Not to play
Not to cherish
But to profiteer for some poor sod.

Yup you mean a £4500 R&B once the blown fuse has been changed :D

Didn’t the guy post on here for help to get out working?
No idea but I did message the guy and he said its at his mates farm in Lanchester and would have to take it to his home to have a look at it. I don’t want to waste his time unless someone is prepared to take whatever the outcome of a viewing even if that means offering him £100 or summit lol
 
Is this the same Rocky and Bullwinkle Wesley picked up for £500 off of FB the other day? Doesn't say anything about it being faulty, so I’m assuming he got it working?

The eBay user is called westle004.

Someone called Westie rather than Wes maybe given the bar sign in the snaps of his other listings and his Ebay placeholder
 
Tiresome anecdote warning

I got a lot of stick bringing r and b to pinball 2000 show because of its rep as all time turkey (i thought it was quite fun)

The taunts turned to gasps when they saw my £20 invoice. Now that was a great buy!
 
Did I ever tell you the story if how I turned down this game for £20 because I couldn't be assed to collect it... (was in better condition as well)

It will haunt me for the rest of my life :D
 
Notice new ebay rule so presume gaming board as well that games over 25 years old are free of restrictions.

Let's see how many 2016 game etc were suddenly made in 1997
 
Roller Games just been listed on eBay.

 
Early prototype, eh? What happened to the flashbulbs on the backbox insert board, then? The large holes for them are there, but they're not. And I thought that prototypes had red lamp pcb's under the playfield, whatever their size. There is only one switch fitted to the upper stage of the Atomic Whip kickback, rather than the two implied by the double-length slot, and shown for prototypes.

Additional - the ipdb entry shows a prototype, where the drop target decals have a Blue background and a White skate. The playfield artwork also differs, on the 'scoreboard' showing the team names, a lightshield, and the 'design team' information. The display panel is a mixture, though. It has the Williams 'W' symbols on the speaker grilles, but the W-I-L-L-I-A-M-S spellout letters are yellow rather than the early games red.

At an asking price of £2,400, the sign lower left on the display panel probably applies; 'MUG (Root Beer)'

Indeed. It’s not a prototype. Rollergames seemed to come with more variations than a lot of games. The mashup of coloured wire forms being the most obvious. There was a great website that detailed it all but I can’t see it now.

It’s a fun game , great sounds and 80s vibe and one I sought to own for ages - then found the game quickly got old at home , the rules are pretty shallow even for a Sys 11 game. Feels like there should be more - I think I read Williams pulled the plug on it and it was released unfinished ??

That Rollergames was my first pin and I had added the 5 lit drop targets.
So not prototype etc.
 
Opinions on the creech and RoboCop on eBay?

Robocop overpriced?
Creech will hit 5k?


 
That’s the 3rd time that particular Robocop has been relisted in the last month.

As for Creech, who knows with eBay. My guess is it will finish somewhere between £4k and £5k.
I'm guessing 5.5k as although it's stock, the playfield looks great and has a working green hologram.
 
£4600 in the end for the creech. Honestly not bad. Was it on a short bid duration like 3 days or something?
