Sold TAF

[shaunyboy]

some unexpected bills come in plus my kitchen is over budget haha.
somethings gotta give,told the kids it's the pinball thats going,it's only a thing and we can always get another one later on.
i had it brought in from spain.
it's NOT "mint" but i bought it to play it not sit and look at it.
kids have loved it and have asked if the next one we get can be TSPP.
it has had the cab touched up pretty much all over it and painted inside.
the coindoor has pesatas mechs but it's on freeplay so it's never bothered me.
there is some wear on the mansion,a couple of the window sills have gone.the previous owner has covered it in mylar so it won't get any worse.you can always put a mansion overlay on it.
whilst i've had it i've LED'd it and fitted dredds blue cloud and playfield mod.
the green light on the chair isn't working,the second e in greed is intermitent
it has had the main ramp changed to a clear one.
there are no errors on startup.

heres a short vid and some pics of just before i bought it.

it's going on ebay on thursday for 10 days to give it 2 weekends on there ending on the sunday evening.

it is what it is,
a working TAF that you can switch on and play.

£2500 firm.
i'll get some photos up tomorrow of as it is now as it's not in my house.
thanks,
shaun.

just noticed the 3rd pic up from the bottom isn't from my machine.

 

[Jumbosinbad360]

Would like to see what it looks like now..

 

[shaunyboy]

some pics of how it looks now.
some with flash,some without.

also to add,
the balls are new,
the slingshot plastics are new and i've rebuilt the 2 main flippers.









































i did a couple of videos but my daft son had his finger over the mic so theres no sound.
i'll do some tomorrow.
thanks,
shaun.

That looks really nice, much nicer than the dodgy Japanese re-import I went to look at a few weeks ago.

 

[Poibug]

fair price for a TAF nowadays

 

[scottydoesntknow]

Looks nice great price wish I lived closer as its very tempting to give up my sst hunt and buy a taf!

 

[shaunyboy]

thanks for the comments,
at least it's not getting panned lol.
maybe when it's on ebay tomorrow i'll get dissed in the ebay thread.
the ebay reserve will be £2575 to take the fees into account.
i paid £2500 for it,i've probably got nearer £2800 in it so at 2.5 i'm not making anything but i didn't buy it to make money on.
maybe it will go for more,have to wait and see.
here are a couple of vids done tonight,me playing,my son filming.sorry about his filming skills,
the sound doesn't go up and down like in the vid,must be the camera.

Looks good to me. This can't be for sale for long surely

 

[replicas]

Very surprised it is still for sale.
Fair price for a TAF in the current market

 

[RudeDogg1]

Agreed I'd have it wasn't for money and space
