Hello there, just putting the feelers out on this.
Basically I bought my first pin a few months ago, a Getaway HS2. It was a complete wreck (bad eBay description, lessons learned!) and I had a guy come in to bring it up to a playable level.
It currently is that but still needs some serious TLC: lots of bulbs are out, needs a new DMD, could do with a complete strip and clean to be honest.
Thought I would have the time/money to make this a project doer upper but have just not managed it. I just want a machine I can switch on and play and only needs small fixes now and then to give me a chance to learn how to maintain machines at a decent pace. I've just bitten off more than I can chew with this one.
So what I thought was that someone out there may want to take this off my hands for their own project, in exchange for one of their machines with cash from me going your way.
Will consider any DMD machine but have a preference for 90's Williams/Bally (except STTNG as have bought that as my second machine). Obvs needs to be in good condition but not bothered about mint.
I estimate my machine to be worth around £500-600 and is based near Reading, Berks.
I am a total noob so appreciate any help or advice. Will get some more detailed photos up soon but just testing the water first.
