Trek so I can own all 4 Star Treks. (That is the sign of a collector.... Not sure I really want the game for its playability, I want it as a "trophy" so that I have all 4....)
Johnny Mnemonic $2,500 100% working. All LEDs. Even fade on the cabinet but looks nice. Located in Purcellville, VA.
Re-Love It Consignment Shoppe in Purcellville VA has a Gottlieb Crescendo for sale for $100. I am posting here as a favor to the owner. If you are interested contact the store at
540-751-0707
www.reloveit.com
[email protected]
Quoted from burningman:Quick thanks to Mike for posting the Crescendo....wife and I were out yesterday and I casually mentioned to her that there was a pinball at Re-Love It. We stopped by, had the truck with me, and grabbed it. Got it running last night with just a few issues to sort.
Thanks Mike!
2015-10-24_15.45.14.jpg
I forgot about this and stopped into Re-Love It today and they thanked me for helping them. I am glad you got it and got it working. Enjoy!
I lowered the price on the Stargate from $2000 to $1800. This is a pinball I have in my house but belongs to my neighbor. He wants to sell it. I convinced him to lower the price. This goes 100% to him so I am doing him a favor so please don't ask me (if anyone is even interested ) to lug it here or there or bend over backwards to make the sale.
Is anyone looking for a Gorgar? I am most likely going to pick one up on Saturday. I'll have more information and better pictures then. I think there may be corrosion but will know more Saturday. If interested, please tell me. Would you be interested before I try to fix it or after I get it working?
I looked at the game today. The back box artwork has many cracks and in places the lights were clearly shining through. On the playfield there were wear spots that were very nicely repainted. But I decided not to buy it.

For sale: Johnny Mnemonic in Purcellville, VA $2,300. 100% working with all LEDs
Additional info here:
http://purcellvillepinball.com/JM2015.html
(My "retail" price is $2,800. Offering it to people that can work on these for $2,300. This is the come to me and put it in your car/truck and you don't need to call me if a light bulb burns out price. I will not deliver at this price or meet you half way to heck and back )
Quoted from beelzeboob:So I'm allowed to buy it at $2800 and annoy the shit out of you for weeks afterward? Sounds like a deal!
Ha! I have really cut down "selling to the public". It is just not worth it Actually this statement was for when someone saw both prices and wanted me to deliver. Although I no longer offer a warranty with games to keep the price lower and more competitive, I am a wimp and still stand behind all my games to ensure they work.

Also looking for a nice Flintstones in similar condition if anyone wants to trade.
I just restored a beautiful Demolition Man. It is currently not for sale since I like it. But I posted my restoration and over 300 photos that may be useful to someone.
Someone called me in Purcellville, VA, Charlie Zarow, 703 973-7858. He has a 1974 Bally Amigo that he would like to sell for $125 or so. It kind of worked but the ball got stuck in a saucer. I told him to try cleaning the leaf switch. He wants to sell it. He will send me a picture tomorrow. If you are interested in this game, please give him a call. He said it looks good.
Thanks
Michael
I mentioned the Johnny Mnemonic I have for sale a few weeks ago but forgot to post it in the market. Maybe there is someone new looking for this.
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/for-sale-johnny-mnemonic-williams-1995-2007
$2,300 in Purcellville, VA
Quoted from lurch:Give Mike a call purcellvillepinball.com He had one not too long ago, though im not sure if he was going to keep it for his personal collection.
I have a STLE but I think that this is becoming my favorite game right beside or a bit in front of STTNG. So currently not for sale. But if you do get one, ensure you buy the ramp protectors (see https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/stern-star-trek-alpha-beta-quadrant-ramp-protectors) and this vengeance mod (https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/star-trek-stern-vengeance-mod-chashing-leds). There are other great mods as well. Of course, get the Cliffy protectors.
I will be picking up a Gottlieb a Black Hole next Sunday. I got most of the main playfield working except two bumpers that I need coils.
It will also need vuk coil replaced on lower playfield to kick back up. Will be asking $800. Nice cosmetics and dusk spins.
I might get a Funhouse. Overall looks good. Batteries corroded. Trap door needs to be fixed. Looking for $3,400 as is. I'll post it for sale once I get it but want to see if there is any interest. Pickup only on Purcellville Virginia
Quoted from sohchx:In person that was a really nice machine. Just needed shopped out
The Funhouse I am getting is out of a home. I think he said the last 15 years (but it could have been 10). I don't know the history before.
The cabinet has some dings but is in nice condition. The play field has some wear spots where the ball drops to the left in lane, plunger lane (although I didn't think much) and at the top under some of the ramps.
I am hoping that the battery holder can be replaced and solve the issue. But I am usually never that lucky. The trap door does not close.
When I return to the house I will take detailed photos and quickly see if I can see the issue with the trap door.
Otherwise the display was bright, the play field looked good with very few insert bubbles, and the game played well
Someone in Chevy Chase MD contacted me wanting to sell a working Gottlieb Volcano for $550. I don't have any pictures or any other information on this game. He is being relocated. I just sent him an email asking if I can give his name to anyone that is interested. I assume he will say yes. If you are interested, I will connect you.
Thanks

