Gottlieb Pioneer

[Steve2010]

Here's a blast from the past on Ebay.

Any opinions on asking price?

[Ric]

it is pick up only from Melbourne.

$1,400 is not a bad price but you cannot tell much from the pictures.

There are better GTBs from the era however

[Strangeways]

Hard to tell from the pictures, but it "looks" to be in good condition. Ask for more pics, or ask for his location and if close-by I can have a look.

$1400 is a good price for this title - if it is a solid 8/10.

My favorite EM is Spirit of 76.

I reckon $1400 - $1500 is good buying for this title ... IF .... it is in good to excellent condition .

It's a great game to play . Nino mentioned above his fave EM is "Spirit of '76" which is the same as Pioneer just it's the 4-player version .

Did the Pioneer sell and if so how much?
I have one in the back of the garage that is packed up as I don't have room to set it up (Mrs Bossninja wont let me move into her side of the garage).
The backglass on mine has suffered from sun fading of the red colouring. Playfield is generally OK but worn just above the flipper area. This was one of the first machines that I was able to fix - the bonuses wouldn't count correctly. Pulled the stepper apart, followed Shaggy's guide, and presto!
When I bought mine, it had the schematics still inside. If anyone has a Pioneer and needs the schematics, let me know.

Great game, he may get the 1400, but 1200 would be spot on for it.

I'm thinking of selling my Pioneer. See my post in Pinball Trader - For sale -  Possible Pioneer for Sale
