Gottlieb Sinbad on eBay BIN

[MartyJ]

What was the BIN price?

$600

$600, Some people crack me up.
Why would you bid at $300 (and probably believe you will get it for that) and not just take the $600 BIN and run.
It never ceases to amaze me how some people will take the low bid instead of a very fair BIN, in the end they never win the item.
141 feedback bidder, should know better.

This machine sure looks dirty but have a look at the backglass, it looks very good from the photo.

What do you guys think it will sell for?
I think it will easily go past the $600 BIN price, maybe $1200??????

I agree 100%.  Looks like its been taken out of a shed or estate etc...Always a gamble but at $600.00 was a very fair BIN price.  I think it would have gone around the $1000 mark.

Someone just snagged it for $600. Seller was obviously impatient !

Definitely one of the better System 1 games, and that is a fair price. Spend $500 - $600 and you have (what appears to be) a bargain.

Well hopefully it went to a deserving member on here.  Glad the seller was reasonable.

fess up blair,do tell

Mmm well I think it went to a deserving member.  I was lucky enough to snag it at $600 after the original bidder was kind enough to retract their bid. 

Apparently the machine has sat idle in the seller's shed for 7 or 8 years.  Worth a gamble at the BIN price though and for once not too far away from me compared to the distances I normally travel to pick a machine up.

Well done.  Look forward to seeing some better pic's of it.

Hopefully a good pickup for you Blair . I doubt you can go too far wrong with the price  you paid for it.

Wouldn't mind seeing some pictures of the backglass, looked pretty good from the listing photos.

Well done Blair ! It certainly is going to a good home. I look forward to the resto thread and if you need anything, let us know !

Thanks guys.  Looks like I will pick it up on Sunday.  I will definitely take plenty of pics.

I might be on the lookout for a Sys 1 lock down bar.  I am sure there will be plenty more to source and do on the machine but cross fingers it isn't too bad.

[Strangeways]

Worst case senario - PBR has these - GTB-D16951 $28.00

[pinnies4me]

Great stuff, glad a member snagged this one, fun game, look forward to seeing what's under the dirt!!

Pretty certain lockdown bars from 1, 80 and 3 are interchangeable too.

Great price, hopefully it has a nice PF under all that dirt

There will be machines here but I don't know how many will be up and running though.  Hopefully I can get FBC and Sinbad up and running without too many hassles.  Too many projects.