I repaired an Addams Family in Oakton, VA in January. The family wants to sell it. They are asking $6,000. It has the credit dot. I checked the error report, it is the left flipper EOS. So either a wire came off or the switch needs to be replaced, most likely. All lights work except the super jackpot light is burned out. The Hit Cousin It decal is missing some on the insert. Otherwise in nice condition. They are not set up to be in pinside. Email your name and phone number and I will provide it to them to call you.
Thanks
Michael

I emailed eith the owner of the game and she asked me to lower the price to $5,300.
I may be getting a Star Trek Next Gen and an Austin Powers. Is there any interest in these games? I do not know much yet, but the Star Trek may have a problem with the cannons. I think the Austin Powers may have board issues. I am trying to decide whether I should try to restore to sell the STTNG or sell as a project (I already have one). The Austin Powers is a game I have never owned (but worked on) so may be nice to get it working and enjoy it for a while before I sell it. This game is "supposed" to be in very nice cosmetic condition.
Is $3,000 a good price to sell each?
Thanks Michael
Quoted from mbelofsky:I may be getting a Star Trek Next Gen and an Austin Powers.
Thanks Michael
A friend that has wanted a sttng forever (but failed to ever mention it me) twisted my arm to restore it for him. I'll confirm that he actually wants it before I do anything. But I won't get this game until the end of the month and I know very little about it so far.
Quoted from Pinphila:I sold an HUO AP for 3k back in the fall and it sat for a month. There is another on CL modded for 2600 and it hasn't moved. I think Closer to 2k with the issues of the game is nice. Fixed and nice i would say mid 2s.
STTNG- if nice, I would pay 3k for it easy.
Good luck
Thanks for the info on AP
Posted Austin Powers fully working for sale for $2,500.
https://pinside.com/pinball/market/ad/34905
Available in Purcellville, VA.
A little off topic but can anyone recommend a local (northern va) person to clear coat a playfield? It is used so Mylar would need to be removed and possibly touch up. It has already been touched up before I bought it
Quoted from TaylorVA:Brian Dendis is the only person I know in NoVA doing it. Goes by Prowlerman.
Thanks. I contacted him. He doesn't want to remove mylar. Yes. I have seen his work. It is great.
Here is the Star Trek Next Generation I recently bought for more than I originally thought I would pay. I am offering it as a flip for $3,800 since I do not want to restore it. I have done so many over the years that I just do not feel like doing another one right now. It is rather nice and working 100%. DMD in really nice condition. There are 3 small holes in the front as shown in the pictures for a prior lock bar.
http://purcellvillepinball.com/STTNG2016.html
I already went through it and fixed all problems as shown on my web page. This includes:
* new power cord since existing was frayed
* new sliders on the back
* cleaned cabinet
* two wing nuts to hold the head on
* new batteries
* new receiver opto board (GLM)
* new left flipper button board (Rottendog)
* new trough jam protector (Pinbits)
* fixed broken wire to switch 38 in left cannon
* new black pin cab leg protectors and black bolts.
Additionally, I have a complete new plastic set (29 pieces) for $200 and a 7 piece plastic protector set for $25 if interested.

