Title: Anyone know where I can get a Joker Poker backglass?
Post by: JD on January 30, 2010, 04:33:40 PM
Looking for a good 7+ to 10/10 joker poker backglass in Australia if possible?
Anyone have any ideas?

If you are looking to buy the pin in Newcastle you are not going to get a bargain. I spoke to the seller and some genius had called her and said it was worth $1200 to 1500. That is not the type of comment any of us buying pins wants to here.

It's not worth that without the backglass. The advert I have seen leaves a lot of guesswork so unless someone knows something more than I can see, I refer the castle comments "Tell him he's / she's dreamin"!

But that is what is prompting me.

Go for drive, and take some cash. I know a few guys interested in this machine, hard game to source (its a keeper title).

Those people really peeve me, and they prob have no intention of bidding either.

$1,530 was just over my bid and outside my value range for a machine with the credibility provided. Amazing that the missing backglass appeared on Ebay a couple of hrs ago too!

Havent seen too many of these over the last year! What an amazing coincidence!

Anyway, onward and upward.

Phew JD, you are so lucky to be outbid on this. Dont you get on AA as well? A guy went and had a look/posted its condition, described this thing as pretty bad internally.

Machine has major corrosion problems - powersupply is full of rust & "unsafe", plus every fuse socket, nut & bolt in the cab !
I would say that this machine has been sitting for a while in the salt air on a porch !
Playfield had plenty of ball swirl & corrosion,some harness wires cut, but no major wear noticed,a few cracked plastics, no backglass, boards need work, cab looked pretty solid !

Thanks EB.

Always a risk that needs to be considered isnt it.

Your favourite local grown yabbies are getting bigger rapidly! Will post a pic of the young generation progressing shortly in the right place on AP!

Due to the warm weather, our breeding program is thriving at the moment.

Good luck to the winner on the joker poker!

I'm glad too JD that you didn't get this as well, I read the description on AA before bidding finished yesterday ,as I had a mate keen on this one & it sound like a dud, so he didn't bid.
cheers Steve.
