First off...don't use the "reply" email on this post...it goes to my
gmail account, and I don't check that one much. Send emails to: pmwolf
AT verizon.net if you want a response.

I'm getting ready to remodel the house this summer (including a plan
to TRIPLE the size of the basement arcade (currently @600
sq...feet)...and I'm putting in an elevator). Anyhow, I need to move
some games so they aren't in the way.

GAMES ARE LOCATED in Union City, Michigan...close to Battle Creek. I
can help with shipping, but I'd really prefer for you to stop by and
see the goods beforehand. I may be able to deliver to the MGC show,
but I can't promise anything.
******************************************************************
Pins
Cactus Canyon - $7100 - Playfield is in excellent condition, as are
ramps and plastics. Skill-shot ramp is brand new. Translite is
perfect, dot matrix display is nice and bright. Cabinet is in good
shape, but does have the typical issue underneath the legs because of
the decal wrinkling. (I do have cabinet decals available if you're
interested). The 'bad guy/bart' toy is in great shape, and all motors
and solenoids are working perfectly. Game is very clean, and plays
fine.

Indianapolis 500 - $2150 - Cabinet is unfaded and in excellent
condition. Playfield is fantastic, dot matrix display is perfect, and
plastics and ramps are very nice. LED targets are working, as are the
rest of the playfield toys. Game plays fast.

Junk Yard: $2250 - Prototype version. I haven't messed with this one a
whole lot, but it looks pretty good. Looks like a couple switches need
to be adjusted. Playfield looks great. Cab is nice, except for a bit
of damage near the coin door where the lock bar was. (I also have a
second Junk Yard that is available for $2350...it is not a prototype,
but it is in better overall condition (because the cabinet is
excellent).

Diner: $1650 - In nice shape...playfield looks great. Displays are
perfect, and the game works fine, although it is mostly unshopped, and
may need some tweaking. There is a bit of art that isn't perfect on
the back corner of the head, but the rest of the cabinet looks great.

Ali (Stern): $700 - Nice game in good shape. Backglass has some
flaking around the yellow "Ali". Cab is nice, and game plays well.

Funhouse (Project, or parts machine): $375 - No boards, no displays,
no ramps, no translite, no Rudy. I also robbed the flipper mechs, and
one rail on the right side. Other than that...it's perfect! (Fine..the
cabinet is fair, and the playfield is okay (wear spots at the very top
where the ball gets fired)).

Buck Rogers: $300 - It had German transformer/power blocks in there,
so I never got a chance to see it working. I finally got U.S. blocks,
but haven't put them in. There is NO WAY that I'll ever get to this
project in the near future, so if you want it, here it is. The
backglass looks very nice. The playfield is fine, but does have some
minor touchups. The boards look good.

Airborne Avenger: $100 - Complete. Playfield looks nice, as does the
backglass. This game will probably never, ever work....but it's a rare
Atari game. Part it out, or work a miracle and get it running.
******************************************************************
Video Arcade Games:
Millipede: Lighted trac-ball kit. Game is in great shape, and plays
perfectly. $450

Moon Patrol: In nice shape...great monitor and cabinet. Works
perfectly. $320

Space Duel: In very, very nice shape. Great vector monitor. $375

Joust: Works fine. Great "newer" monitor with no burn. $500

Operation Wolf 3: Currently not working. Looks great, though: $100

Outrun/Turbo Outrun: Both games are complete, but not working. $125 a
piece, or $200 for the pair.

Time Pilot: Works fine. Cab has full side art, but is damaged in the
front. Monitor looks great. $225

Battlezone: Complete, but not working. Monitor looks like it works (at
least, the neck starts glowing). $150

******************************************************************
Trade offers are welcome, but to be honest...I kind of just need the
room and money more than I need another game or two.

Thanks for looking:

Couldn't agree more. Space Duel is the best of the "Asteroids" series of
Atari coin-op games. Two-player games are just too fun!! Had almost as
much fun playing SD with friends as I did Joust when I was younger. So much
fun!

Love the 2 player action.

Yeah, I don't know what the deal is with Space Duel and the "lack of
love." Personally, I think the game is great, but I can never find
someone that'll go for a 2-player game.

If it doesn't sell at this price, I'll probably be happy to keep it
forever. (Although, sadly enough, it may get sacrificed to fix my
Black Widow...which just blew out its monitor).

LOVE Black Widow. One of my all-time favorites. I'd take the Time
Pilot but you're all the way out there in MI.