I just picked up a working World Cup Soccer. I am offering for sale as is for $1,800. Otherwise I will buy all the parts and do a restoration. Cabinet in nice condition. Battery corroded but separate from MPU so it looks like the holder needs to be cleaned. J120 and J121 GI connectors should be replaced. Needs a new shooter rod. Coils work. Display nice. Most switches work. I have not looked for broken wires yet. Available in Purcellville, VA. I will not hold it until Christmas while you are driving through or such. If it stays in the house for more than a few weeks, I will restore
I played a few games. Spring on right flipper needs to be replaced. Goalie switch not working. Door test switch should be replaced. Enter works. Right works. Escape works if you press it sideways. Left does not work on the test switches. Has coin door lock/key (1382).
It originally had a back box lock and no key but I found a key in my stash of 1000s of keys that works.

Is there any interest in a mostly working (they say a flipper bat is broken) Data East Star Trek for $1,600? I asked for pictures but will try to sell for a friend if it is as nice as they say. I will go see it this weekend.
The reference to my we site has prices for the game as is and fully restored. I assume anyone here will want it as is 100% working and restore as much or as little as you want. The pinside price is posted in the ad above, ignore the website price. Prefer pickup. I am not going to any shows or driving anywhere but to work and back. I am not really interested in trades at the moment.
I am looking to buy a game and want to see if two of the games I have for sale on my website (retail to people that will pay for a working game in great condition that will continue to work) for a lower price here. Basically at my cost of the parts. Labor (sadly, as usual) would be free
Demolition Man
http://purcellvillepinball.com/DM2015.html
$2,800
Austin Powers
http://purcellvillepinball.com/AP2016.html
$2,800
I will not post them on pinside for sale since it will confuse the issue for my regular customers. But I donate monthly to pinside and would simply donate the appropriate fee if they sell here.
I am not looking for a trade. I am not looking to drive it anywhere. I am not looking to deliver it. I am not looking to wait five months until some other event occurs. Just testing the waters. Yes, the prices are more than others posted, but they work 100% and they are fully restored as explained on each listing on my site.
I also restore antique slots machines (from 1950s and before) if you want one.
Thanks
Michael
Quoted from yzfguy:Isn't that kinda what you just did?
Yes, but not as a market place ad. If this is not allowed, I will simply remove. Of course, people can find anything anywhere. Just a little less likely to find it in a posting rather than a marketplace ad.
I am picking up a Williams Cyclone tomorrow in Alexandria. I fixed it up a few years ago and remember it being nice. I will have pictures tomorrow. If it is as nice as I think, I'll be asking $1,500. If you live between Alexandria and Purcellville when I drive it home tomorrow (about 1-2pm), I can deliver.
Thanks
Michael
Really nice cyclone.
https://pinside.com/pinball/market/classifieds/ad/39685
Don't know how to nicely link on my phone. Driving home from Alexandria to Purcellville if you want it delivered.
Although I really like Monster Bash, I am not sure I love it. I bought this game in 2007 and restored it back then and sold it in 2008. I bought this game back in May 2016 with very little use over the past 8 years. I did a really good job restoring it this time with LEDs, Color DMD, professionally repainted cabinet leg areas (as shown on my web page) and repainted area above the Dracula Track. I am not sure I want a game as a "trophy". I want to enjoy playing it. So testing the waters... The great thing is, if it doesn't sell, I continue to have a wonderful game.
For people here, I can go down to $9,500 which puts it more in line with others.
A Bit off topic but does anyone want this candy dispenser free? I do not have the keys but assume you could drill out and use in your house or such? I fixed a Pac Man last night and the restaurant gave it to me to get rid of. I will not ship so only good for people close to me in the Purcellville VA area.
I can't upload a picture but it is plastic and has 3 areas with M&Ms. it is basically 3 6" wide gumball type dispensers on a plastic body and stand.
Pictures here:
http://purcellvillepinball.com/candy.html
Added over 7 years ago: This has been given away. Thank.
Taken. No longer available.
Off topic: before I offer a Christmas tree to strangers on FreeCycle, I thought I'd ask people I know first.
Free: working 7.5 foot Christmas tree in excellent condition. Prelit with regular lights and multicolored. Comes with remote. We haven't used it in several years due to travel but assume it is working fine.
Just too heavy for wife to handle in her own if needed so we bought a new lighter one.
I'm home most of the afternoon working on the new tree if anyone is interested.
Tree, stand, remote but not the bag since we will use that for new tree. (This was over $400 when we bought it new do it is nice.)
Thanks

I just posted my 1979 Bally Star Trek for sale. I am asking what I have into it which is $1,700. It has a new Alltek MPU ($200), Driver board ($150), lamp board ($100), Pinscore LED displays ($275), and all LEDs. It also has new bumper caps and rubbers and plays 100%. It has the original playfield and backglass. The pictures show my two vinyl banks (Spock and Kirk) but they are NOT included.
Michael
I just picked up a Big Guns. It is dirty. The displays work. Left flipper needs to be redone. Some switches out. Battery corrosion. Trying to decide if worth fixing or put it up for sale in the Marketplace. I played it years ago and I enjoyed it. I just think if I restore it, I will do what I usually do and put more money into it (not including time) than I can sell it for.

