Took a ride to the country yesterday and picked up.

I made a 2 hr trip to the country to save another gem in a storage bin. It was listed as a golf game. Called the guy to ask questions about it and he told me it had two screens and wasn't sure if it worked or not. Plug had been cut off. I asked if it was a Red sit down type of game that sorta looks like a box? He said yes. I told him I would be there in the morning. I show up at his business and he takes me to look at it. Indeed it was a Red Tent with Ladies Golf on one side and Men's on other. I get it home after stoping by ELUTZ's place to get a new plug and she fires right up. Both screens are burn free and look way better than my current Red Tent. The coin counter had 511 on one side and 2127 on the other side. My old machine has 50683 on one side and 55392 on the other. So does anyone own a Red Tent with this low of a coin count? I was shocked. This thing is going to clean up nice. I will post more pic's after I get it cleaned up and put in it's new home.

Did it not come with the base? Its strange to see that people are collecting those red tents. I use to bust those up for the monitors all the time. $10 games at the auction.

Yes, it come with the legs. I took them off to clean them up. $10 for a Red Tent? WOW. I can't even find chip sets for less than $20.

$10?!? Wow! Great deal!

It looks even better than the one I just picked up. I haven't taken a chance to look at my coin counters, but I'm guessing they're higher than those figures.

Congrats!
 
I would love to get a nice red tent someday. It's a shame so many got junked. Maybe thats why the price is higher now.
