Title: WTB Junk Midway Coin doors, need a couple
Post by: Dragonman73 on June 07, 2017, 10:34:50 am
anyone have any junk bally-midway coin doors FS?

I would need two-three, non functioning and something I can clean up and repaint preferred to save on some $$$ as these will just be cosmetic. Building some midway cabarets for my home and wouldn't mind having some sort of coin door for an authentic feel.

Shipped price to AR 72472

Thanks again

what happened to the price of these. Ive seen two or three listed for 225.00 on ebay just for the midway coin door unrestored. Did the price go up that much or is it a scalper.

Yeah I seen it too when I was first looking for coin doors, way too much money for used

I ended up getting a pair from someone and paid $100 shipped.....and they were missing the coin mechs on the back and needed to be completely refurbished (rusty rusty rusty). I feel like I overpaid but I didn't have much choice...I wished a company (not an individual) reproduced these and were available to buy ready to install. I'd pay more for something that looked new and ready to go.

Even though I got the two I need, I would still be interested in any more for future cabinets

there's a midway coin door on ebay right now that doesn't look too bad a shape but it's missing coin mech. Think the bid is at 37 dollars right now. At least restoring it shouldn't be completely awful.