Purcellville, VA
I just posted a Last Action Hero for sale. It needs a new drop target reset coil - weak and sound is resetting. I fixed up all the other issues that I had time to work on.
For the Last Action Hero above, I spent the day at work thinking about it and realized if it is resetting, it is not getting power. I spoke to a friend that stated that the sound board has a 5 volt watch dog circuit (similar to WPC boards) that if it goes below 5 volts the sound board will reset.
I fixed the sound problem. 5 volts was not coming from the power board. I reseated the connector. Sound works fine. This connector that someone else added had 5 rows where the top row was burnt. I realized they were not using this top row and simply spliced wires to the existing wires coming out of this connector.
Once I replace the coil, I should have a fully working game. I will probably take it off the marketplace and sell it "retail" for Christmas. Since it will take that long to sell. (I will replace the connector with the correct one if I do. Power board looks like it was also previously replaced.)
So here is your chance to get a mostly fully working game for much less if you know anyone that wants this.
Oh, the drop target reset coil is a 23-800. I should have some to replace.
I will probably raise the price $50 to cover my time, add an allen wrench so you can move the head, and this coil.
Thanks
Michael
Quoted from StrangeSubset1:If for some estranged reason you decide to part it out, let me know . Parts are really tough to find on this one.
Just one connector and maybe one power board away from getting this working 100%
It also has manuals.
I have other items for sale if you need them like complete fluffy setband uncle fester mod.
Just posted my beautifully restored Demolition Man for $2,800. It's time for some different pinballs in the house.
More spring cleaning. Various legs for sale. $10 or $8 for two or more sets. Looking for local pick up only.
More interesting items found. I haven't really seen this before I bought this (for $25) years ago.
I posted some items for sale. I was finally able to get away from work so I will be going to Allentown. So items could be picked up on Saturday May 6.
I posted some translites, used legs, NOS Contact black glass, and a shot map poster for TOM.
I also have new Ultimate MPU boards, some new Rottendog boards, and try to post some other items that may be of interest.
I have been to York several times. I usually sell in the flea market during the pouring rain, so decided to simply go to York and be a spectator last year (and buy a NIB Hobbit). I have not been to Allentown Pinfest yet. I hope to meet some of you when there.
Quoted from dhard:Is Lester, Festers long lost twin
I think it was actually called "Lester" But they do look alike
Quoted from Colsond3:Is this a for sale thread or an eBay store?
Just bustin chops.
I thought about that. But this is basically spring cleaning of my basement closet. I have a few more things to post. But once I post these, i "close shop." It will not be a store where I constantly obtain more junk... errr treasures to sell.
I thought I have compiled some interesting stuff over the years.
Happy July 4th weekend. A long time customer gave me a 1974 Williams Star Action. It will need to be restored. I have the playfield glass, legs and lock bar. Free to a good home.
First to call with the soonest actual pick up time gets it. 703-431-5470. Located in Purcellville va.
I can't load up pictures but it looks okay.
Michael.
Quoted from Jesterfunhouse:That is awesome of you to pass this along to someone! WTG Michael! I hope who gets it restores and gets it back up and running.
Thanks. The Star Action will be picked up in a few minutes by someone.
I originally posted at $7,000 but really want $6,500 (plus the fee). I usually end up adding items to the games as I am waiting to sell it which brings up the price. At the moment, I plan to sell as is.
I priced out what I would add to this game (estimate) if I were to do some work myself:
Cointaker LED kit $200
Cliffy protectors for the 4 areas mentioned in the ad $50
From Marco: about $250
Flipper return guides
2 yellow posts
Skill shot assembly 04-10335
Skill shot decals 31-2546-4
Swirl ramp (if the one crack makes a difference) A-20626
Taken : I have a friend in Ashburn whose husband has a broken golden tee. I believe it needs a new monitor. She wants it out of the house tomorrow. (Her husband agrees. ) is anyone interested? It is free. They have a walk out basement. Husband can probably assist.
Michael
I just came back from vacation and replaced the 3 IRL 540 transistors on the magnet board (and the three 3 amp slow blow fuses) and the magnets now work. I believe the game is now working 100%.
I just posted a hardly used documented HUO Pirates of the Caribbean. It looks brand new.
I may be getting a Twilight Zone. It is nice but will be unshopped and no mods. It has a couple of switch errors that I could probably adjust or just let the buyer fix it while restoring. Would there be any interest at $5,500 as is? I'm trying to price it to sell if I get it otherwise I will do a full restoration. I will list on pinside to ensure I pay them for a sale.
It looks like right side of cabinet and front will not be faded. Plastics and play field look good from the grainy pictures I received. I will be working on a deal after Easter.
Trying to sell my Junk Yard.
After Allentown, I think I really like Dialed In LE (and know that there is one for sale near me) and really LIKE Houdini, but not sure I love it....
Will post later but wanting to test the waters on my Houdini. I like it but not sure I want to keep long term. Will ask $6,800 with blades and target decals.
At this price will also include the framed backglass, framed mini play-field poster and I think I have a framed flier.
Thanks
Michael
I may be getting a working Star Trek Next Generation next week. Anyone interested? I do not have photos yet. It is basically nice. I'm sure it has some scratches on the cabinet. Playfield nice with regular lamps. It is working 100%. I recently fixed the right cannon. Turns out someone greased it years ago. Just cleaned it up and worked great. I will ask $4,400 as is. I'll post it in the marketplace once I have photos.
May have this sold but posting just in case. Local pickup only in Purcellville VA
As I stated before I added the official ad, looking for $4,500 assuming pickup at my house and HUO sold as is since it is working perfectly.

