Tbh it was an odd day to end on, I know it's pay day but honestly it should have ended on a Friday when people let loose their wallets after drinking. 😂
Was looking at that Creech earlier, but unless I'm mistaken, the PF looked like it had a weired stain next to the left slingshot area?
It's weired when I was Jack Bar in NYC I was chatting to a guy there who's fav machine is CFTBL and he said in the states they cost mega bucks, but over here in the u.k they usually go for really reasonable prices? (Would've thought it would have been the other way around what with so many machines to go round in the states?)
Always toyed with the idea of having one some day, but that time has not come yet.

Yh they do go for mental prices in the states.

Mine I got cheaper but ending up spending more just to restore it. The ramps and mods accelerated the costs greatly for me.

To finish it off I do want to playfield swap it eventually.


I know it's just fade on mine but after spending literally thousands on restoring it I really should get the final piece sorted.

Beautiful art on those machines though, so defo worth putting the work in if you can - bravo mate 👍
 

Will be interesting to see where this gets to.....

One is the £3k one that has been on and off for over a year now.... And i think was further discussion on here...


Then another which is (IMO) Priced off the back of the one above...


And then the new one i posted above..... Which is an auction (Hope it makes it to the end to get an idea of True value!)

That one , better but has an issue, was also listed on Facebook/UKVAC at 3000 - he mentioned retailers selling NM for 5K - so think he has factored that in as well.
I was offered good money for my fully working one ...but not 3k good money :D
 
He seems to indicate its booting. If someone is lucky it *might* just be that either the 2 balls aren't in the trough or aren't registering. The game just won't start without them.
Who knows, I have had to get a new mpu from Jim for an 80b that had weird issues. If it’s had battery damage the mpu is probably scrap.
Then I bought another from him to bulletproof another, so have a spare working and another near enough working (if you didn’t hit the spinner it was fine😂)

But it would be sweet if it was just the 2 balls missing, this happened to me on my BK when I was fixing the spinner and it would not work after. Oopps.
 
Reminds me - i have one of Jim's boards in mine, however havent got it booting yet (and then moved houses!)....
Must get back to that...!
 

Just crying out to be saved....
 

One for the Gottlieb guys: Gaz Pound selling. Never ever seen of these for sale before.

looks interesting but i guess it could get boring very easily. one for a larger collection i guess?

Got to play this at the last monster meet in 2009 (probably that actual machine given how rare they are). https://www.pinballnews.com/shows/monstermeet2009/index.html

Fun to play and I seem to remember it being quite a challenge to get a decent score. I concur that it ought to be for a larger collection or perhaps a barcade.
 
That's one of my grail games but I wouldn't pay 5k for it, it's a massive machine too. And yeah it is part of a large collection in Witham, I don't think it would be a game for anyone with a small amount of games really
 
Decent looking Riverboat Gambler just finished on Ebay at £1800. No bids till 5 sec to go then a single bidder.
 
Brings back memories had this in my bed room when I was like 18 lol

Ha ha, I had a sound system in my bedroom in the Eighties on the estate where they filmed the first lot of Only Fools and Horses. I remember having a reggae MC in there doing an Eastenders ’chat’ to a massive bassline😂
My parents used to come in from the pub and pull the power from the fuse box, I remember going back to the estate in the late 90’s to get some weed for a mate who ran out and when I went into the dreads fiat I could see a twin15 W bin (speaker cab) that I had made in the 80’s sitting in the hall, my bro sold it to him and he said it was wicked😂
