Bally Fathom Pinball Machine
Price: US $2750.00

Up for sale here is the beautiful 1980 Bally Fathom pinball machine. I added the pictures I thought best showed the machine. I have nearly 70 pictures and two YouTube videos of it that won't let me link. If you'd like to check out the other pictures and videos, message me please. Here are the videos of the machine in action.


The condition shows in the pictures and videos. It has some wear and tear, but it's been in my family for over 20 years.It hasn't been used for nearly 15 years, however, but it does still work.


The back glass is absolutely beautiful. That was one thing we knew not to play with as kids, and it shows it. In absolute pristine condition. It has two very small paint cracks at the very bottom of it, but other than that, it's mint -- also reflected in the pictures. The videos and pictures were taken on 4/20/14.


The speaker works, and bellows "FATHOM" at start up, and it also says "Sea Nymphs approaching" or something of that ilk when the machine is moved while on, but not all of the sounds come from the machine.


Other things potential buyer should know:

• Some lights are burnt out.


• I have the blue bumper tops (and they are pictured in one of the pics) but the tabs are broken off, so they aren't on it during play.


• There is a crack across one of the plastic pieces on the right side of the machine. Again, it is noted in the pictures extra pictures.


• The key to open the back glass is broken off in the lock. It is still easily accessible though. (No it hasn't been pried, it's just a very easy lock to turn since the key is in it). There is no lock on the front of the machine where the coins are inserted.


• Near the flippers on the backboard, the previous owner had attempted to touch up some of the paint with his own work. Reflected in the close ups. That is the only spot that is touched up.


• At times, you have to use the reset button to get the game to work. It doesn't always start a game when the machine is turned on.


THIS IS A LOCAL PICK UP sale ONLY, IF YOU CAN'T COME PICK IT UP, PLEASE DO NOT offer. Winning buyer can arrange a time in the next few weeks to pick it up.


If you have any other questions, or would like any other pictures specifically, let me know and I will get them up.


Thanks everyone and happy offerding!