A few months ago, I fixed up a Twilight Zone for a customer near Culpeper, VA. I replaced the MPU, driver board, right flipper button board, VUK plunger to gumball (broken where the plastic attaches to metal rod), a few coils, and adjusted switches to get it all working. He wanted to play it a while and then wanted to sell it. He thinks he is ready to sell it and will ask $7,000. Is anyone in the area interested?
He states that once in a while the ball is not coming out of the gumball machine when a ball goes in. This sounds like an intermittent switch issue that was not occurring when I was there. But want to provide as much info as possible. Otherwise it looks great and plays great.
Thanks
Michael
Quoted from Rdoyle1978:This should get snapped up fast. But he better fix that switch issue if he wants $7k for it!
YeaH. It’s really clean and just about perfect. It’s not worth it for me to drive almost 4 hours round trip to fix. But if someone knows pins it’s probably just an adjustment since it happens once in 50 times or so (he says).
I just picked up a HUO Metallica MOP LE. It is original (no mods) except for the 13 (out of 15 I think) flashers I changed from incandescent to LED. (I just didn't have time to take off the plastic to get to the others from the top of the playfield.) It is #333 of 500. I am considering posting it in the marketplace (or donate appropriately if there is interest here first). I am asking $7500.
I posted my nicely restored Theatre of Magic on Facebook classifieds and my website for $7,900. (Need to update price on my web to $7,900 later.)
I want $7,700 for it if anyone is interested.
http://purcellvillepinball.com/TOM2017.html
I’ll post later on pinside and donate appropriately.
(If you also want my HUO Houdini and TOM as a package deal, I may be tempted to free up space.)
No longer available.
I will be picking up a Twilight Zone this Sunday if weather is good. I have no pictures yet. I know batteries are bad and assume mpu corrosion. Also assume it will need to be fully worked on to replace rubbers and leds if desired.
I plan to sell it for $5,500 as is if it is in as good cosmetic condition as I hope. But if you are on my travel path from Woodbridge back to Purcellville on Sunday, I could bring it by for $5,000.
Is anyone preliminary interested in this?
Sold. Thanks
I have a customer that has decided they want to sell their Black Rose rather than fix it. I will work on the donation portion separately. It will need board work. One switch diode needs to be soldered back on. Lower jet bumper not working. Otherwise in nice cosmetic condition on playfield and cabinet. He is looking for $1,750.
Email me and I can send a few photos and get you in contact with him. He is in South Riding.
Thanks
Michael
Lowered price to $7,000 firm to see if this sells. If not, doesn’t hurt to keep it.
I did note a small area to left of trunk entrance on Trunk broke off. Waiting for December run of the “invincible trunk” if I still own it.
Any local interest if I posted this at $6,650? Or $6,300 without the color LED?
If I can get the game I’m looking for, I’ll let it go for this. Pick up only.
Happy Father's Day!

