Up for sale today is my Cactus Canyon pinball machine.  This collectable game is among the most desired pinball machines of the modern day and with only about 900 produced, they are getting harder and harder to find.  This is a gorgeous domestic game that has been restored and I have owned for less than a year.  I am selling for what is probably the most common reason of all – I need money!  If you question that motive, look at some my recent feedback to see some other things I’ve been selling lately and maybe that will help paint the picture.  Anyway, getting back to the game, the playfield is in excellent condition and it has been detailed to a very high degree, including some touchups and careful cleaning.  The ramps, plastics, and decals are in beautiful condition with only minor imperfections.  The cabinet is in excellent condition with no fade and any blemishes have been expertly touched-up.  The original coin door is in excellent condition and has been refinished.  BRAND NEW playfield glass and DMD display have been installed in the last few months!  See below for the full list of what has been done to this game.  This Cactus Canyon plays lightning fast and is really a lot of fun!

    * Any burned bulbs and coils have been replaced
    * Fuses checked for proper type and value
    * Cabinet cleaned inside and out
    * All glass and glass channels are cleaned
    * BRAND NEW playfield glass
    * BRAND NEW balls
    * BRAND NEW dot matrix display
    * BRAND NEW shooter ramp
    * BRAND NEW mine hole protector installed
    * All playfield lamp inserts have been cleaned
    * Playfield has been detailed and polished
    * BRAND NEW sling shot plastics installed
    * Fresh black rubber rings installed throughout
    * Probably other stuff I’m forgetting at the moment!
    * An operators manual and schematics are included

Bid with confidence from a member of the eBay community since December 1998 and with 100% feedback.  This is a no reserve auction.  Also note that I am not accepting returns for this item so decide carefully and ask questions.  I will ship to continental 48-state US addresses via North American Van Lines.  The head of the game will be sheathed on all sides with flat cardboard then shrinkwrapped to the body with cardboard and padding in between the head and the side rails.  All of the small pieces like the balls, leg bolts, leg levelers, head bolts and game manuals will be bagged and placed in the coin box and shrink wrapped to the game along with the legs.  Then, the whole game will be sheathed in thick cardboard and shrinkwrapped several times on all sides so there is no movement during shipping.  Note I would estimate the shipping fee to be about $400 and it will vary with your address.  If the actual cost is less, you will be billed less.  If it is more, you will be billed more.  You are welcome to pick up the game from my home in Philadelphia for no charge.  I'm not happy to be selling this game as I wanted to build a small collection of prized pins, but I just can't afford to do both that and a few other things which are more necessary right now, so I must sell.  Please realize that I've owned this game less than a year and do not know its fully history.  It is also over 13 years old and is not flaw-free.  However, having said that, "throwaways" of this title sell for the price of my starting bid and considering all the recent work put into it, I think its fair to say someone will be getting a great game for a great price.  Thanks for looking and good luck.  Please only bid if you have the liquidity to complete the transaction within 48 hours of the auction's ending.  Thanks again for looking and good luck.

Please note that I will be on vacation from Wednesday 3/21/12 at ~7AM EST to Sunday 3/25/12 ~9PM EST.  This auction ends Saturday, 3/17/12 and payment should be rendered within 48 hours of the end of the auction as listed above.  If I receive payment the day the auction ends (i.e, the 17th), I should be able to have the pin on its way (if shipping is required) by the Tuesday the 20th, provided North American Van Lines can get a truck to my house on such short notice (2 working days).  It is possible -- depending on when payment is received and 'clears' and also depending on North American Van Lines cooperation and timing -- that the pin might possibly not be shipped until Monday the 26th.  The item is a 10 day listing and since bids have been made I cannot reduce the duration to 7 days, though even if I did the timing of the vacation would probably still be problematic.  As I said North American Van Lines might not even have a truck in my area for days after the auction ends and payment is received so none of this may even be an issue but in fairness I wanted to disclaim all this up front.  Thanks very much and good luck.

I also believe I forgot to mention that the game is 100% operational, has no error messages, and all components of the playfield and gameplay are operating as they should (i.e,. the 'mine door' opens and closes, all the switches and lights work, etc. etc.)  Thanks.

Hi there.  I'm sorry to keep adding these revisions but I recently had the opportunity to play a really nice Medieval Madness for the first time in while (I previously owned an MM).  Its a great game and we all know how well that title plays but, I've got to be honest with you, I really enjoy the game play of my CC just as much, if not more, than the MMs.  I'm being totally 100% truthful here.  I only mention this because I know there are about 5 times as many MM's out there and thus for those of you who are bidding (or who intend to bid) who may have never played a CC (which is possible with only about 900 units out there), I can honestly tell you that I think you will really enjoy it.  There are some really cool and unique play features, such as the timed 'pop up' drop targets (i.e., the 'bad guys') and the moving train.  I really thoroughly enjoy this game and will be sad to see it go.  Anyway, I just thought I'd share that.  It also was really nice playing MM again, but I definitely like my CC just as much and frankly probably a little more.  Good luck to all !!!!
