YES!  and we are talking $600 Canadian, so that’s like what?  $38 US?  Smiley

That's the most amazing bargain ever!!! $600 CAD = $485 USD... for a PINBOT?!?!?! WOW... I've never seen one in the past 5+ years offered less than $1,000 USD.

Congratzi! What area (major city/state) are you from? (I noticed your profile stated WINNIPEG)...

So where was the pinbot sold at? I'm curious how far you drove to get it as I'm in the same for the same machine (but not yours, i'm still saving up the cash!)

It weighs about 350lbs so you might need help moving it.

Yes, its a good game, but bally mcr is not easy to fix. If you get lucky, it will be an easy fix (battery acid damage on the PS) or a blown fuse. If you unlucky, it could be toasted boardset, bad power supply, and/or blown monitor. So as a first game, it might be a poor choice.

but if its a game you must have, when its fully working, its worth about $500-$800 game. Depending on your repair skill level, your going to put in anywhere from $40-$400+ just to get it running.

20 miles away only? Drive your truck/van over there and pick it up! Plus, I wouldn't wait too long on this, Spy Hunter's tend to sell quite quickly.

Holy shit snacks! I tried this search string and immediately found a "pin ball what takes a " and 24 hours later I picked up this beaut for $150

Good stuff indeed! That 1980 Williams pin in great condition normally sells for $925 (source: 2015 mr pinball price guide)

Fake. That hunk of frankenstein shit ain't worth $1200. I'd pay $100 if they're lucky.

Wasn't sure Bob was still shipping, or shipping very timely, so I hadn't tried his site. His listing "Replacement Video/Sync Harness $6.00" sure looks like it would work...

He/his site is most definitely in full-time operations. His staff is diligently packing and shipping out orders as fast as they can handle! Smiley

be sure to check out the real bob roberts site: http://www.therealbobroberts.net/parts.html

do a search on that page for "replacement video" and click on the links to see which connector matches up with yours! Smiley
