Thanks guys. Pinsanity that ebay sale is interesting, thanks - I can't see when it was but if that machine was all working & as good as the photos then I reckon that was a pretty good buy - great to know these come up occasionally for this money.

Thanks too cowcorner - I've played a few games on Congo & like the artwork - but given yr assessment I'm crossing it off my list. Sounds a bit easy.

And have you guys seen the "collector's quality" MM on ebay? I think they are asking $16k (dealer).

Only a month old on that CV so it is a recent sale. I only got the email notification because I have both "Cirqus" and "Circus" as a saved search. The last ebay one before that was mine at $8k and it was collector quality with aftermarket mods, so anyone paying that kind of price point (8k) for a CV would realistically want something better than factory standard.


RE: The MM - overpriced for what it is. I could do a better deal than that on a ground up restored MM (new playfield/cab decals/plastics/ramp set the works) plus chrome trim/door and mods.
That's dealer pricing for you though.
