PICTURES NOW IN THREAD !!!

Guys,

I need to get serious for a minute... I need your help.

I have no choice, but to sell my pinball collection.

My father as suffered a major stroke and will be moving in with me and my family in Cambridge. As such, I have to build him a room... And the only place I have, is the game room. I need the space... and I need the money.

I am very passionate about this hobby. It's something I use as  daily stress relief and a Fall/winter fun projects. I even was about to embark on an Environment Disc of Tron project... but I am forced to put everything aside until life figures out what else it has in store for me.


I'm going to be selling all of my games. A small price to pay to have my father close to me

Pinball :
Stern Nascar $2400  (Only one left !!!!  PM with an offer !!!!)
Williams Space Station $1300 (Gone!)
Gottlieb Super Mario Bros $1200 (Gone!)
Theatre of Magic $3500 (Gone!)
TSSP (Gone!)
STTNG (Gone!)

Vid :
DK3  $400 (Gone!)
Tron $1300 (Gone !)
Star Trek (Captain's chair) $150 (Had it working for a few days...power supply is dead) (GONE !!)
Mame Cabinet (missing a monitor right now...) $250 with SlickStik (MAKE AN OFFER !!)


The machines are for sales individually... Please PM me offers if you are interested...
I'm open to offers, but please don't be insulting. These are hard times for my family and getting rid of my gameroom is only making things worst.

Thank you for reading.

I'm sorry to hear about your father. Strokes suck big time. I hope he has a speedy and full recovery. He's lucky to have family like you willing to take him in.

That's tough. A friend of mine's father had a debilitating stroke and the doctors said he wouldn't be able to walk or talk again. They were wrong on both accounts. He was never 100% but, eventually, he walked with a cane and could communicate.

I'm really sorry to hear about this.  If I can make a suggestion (with all due respect in this hard time) you should post a price on this stuff, it will help cut down on stupid offers and just let people know what you want.  If it's firm, it's firm, but it will make your dealings with others start off on a better foot.
Good luck with the sale, and I hope for a speedy recovery.
Daniel

Thanks for the wishes guys....and good advise Daniel...

I'll be back home this weekend... I'll post pics of each machine and I'll attach a price to those who are still around. Just don't have the head to deal with it right now.

Thanks guys. Means a lot.
Pat.

Patrick, I am so sorry to hear that. If I can help in anyway. Let me know... I can store whatever you don't/can't sell and they will be here in a good home till you are ready, OR if you need them out I can store/sell for you.
I have lost both my parents so not to be rude, I wish I was in your place. I don't want that to come out the wrong way....

Sorry to hear this Pat.  I am sure its very tough for you since I could see your passion when you picked up Space Station from me recently.

For anyone interested in Space Station...its a sweet game.  Nice and clean with partial LED's installed.  New parts, ramp protector, PinLED displays and lovingly shopped by Cooke.   A great buy for anyone.

I feel for you....   Your a good person stepping up when your family is in need!  I got that vibe when we met.

I'm also sorry that you have to sell your machines.  I know how hard you worked towards that perfect collection, and I know how I would feel if I was forced to sell mine.  Again, I feel for you.

Good luck to you and your father.  Hope recovery comes quick and allows him to maintain his lifestyle.