If interested, the first person to PM their address, I'll send it
A bit off Pinballs: I was fixing a pinball yesterday near Waterford, VA. He has a C.C. Harvey Player Piano that needs work but wants to give it away for free. It has six rolls. He said it worked Friday but yesterday it turned and keys moved but no sound.
If you are interest PM me.
Free: Japanese Token slot Machine with tokens. Missing the door lock so you need to replace the lock or tape the door shut. Game name is Thunder. I was given it today to give to someone that would enjoy having it. Available in Purcellville, VA as is.
Added over 3 years ago:Given away
I'll post tomorrow but is anyone interested in a World Cup Soccer? $2700. I got it all working this evening. I will post an ad tomorrow with photos. It definitely needs a shop job since rubbers need to be replaced. The usual plastics are broken. The ramp has been repaired/glued at the right just above where the two parts connect. The diverter plunger assembly spring is broken (A-16636) and needs to be replaced ($4.70 part). All switches and coils work. Remote battery holder added.
I wrote this in the ad, but it is true for me. Pinballs are like puppies. If I bring it home and it hangs around for a while, I don't want to sell it. I think I just about convinced myself to restore it myself. I did replace the diverter plunger just now and it works 100%. I removed the plunger assembly for the top free kick hole. It had caked on grease that I cleaned off and now also works perfectly.
I should be picking up a nice Star Trek Next Generation later today. I’ll post it in the marketplace. It has an issue on the left side, probably cannon or vuk associated to optos or coil. I will price at about $4500. I’ll have photos later. This will be available in Purcellville,VA.
This is the same World Cup Soccer I posted a few weeks ago. I decided to go over the top to restore it. It is beautiful and if it doesn't sell, I will have a great game that is beautifully restored.
I don’t really expect to sell the game on pinside. When I do sell it, it will be to someone not on pinside that wants a beautiful machine that works 100% and doesn’t have the time or skill to get the game to this condition.
Of course, they may also decide to simply buy a brand new game.
I knew very well when I posted this that I would get feedback that it’s too expensive. But I restored it for me and this is what I wanted this game to look like.
Quoted from PinballT:Saw this game in person. It is Beautiful!
GLWTS!
I know this is off topic here, but I would be interested to get your thoughts on my "explanation" of my restoration. I posted a long comment here:
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/for-sale-world-cup-soccer-114#post-6010976
Quoted from TaTa:I have to agree as nice as the game is this would fall in line with those people with HEP restored games. Those that do normally want that game in their collection for life and it's something that they've always wanted. So it's probably best for the seller to hold on to it like you said until somebody comes along that has to have the nicest WCS in their collection
Exactly, this game will stay in my collection until the right person comes along that wants one. It will most likely be someone not on pinside that wants this game, in this condition turn-key. I am not concerned about keeping this game. That was actually the intent to do such a restoration. I want to own it and enjoy it awhile. If it doesn't ever sell, then it will be a game to give my grandchildren in a few years.
