Quite a sales pitch
I agree with Pete - A "mint" game is a game that has had minimum plays. This is rebuilt - but again, falls short of the standard you would expect for a collector's piece. NONE of the hardware is polished on a "mint" machine - it is re grained (I'm starting to sound like a broken record)..
Drop Targets are not the same as original - They should be Tombstone style
Legs are not "hammer finish" - they are powdercoated, and if you want original color style - then you buy the repros from PBR (they are as close to original as I've seen). In fact, they look like the Bally EM style legs ( broader lip at the top end ).
No pictures of the Electronics - "It plays like new" - What does that mean ? Have the connectors been re pinned, Power Supply rebuilt - hang on - it's "mint"
Between the members on this forum, you would think that SOMEONE would know who bought one of the "mint" KISS machines (what are we up to, five or six now?). I know many collectors that are not on any forum and they don't know anyone who has bought any of these games.
A classic machine restored to factory should not need a thesis to sell it. The seller is good at writing the thesis, but the machine still falls well short of "original", and is definitely not "mint"
