The cabinet is a 10 according to the seller but to me the gold colouring is way off the original. I saw this listing on Gumtree last week.

"Price is firm & well under market value so no offers please."

I don't understand why people spend the $ on the wrong legs. It reminds me of the clown selling the rebadged KISS games with the "highly polished factory buffed door"..  !*!

Seen this machine before this seller got to it.  It had nice original legs that were freshly powder coated, playfield has mylar but still has some wear.  Apron needs a repaint, plastics all good.  Seller is asking double what he paid  #@#
