Title: Best arcade score for me yet. Post by: bubbaganu on September 13, 2015, 05:51:17 pm I don't normally post my arcade finds here but this one was too good to be true.
I had turned off all my 'arcade finder' notifications a few weeks ago because I was full up on games and out of $$. But then a buddy who was buying a pinball off of Craigslist texts me and asks if I wanted a Space Invaders/Qix 15th Anniversary Silver Edition. There are no photos, but it works and it's priced so low that I can't say no, and he says he'll bring it to me. When it arrives, I'm am completely floored by it's condition: One owner, HUO, bought direct from distributor, and it's in near mint condition. There was still factory film on some of the chrome. There was also a bag of leg levelers unopened, and as I opened the bag my buddy asked to have 'a whiff of that namco factory air'. Haha. Total cost: $200, delivered.
