Free to a good home (Mark II)
« on: September 14, 2009, 09:43:28 PM »
After reading bossninja17's post offering a free MM I was touched and thought I'd chip in and help out another fellow AP member.

I'm offering 1 x wife with slightly too many km's on the clock but really good at moving pinball's. Cooking talents are a 7/10 and doesn't winge at all (when asleep).  %.%

Perfect to a good home, but person taking the offer must pay postage/freight costs.

Regretfully I'm in the market for a new one and need the room, Pinball God
Still loving my Metallica Premium

Making room for another pin?  Wouldn't that make buying pins a lot easier *%*

Does it come with the profanity chip installed ??   %.%

Let me guess ... You suggested you wanted another pin and she said  "it's me or a pin . Choose"  ....  Nice choice .  ^^^

Does she need re-rubbering?  Any globes blown?  Do you have any videos of her working?  (This will test the sick minds)  Can we come around and play her before we commit?

how sensitive is the tilt? is it set off easily or can it take a bit of crap before it goes off?
does it need re sleeveing  or are the shafts a tight fit
how many balls does it take? 2,4 or 6?
are the ramp shots easy or hard to get?
how strong are the flippers? do the give the balls a good hit or are they soft and spongy?
is the backglass easy to get off or is it hard to get to the circuitry?
are the schematics easy to read or are they hard to understand?
how hard is it to get the jackpot?
what year was it made?

i could go on forever <.>

Are the game rules easy to understand, or is it one of the really complex ones that you just cant figure out no matter how hard you try??

Is it set to free play or one of those ones that costs you a fortune $$$

but person taking the offer must pay postage/freight costs.

We're gonna need an idea of the weight to calculate the freight costs. According to you please, rather than her, I don't want it underestimated and getting a surprise at the end.
