Hi All-
Anyone know what the approximate value would be for a Gottlieb Cue Ball Wizard in average condition? Might need an adjustment/fix to flipper mechanism /spring and maybe cleaning/rubber/bulbs. Otherwise looks good.

I actually enjoy it. Not a bad machine. Hitting the cueball just right is challenging, especially when you have to move it aside and then hit the 2 targets with the pinball.

Thanks guys-
Just wanted to make sure I dont end up like the Pink Panther on Sparky's avatar!
I dont mind the annoying audio so long as the volume control works OK. So long as it is a decent players game. Wish I could figure out how to get Vpinmame working to "try" it.
I held my tongue in case you were selling it. You should really play the game before buying it. I played one in a bar with some buddies. We had a good time and enjoyed it. When I saw one come up cheap, I think $800, I thought "Great, a cheap, fun DMD game". I was right on the cheap part, but the game gets old real fast. I wanted it out the door within a week. Told awhile to sell it as well. I couldn't get my $800 back locally and ended up driving it to the States, but did get a good trade in the end.
Had one, it's not a bad machine, but if it's the only machine you're going to have, it gets old really, really fast. Gottlieb SYS3 machines are rock solid though once you've done a few minor mods to them. The prices quoted are about right, that's roughly what I got for mine. If you can find a copy of Microsoft Pinball Arcade somewhere it had Cue Ball Wizard in it. Probably not as accurate as pinmame, but a lot easier to make work.
