Sold Safe Cracker

[Julian]

Needing space and funds for incoming machine.

So am looking to move this beauty on, some of you will have played and seen it at league meets, viewing welcome, photos will be uploaded soon, just seeing if there is any interest.

It has quality repro topper and wings, loads of tokens, PDI glass, 1" balls (will also supply normal size balls), the very important (after market) playfield straightening / supports fitted, this eliminates any playfield bowing.
Quality LEDs fitted.

Bad points:
The pop bumper skits have chips in them, I have new skits just not fitted, will come with the sale.
The rope light is not fully working, I have a new multicoloured one just not fitted, will come with the sale.
Cabinet decal fade.

Machine plays great.

I'm looking for £5k or best offer.
May go to eBay at a higher price.

You'll laugh (or cry), I remember getting these NIB from NOVA (A big European distributor) when they couldn't sell them for £225 each, I used to strip the boards out and chuck the rest in a skip

Would be worth about £25k if they had been put in storage!

That machine was rescued by John Bud I believe. All works well believe it or not

 

[replicas]

Not John Bud, John Higgins rescued the Scotish Safe Cracker.

 

[Spandangler]

Ah yeah that’s the John. I knew it was a John

 

[Pharo]

I thought it was a champion pub he saved from a skip could he be lucky enough and saved two

 

[replicas]

Yep, John also rescued a champions pub from a bar basement in Edinburgh

 

[Julian]

Ok so here are photos, I have not fitted the wings as the game was in the line I've pulled it out to take photos all round but did not want to take the grommets out to fit wings.

I'll upload a video to Youtube tomorrow and post link.

p.s. notice the chubby finger pointing out the playfield strengthening bars these are not supplied with the original as such all Safe Cracker in time had warped (sagging) playfields, not this one.

But if you hadn’t done that they would be worth less now.
