I just won this .. what do you reckon ?
« on: January 30, 2012, 09:08:57 PM »
Geez .. didn't expect to get this ..

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/290661270574?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

shouldn't have bid as I am out of room .. oh well , I think it should clean up OK  but maybe I paid a bit too much ?

What do you reckon ?

I gotta stop this addiction  *.*

Cheers guys .

I had put this on my watch list and had forgotten about it until the Ebay email reminder this arvo .
Thats when I had a good look at the pics and took a punt , so to answer your question Kev , no I didn't go and check it out (no time) .

The same seller sold another pin 18th Jan (Gottlieb soccer .. also not working) and that went for $1275 .

I just put in what I thought was a fairly lowball bid on this one.  #@#

Excellent pick up!! For Ebay prices this is really bloody good... i paid pretty much that for my HH in a private deal and i had to haggle HARD!!!!!

I might be mistaken also... but im pretty sure this was the 2nd listing for this machine???

Cheers guys .

Luckily I increased my max snipe bid by $50 about 30 mins before auction ended otherwise I would have just missed out by a couple of $$$ (which has happened to me many times)

The good news is I have heard from the seller and will be picking her up this Friday  #*#.

Looking at starting work on this game later this year.

I'm still amazed I snagged this one .

Excellent Gav .. would be much appreciated .. judging by the pics some touchups will be needed, but once I see it in the flesh I'll let you know via PM .. did the legs turn up yet ?

Cheers
