FS: Gottlieb Pop A Card: SOLD

Post by Foo »

Posting here before Pinside.

FS: A nice players Gottlieb Pop A Card. I did a complete pf teardown shop job. All new rubber, flippers, posts, lane guides. Tumbled everything metal that fit in my tumbler. 3 coats of wax. Touched up the drop targets and put mylar over them. Decent backglass and cabinet. Front was repainted because the existing paint was roached. Pf has some paint loss by the right drop target bank. Looks like the clear is worn away from in front of the flippers too. The wood is fine...just the clear coat is gone... weird. I added LEDs behind the bg just to jazz it up a little too. Plays great. Has the envelope with extra score cards. Looking for around $550. Located in zip 53086.

Thanks,
Paul

If I hadn't just picked up a Dimension, this would be in my basement right now..... Fantastic game! For this price, there is a lot of fun to be had. Newer collectors, you need a fun add-a-ball in your collection.... this one will challenge you for sure... 2" flippers and no return lanes.... Aww man, why did this have to come up for sale now?!?!?

Congrats on the sale. I was thinking an EM would be fun to learn and work on and was tempted by this one. Oh well, maybe next time.

A good EM has excellent staying power. Easy to understand rules but difficult to do well on. There is a reason you see them in so many tournaments, they are equalizers.

Agreed. That's why my 4MBC isn't going anywhere soon! I need at least ONE game that I stand a chance beating somebody on.

Every collection should include at least one, and possibly an early SS. They do require a different skill set to master. So who is the lucky new owner?

I snagged this one. I'm excited to get an EM back into the collection! Thanks to Paul for being an easy guy to deal with, and to Tim for the assist!

That's cool Dave. Between this one and Flash, you got two ass kickers now.