Sunday or Monday I will be posting my HUO Ghostbusters Premium with LED Color DMD, Stern Topper, Shaker, Side blades, Back Alley Creations slime on display, under coin entry and plunger, Stern GB plunger, Ecto-1 lighted, plastic protectors, some of the Cliffy's installed and others as spares, green super bands from below the bumpers down to the flippers, center post (removeable), pinnovators subwoofer board and connector, and other mods. I also lowered the side ramp by 1/4" to make the ramp more doable as posted on the GB forum. Available in Purcellville, VA and will ask $9,000.
Quoted from andrewket:Tempting. Seems like a bunch of GB’s trading hands recently. What does everyone know that I don’t?
For me, it took several years but I’m actually consistently having good games and going through a lot of the game. Just time to free up a space for another game. It is always a great game if it doesn’t sell.
Free locally. I have a set of 4 three wheel coasters in a triangle shape where the leg leveler goes in the middle. Never used since I use sliders and my pinball dolly. Pickup in Purcellville, VA.
Free: My World Cup Soccer original ramps. They are too big and bulky to ship. But if you need locally, they are free for pick up. They are dirty. They have cracks that have been fixed up. Available in Purcellville, VA.
I am only interested in local sales and pickup as is. But I posted this totally refurbished World Cup Soccer before and got roasted for the price (as I expected). But I will try again to sell it at what I have into it at $5,000. If it sells, I will donate appropriately to pinside. If it doesn't, I will simply keep it and enjoy it until it does sell.
Here is a detailed description of the new parts added and the work to refurbish it. I know it is selling high and most will not be interested. But if you know of someone that needs a totally working, totally refurbished game, here is an option. (Wouldn't it be nice for once not to have to buy a game - especially NIB [which of course this isn't] - and not have to add Cliffy protectors, LEDs, super bands, etc, and just set it up and play it?)
I ordered and paid for and received an extra
Avengers Infinity Quest Game Blades 502-7085-R2 $80
Deadpool Lil' Deadpool Bash Toy with spring 511-1954-00 $50
Before I return them, is anyone local to Purcellville interested in these?
I may be getting a Twilight Zone in the next few weeks that I repaired a few years ago and has been working. But probably now has one switch issue. I will be looking at it but I don't want to spend the time to get it 100% working if this is all it needs. I am thinking of posting it for $6,000 Firm if anyone may be interested. I do not have photos yet but it was in good condition before. If it sells through pinside, they will get the donation, as usual.
I just received a call from someone in Maryland that has a Twilight Zone and an Indiana Jones (Wms) that they want to sell. They are not on pinside, but if it sells I asked them to donate. They are looking for about $7000 or best offer for TZ and $8000 or best offer for IJ. From talking with them the batteries need to be replaced and I do not know much more. If you are interested, send me a PM and I will provide their info.
UPDATE: I think I have provided several people to her that someone will follow up and buy them.
I will probably be picking up a nice NBA Fastbreak in a trade in the next few weeks. I have seen the game and need to get it. There is corrosion on the MPU right below the batteries. Just wondering if anyone is interested in this game for $2,200 (and I will donate to pinside) or if I should fix the board (and then add LEDs and everything else I shouldn't do) and keep it awhile.
There are a few people interested and I have them on a list. Thanks!
I just picked up a decent haunted house. There is some wear on the playfield. The boards look good. It turns on and starts a game but does not pop out the ball. When I took it apart the ball was in the hole left of the upper playfield.

