Congrat's Dave...that's a hard topper to come by for sure.  Fox-N-Hound is on my Top 5 list for best Vision games....the game play and especially the sounds are very comical...kind of like "Looney Tunes".

Thanks guys!  I agree with you Jim, I think it's one of my top three favorite Vision, next to Shooting Gallery and Munsters. Now if all goes to plan I'll have the machine by the end of the week!

If you want one I think Jim @ Bettor Slots has one & he should be in your back yard. You WILL NOT find cleaner machines then what
Jim has.

If you want one

 :81-   Shhhhh !!!

Some of you guys may know this that have come to my shop.  I have this rule with my wife.....it's her rule....I am only ALLOWED   :37-  to keep 4 machines for myself at any given time....EVERYTHING else must be for sale.   :99-  It's a very hard rule to stick to sometimes when you are around so many cool game titles.  BUT, I found a LOOPHOLE that she has not figured out yet.   :97-  :97-  :97-  So what I do is put a slightly high number on the machine so that no one will ever buy it.

So you can imagine the dialog as it plays out here.... after a month the machine sits there on a stand the wife says "wow....I can't believe that Fox-N-Hound has not sold yet"....and I say "yeah I really can't believe it either....I just don't know what to do honey" (it's important you add "honey" and "dear" in a situation like this).  It's also important that you make them the decision maker so I add "Dear, do you think I should reduce the price by a few hundred dollars just to get it moving???" and after she thinks for a minute she always follows with "OH NO...that's way too much money for us to give up on....we need that....I know your trying your best dear (she ads "dear" as this point because she feels bad for me thinking I feel like a failure) ...just keep trying".

And so now you know.....

Very nice Jim :244- :244-......I will have the Fox N Hound on Friday I cant wait! Like you I will have a higher price on it also so it will be sitting around for awhile. Plus it will help that the machine will be at my house not the store lol. So unless a customer comes in looking for one it will be out of sight and out of there mind!

That's a funny post Jim... :96-
"Dear" and "Honey" are also two highly regarded words in my opinion... :72-

Say a person was to have a Fox n Hound Insert what would one be willing to pay for it, the guy bought it at the old prices off ebay last year, I have a 9" Glass Set (Non Vision) availalable

Given the rarity of that particular insert...personally I would pay in the $50 range for the insert alone or in a competitive auction situation on Ebay if it was topper as a whole, round top base, I would set the bid sniper in the $130 to $150 range...yes even in this market.  It's not like this is a Triple Stars or Top Dollar topper where there are a hundred of the out there available....there's very, very few of the Fox's.

That's a good price range, I'm sure ebay would bring that much. I know one I got out bidded on was Triple Double with cheese delux. I stopped at $140 and it went for $172.  Still wondering if that was someone on here because it was just between me and one other person (so which one of you took it from me lol) The Fox topper may be going up for sale as I measured today and the ceiling in my townhouse is too low and it wont fit on there.  :37- Now it's do I keep it for when I do decide to sell the machine or just sell the topper now.  :103- :103-

I'm lucky, my ceiling is 10 ft. in game room. I have room for anything.
If my Fox-N-Hound were a vision I would spend that kind of money for a topper. Mine is just a plain 3 reel - Not worth spending that kind of
money on.
