For sale, Gtb Atlantis, $575.


One of the hardest wedgeheads, IMHO.  Working 100%.  Average to above average BG, some red flaking but I've seen a lot worse.  PF is great on top 2/3, has wear in the bottom 1/3, but most of it is solid colour plus a fish head, probably not too bad to touch up.  Cab is below average, some numpty tried using bondo or spackle or something to fill cracks.  I've repainted the coin door, will do the same for the legs in the next day or two.  Has a Mr. Pin value of $900 if that's your benchmark.  
Just not getting enough play to justify keeping it, and could use the cashola elsewhere.  That being said, I'm always interested in another wedgehead project or not, and early SS machines too, project or not.
Pick up in Ptbo, come play it.

Thanks for looking, PM me,
Daniel

EDIT** forgot to mention, has some wonky lamp sockets in the backbox, I might have some replacements but don't know for sure.

Fun game. Dropping the whole target bank is a great feeling. More so is working the bagatelle for '9' then earning the Special shot. Not easy.

I picked up a Genesis not that long ago. Turn it on and the GI comes up and that is all. Probably just a fuse.

Fair warning - I pretty much had to disconnect the wiring harness to get his thing apart enough to carry it out of the house by myself.  Complete - but it will takea while to put things right.  Cosmetically - I guess it is ok, the backglass does have a midget, not much you can do about that.  Stop on by and pick it up on your way home from Creemore and leave the Atlantis here!

I might pick up a Genesis Project if the price is right.  Contact me.

Doesn't a fully working nice Genesis go for about $500?  That's a pretty weird trade offer.

- BUMP - and sorry Daniel for the intrusion.  But Atlantis is A GREAT EM game...I often get requests for it, just nobody riht at the moment....

I was just going on the Current Mr. Pinball listings for the game.  $600 is the lowest $800-1000 is typical.  There also seems to be a either a love it or hate about this game. So it didn't seem too far off. I brought it home, pushed it into a corner and can't see any time soon that I will get a chance to stand it back up and have a look inside.

Atlantis on the other hand...  The first game I was able to beat on occasion after reading the rules.  30+ years ago it was one of the big draws to get me into the arcade. No worries, I have a Lawman on the way someday.

Gotta love Daniel's tactfulness.  "Pretty weird trade offer" = "Hey, aren't you trying to rip me off?"  

You're one class act, McMean.

Fair enough, I'm just giving you a hard time.  But Atlantis is apparently $1200 there, so tell you what, shoot me another $500 and we've got a deal.

Can't do that, but I'll throw in another game, Gulfstream. That one I have seen go as high as $200 on Mr. Pinball, though mine is not nearly as nice.

Quoted from amona

Probably just a fuse.

It's always just a fuse.

Oops, I forgot to add the   after my fuse comment.  My troubleshooting so far has been:

1) Turned it on, it didn't boot
2) Turned it off and took it home.

Aside from occasionaly moving the legs off of the tool box they are sitting on I haven't anything with it since.  My experience with Gottliebs of this era is that I picked this one up and put it in the garage.  I am kinda looking forward to getting this thing running again and it sounds like I will have that opportunity!

It's also the closest thing to cash I own at the moment   Who would have thought that post secondary education for one kid would be expensive!

Yes, having a stupid kid is really a money-saver !!
