Todays craigslist pick and other goodies found while there!!Read!!

Well I went and picked up a Defender cocktail today and I found some other goodies. The Defender is in decent shape and should clean up nice. I was expecting it to work but it doesnt, it comes on and plays sounds and monitor comes on and its just showing garbage on screen and lines. Im happy with the purchase and Im sure I can figure out whats wrong with it. The video board has batteries on it and it looks like the batteries are corroded, Im not sure if this has something to do with it. I also found a rats nest in it and the guy vacuumed it out for me. The funny thing is it was stored in a old trailer and we got it out and he loaded it into the bucket of his backhoe to bring it to his garage so i could load it in his truck. Like I said i am happy with it and will be nice when i get it working.

The other good stuff i found and he wants to sell but i have no room in my small truck for is really nice Omega Race, it looks great, shape is 9/10 but it plays blind, other than that i dont know anything about it, he wants 100$ for it, check the for sale section ill be posting pics in there. He also has Aztec EM pinball, partially work, we powered it on and the player 1 wont reset back to 0000 therefore not letting it start a new game, you can here the mechanics clicking on the layer 1 score but it wont go back. Machine is in ok shape, the backglass barely had any cracks in paint and barely any flaking if any, and the play field looked pretty decent, but only 60% of the lights were working. He wants around 200$ for it but is flexible. He also has strike zone puck bowling machine and just wants some one to make a offer on it. The guy who owns all this is a nice guy and a older guy around 65 or so but nice and live in backwoods in northern va. Again look for sale thread there will be pics of all 3 items.

Yes it did kinda look like a hold issue but like i said it had some corroded batteries on the video board, i will not know until i get home in about 2 weeks
 
i got a free ride on that, he lives in backwoods on gravel road and he drove me on it to his old trailer where he had junk stored
 
He doesn't have much more, he has a coin operated dart board but its got bad water damage at the bottom from when his basement flooded
 
So what was the deal with the Make Trax cocktail I held for you for a week and a half? You asked me to hold it for you until you got paid, e-mailed me again to make sure I hadn't sold it, set up a day to pick it up and then ignored e-mails and didn't show up.

I could have had it sold a week ago but held it because you were a KLOV member. If you change your mind that is one thing and I could deal with that, but have the common damn decency to at least e-mail me and let me know that instead of wasting my time.
