Looking to see what's out there for sale in the Bally early 80's camp.

Looking for Centaur (aren't we all, lol), open to Centaur II, interested in all conditions but leaning towards any "project" games or maybe those not in the best of condition as I enjoy resto projects.

Also interested in Vector and Elektra, or indeed really any pin's from that era including Williams, I'm kind of interested in building my Bally collection but really open to all, indeed I'm currently talking to a member about an 82 Williams game right now so certainly will consider options.

Anyhow, just poking around to see what might be floating around out there in the community. Probably can't buy all these games at once, but looking to buy a game on a pretty regular basis to build the collection so would be nice to start a dialog with some members.

Local pin would be nice (Phoenix,AZ) but willing to ship for the right pin.

Thx

Oh yeah there's also on my list, that's what the et al was for, lol.

I have a Xenon that I just finished a full resto on. Used to have a lot of these games back in the day but around ten years ago circumstances forced sale of them At the time I had a Centaur, Medusa, Spectrum, and a Fathom out of the Bally's of that era. Bought them back when prices were far less crazy, now not so much, ho hum... lol. It is what it is though and willing to pay fair prices and maybe there's some resto projects out there that some folks have that don't have the time to work on them or pre DMD's is just not their thing.

On CL, ebay, or on here? I've been doing US searches for vector for the past month and didn't spot those.

Hi Squeakman,

Thx for the heads up on the LA lead, hell close enough to driver over there, lol. Looks like I need to get a better CL search tool, mine obviously sucks, what do folks use? Contacted the seller, we'll see if he'll deal with an out of state purchase.

Tilt. I would also like to add a few 80's Bally pins to my collection. Also very much getting into the system 11 games now also. Would love to find a Funhouse. I would drive to Cali in a heartbeat to get a game I wanted. Good luck, I hope you find what you are looking for.
