Title: New with Questions Post by: fergy0776 on December 09, 2009, 12:06:56 PM I recently received a Bally Continental Slot and im curious to what I have and what it is worth. It is in good shape with cabinet, has some working lights and all parts look to be present. The pull dose not work and I don't know why as Ive never worked with these machines. From what Ive found online I think this was built between 69'-74'. Any help would be appreciated!

That's a nice looking machine from what I can see in the pictures, although they are a bit small. There are several of us who have some interest in the older machines, and I always enjoy seeing pictures of other members' EMs. If you check Fox'sSlots eBay link you will get some idea of the prices that he asks for his machines. Title: Re: New with Questions Post by: FOXSSLOTS1 on December 10, 2009, 07:20:35 AM you have a model 847 - bally continental - these are a very complicated machine to work on for the novice. If the coins are not registering - can be numerous reasons - I think there are other feeds in NLG that addressed the coining issue which is a common malfunction for a bally.
I just listed a 10c version on ebay for $500.00. In better days the machine would sell for 800 to 1000. that was then - now? Title: Re: New with Questions Post by: fergy0776 on December 10, 2009, 10:04:48 AM Barry is that an as is price or a working price? I dont mind listing it on the higher end and wait a while for it to sell its a cool looking peice and It looks awsome in my play/game room. Stat Freek a bit small? I guess im not familiar with slots cause im almost 6' and on its stand it is taller then me!

You can upload much larger images, as long as the file size doesn't exceed 1MB each. |
