Deskription is also wrong..

"Built in 1979 and is the last of the wide body pinballs."

It was built in 1978 and Embryon, Space Invaders and Hotdoggin' were all produced AFTER Paragon.

From memory, Paragons started appearing in Australian arcades mid to late 1979. I remember playing Lost World before Paragon and that was probably late 1978.
If you don't remember the 70s then you were on drugs.
If you remember playing pinball in the 70s you were having a good time.
If you don't remember anything,  then read about it here,

Did not sell. Not surprised - the pictures were not detailed enough.

Anything came of this? Did anyone contact the seller to make a private deal or even look at the item?
Still loving my Metallica Premium
