I've got the pinball bug once again, so it's time to let go of some of my nicer games. I'm in AZ, but I'll ship anywhere so long as you handle all the associated costs and make the arrangements for pickup (I don't have a truck, so it would have to be door-to-door).

I probably won't be able to post pics until Sunday, but here's a quick rundown of what's on the block in order to get the ball rolling. Prices are cash or Paypal gift (or add 2.9% to cover the fee if Paypal gift makes you uncomfortable). No checks. No trades.

***SOLD*** Tron - this thing is very very nice! Serial number 183. Solid cabinet with the exception of a crack in the wood in the middle of the back door. Repro upper and lower control plastics from TOG. Glass Encom marquee and coin door emblem from TOG (I'll also include the original glass marquee if picked up in person- which is also nice). Free play button installed on the coin door- but it's no longer necessary because I put in a free play ROM. Switching power supply. Nice monitor with very minimal burn. You're not going to find many nicer examples of Tron than this. I'll also throw in the light cycle (blue) and recognizer (red) toppers from gamestencils.com (but the recognizer does have a crack in it from where I glued it back together after dropping it. Doh!) if you pick the game up in person. Doesn't save high scores, but plays and looks great. I will miss this game tremendously. $1100.

***SOLD*** Star Wars w/Vectorlabs ESB switching kit installed - Upright version. Reproduction marquee overlay, CPO, and front panel art installed (some wrinkling toward the bottom of the front panel art). 6100 monitor. Original side art has some minor bumps and bruises (and typical red fade). Small wood damage to front right corner (don't believe it's water related as there is no swelling). SW and ESB both play great. $1000, which is less than what I've got in it.

***SOLD*** House of the Dead 2. Gorgeous monitor. Left gun trigger can be a little sloppy. Works good enough for me, but if you're a perfectionist, you may want to replace. Side art is nice, but there is a large scratch on one side (totally my fault when I moved it). Small chunk of wood missing from the lower left corner. Very cool game that gets a lot of attention with guests. Definitely a crowd pleaser. $550.

Shoot me a PM with any questions. I work afternoons/nights, but I'll respond as quickly as I can to everyone. I'll post detailed pics this weekend, when I'll have time to move games around.

I've received a few PMs (replied to) and will post detailed pics this weekend. I was digging through my Photobucket this morning, just to see if I had any pics of the games in there.

Here's one of SW prior to the new CPO being applied:

And here's the only one I could find of HOTD2:

Like I said, more detailed pics will be posted by Sunday.
 
Alright, I dug the games out of the game room, so here are some pics:

Here's that wrinkling at the bottom that I mentioned in my first post:

I'm awful at photographing vector monitors. Looks fine in person. The text squishes just a bit on the bottom, and the colors bleed ever so slightly in the corners. Other than that, the monitor is great:

A couple other things worth mentioning about SW. The marquee needs a new ballast or fixture. Everything's there, but it doesn't work. I loosely rigged up a cheap fixture from Wal-Mart to get the job done, but I'd pull that out before shipping. I wouldn't want to risk it coming loose and damaging anything. The other thing with this one is that when I picked it up in January, I made the mistake of pulling down on the panel just below the marquee, and it popped off (well... just the front of it). I hammered it back in, reinforced it with wood glue, and supported it with tape from the inside while it dried. I've left the tape on, just to be safe, since you can't even see it when the marquee is on. I've moved the game several times since then without issue, but it's something I'd like to be upfront about. It's been a solid machine since I've owned it, and has yet to give me any issues. $1100.

Now for Tron. The side art does have some nicks, but it's still very nice. The monitor takes about 15 secs to warm up, but once it does, it's excellent. I had a Tron before this one, and I grabbed this one specifically for its crisp monitor (and it's just an overall much nicer machine than my previous one). $1300. Pics:

OMG i love your Haunted Mansion stuff. Im a HUGE fan. i live in florida so im always there and cant get enough of that ride. are the head statues replicas from the ride or just go with the feel?

Thanks! The heads just go with the vibe. They move and talk to each other/people as they walk by. It's a pretty cool effect.
 
Damn, that Star Wars and that Tron are both beautiful. I wish I had the room for one or both. And you're probably just down the street from me!