Pinball machines are like puppies. If you take them home, they find a place in your heart. I was going to flip if I didn’t need to take it down to my basement but I just did.
It turns out f4 8amp sb fuse was blown but the bridge rectifiers were good. I replaced the fuse, I powered it up, and it played great! I have never had a “it’s just a fuse” problem. I’ll keep playing it to test but everything is working. I will probably still sell it but want to enjoy for a while and only sell locally.
I picked up a Non-working Haunted House a few weeks ago. I replaced a fuse and it has been working nicely. It has wear where the ball comes out of the three holes into the basement, entrance to the attic, and where the ball comes out of the left center kick out hole. Player two display is missing a digit. I’ll post a listing later with photos for $2,200.

I may be getting back a HUO Lord of the Rings. I bought this game November, 2006 (manufacture date 11/13/2006) NIB and added LEDs and some Cliffys and sold it in 2012. I'm buying it back and will post for $6,500. It has no other mods than the LEDs and some Cliffy protectors. The person had a small contained fire in his home in a different area and the game had some smoke smell that was cleaned up by professionals. It was not involved in the fire nor damaged in any other way then the smell that has been removed professionally.
I will not get this for several weeks, but if you are interested, please tell me.
Michael

A customer of mine has a Taxi,pinbot, and SuperStar that he wants to down size. If you are interested, pm your name, email and phone and I will get the owner in contact with you.
The taxi works but the display is coming in and out, the sound and voice are also coming in and out., the board is starting to look like corrosion needs to be cleaned up. Asking $2,300.
Pinbot is working overall but would just need a good shop job. Left end of stroke switch needs to be replaced which causes left flipper not to work. Asking $2,200.
Williams Super Star $400
I have pictures if needed.
The games are in McLean,VA.
Added over 3 years ago:All have been sold. Thanks.
Someone just called me from Fairfax county wanting to sell a working Bally Strikes and Spares.
He does not want a lot but he did paint over the cabinet to match the room it was in. (Yes I cringe at hearing this.)
My goal is to get this directly to someone that wants it rather than flipping it.
It has to move upstairs through the Inside stairs.
Pm me if interested
Added over 2 years ago:Update: sorry. I provided one person as a reference to this person and they decided to give it to their son. My lesson is to ask if they really want yo keep it and give it to family before they offer it to me.
Here are 4 HUO Stern games in excellent condition. I have decided to thin the herd. I love all the games but I do not have time to play them. I need to get down to a manageable size and play the ones I have left.
I am picking up a game Saturday for myself. The person also has a Star Trek Next Gen. He sent some photos but I will check it out in person and get more photos. Initially I can see the bottoms of the slings are broken in the usual place and the cannons probably need some work. Otherwise it looks good and it boots and plays. Not sure what he will ask for the game. But if you would like more info, pm me and I’ll get more and get you in contact.
EDIT: This game has probably been taken.
I have two new old stock never used Rottendog boards.
MPU011C/MPU004 For Data East/Sega and System 11C games. $400
MPU011A with is basically the MPU011C/MPU004 with the add on board MPU011A for sound (I believe) $425.
I have photos and will post but trying to sell locally first.
I am considering selling a few games. I will post officially but want to see if there is any interest.

Off subject: I posted on Facebook marketplace my IGT Game King video poker slot with two screens, 120 games including ultimate poker, spin poker, deal/draw poker, blackjack, and several video poker games like Coyote, bill/ticket acceptor, prints out tickets, extra paper, stand, keys for $2200. Also have battery backup and comfortable swivel chair that I would include.
I lowered the price. I realized I was including a plastic set I bought in my cost but was not offering it as part of the sale.

$1800 if any one is interested.
Quoted from mbelofsky:I have 8 regular sized used good play field glass $5 each or $30 for all.
Since I will not move glass to Indiana, does anyone want this for free (or is that still too expensive )?
Otherwise it will find its way, sadly, to trash pickup day if I can’t find anyone that wants it.
Quoted from 27dnast:Wow... didn't know you were moving. Looks like you're pulling out of the hobby?
Temporarily. It is just too much of a hassle to move 10 pinball machines, 5 slot machines, and a Game King Video Poker machine. We do not yet have a house in Evansville, Indiana (moving closer to our grandchildren). Insurance in general only covers external storage at 10%. So we cannot buy enough insurance to properly insure all the games. I have a P3 on order that I will have delivered to Indiana later in the year when it is my turn to get one. I am looking at this as an opportunity to buy games I have never owned before and start fresh. However, if prices do not stabilize, I am not sure I can (or want to) afford new games or even pre-owned games.
I plan to continue to fix pinball machines in Evansville. I will have to be "seen" in the office for my real job every 4-6-8 weeks so plan on being back often and maybe I can do a few fixes when I am in the area. (We'll see how that works out.)

I still have 8 regular sized play field glass available for free. I can’t take it with me to Indiana (just too much of a pain). Located in Purcellville, VA. One may or may not be spoken for.
Quoted from TikiTilt:Why do you ask?
Sorry for the delay. I found someone. I asked because someone asked me if I route and I don't (plus I moved to Indiana). So I needed to find someone who I could refer some business to and I did. Thanks.
A friend of mine has a Fire! Playfield they would like framed. Can anyone recommend someone that does this type of work? I know he’d like the inserts lit with LEDs but also like the holes for assemblies and such lit or covered in a nice way. He is located in. Arlington but could ship or get the playfield to you. Thanks!
I have a friend in Herndon not on pinside that has a nice Sea Island bingo. I think he wants $950. I can get you in contact if interested. Thanks Michael.
I have a customer who is moving and would like to sell a Monopoly. It is in very nice condition. Fully working. I sold them the game about 2005/2006 and have been maintaining it for them. I have a few photos. They live in Ashburn. Walk out basement with a slight hill to the front. They are asking $4500
They also have a 20 year reunion stand up Ms Pac Man/Galaga/Pac Man.
Email me if interested and I will get you in contact.
