Hey guys, first post but I've been lurking these forums forever...
So I've been looking at getting my first pin lately, and I found a Bally Paragon.
It's a 3hr drive one way so I haven't been out to look at it in person, just wondering if you guys think its worth the trouble...
The seller has owned it for 15 years, but 7 years ago it broke and has just been building dust in his basement.
He said the upper left flipper blew and took out a few fuses, he disconnected all the connections to the flipper and replaced the fuse, but now all the game does is light up.
No sound, no play, no coin up
The play field looks in pretty decent shape, from the pics I can only see a little bit of wear starting by the super bonus lights in the middle.
The back glass looks to be a A.
The cabinet is a C or at best a B. the red on the cab is still a light pink but not gone.
He was asking $1000 , but I may have worked him down to $850... And who knows I might be able to get him down further if I do end up taking the trip...
Just wanna know what you guys think... Honestly I think if I end up going I wont be going home with a empty truck. So stop me now if you think I should pass.
Thanks.
