inside....doh...I need to find my old atari and fix my pole position the
right way, like this guy, I was getting tired of the tear on the monitor

That TV is original equipment for Pongs. The game system however is not
original.

It does not sound like he butchered it himself from the auction
description. Didn't these just have bw tvs in them to begin with? Not
sure.

That still sold for less than its worth. I would be sooo pumped to get
that as it is for the same price local to me. I'd pay that for a nice
EMPTY cab.

Original Pongs had b&w tv sets in them.. he states in the auction the
original board is there, but a pong home system is wired in which tells you
the original board is bad.. I don't see the issue really..

The only major negative to that auction is the gigantic Midway coin door :)

Geeez,
Guess I missed the boat. I could have swore that I seen a Pong at the last
Milwaukee auction for about $100 and I thought that was steep. John, you
were at the auction...what was that thing? Was that a pong?

Is that the same one? Too bad, then, because I emailed the guy hoping he
had one original Pong knob that he pulled off to use two home version
knobs... :(

Rick,
There was not a Pong at the Milwaukee auction I am not sure what you are
thinking of but trust me no Pong.
