FS or Trade: Late Model Shuffle Alley Puck Bowlers in Texas

Archived from groups: rec.games.pinball,dfw.forsale,rec.games.video.arcade.collecting (More info?)

With a recent string of automobile repair bills and one of my
locations no longer wanting a Shuffle Alley for lack of space I'm
listing both of my Shuffle Alley Bowlers up for sale. What I have
decided to do is offer them both for sale. However, I'm only selling
(1) of them. Whichever one doesn't sell I'll be happy to keep for our
home.

Also as mentioned in the title, I would consider trading one of them
for a pinball machine of compariable value.

If you haven't played a shuffle alley before or were on the fence
about getting one....let me tell you they are a blast! After playing
Bill Morrison's Top Dawg I was hooked and I still am...that's why I'm
only selling one! The Shuffle Alley is definitely the crowd favorite
whenever we have a party over at the house. What makes them so much
fun is that they are very competitive, even the "not really into"
pinball players like playing the shuffle alley.

--------------------------
1988 Williams Top Dawg Shuffle Alley
Running on the Williams System 11 Pinball boardset.
Up to 6 players can play at a time.
Choose from 5 different games:
Strike 90 - Strikes worth 90 points, player continues to throw if they
throw a strike, Spares worth 60 points. Blows score
downed pins. This is a 10 frame game.
Flash - Player scores higher value of flashing lights (on playfield)
for Strike. Player scores lower value of flashing lights
for Spare. Blow scores downed pins. This is a 10 frame
game.
Regulation - Scores just like regular bowling. This is a 10 frame
game.
Tic Tac II - Shoot Strike to light 3 - String "Tic Tac Toe" on
backglass of this 9 frame game. 300 point for a
strike, 100 for a spare, 500 for a string of three
in a row (vertical, horizontal or diagonal). Blow
scores downed pins.
Total Strikes - Scoring is like regulation in this 10 frame game.
However at the end of game a bonus of 300
points is awarded to each player for strikes
made during the game.

This game includes 1 can of shuffle alley wax, new puck, all keys,
coin mechs and also includes a Bill Validator on the coindoor that
accepts $1 bills and a nice copy of the owners manual. Everything is
working on this Shuffle Alley 100%. Within the last two months new
pins were installed, new stainless steel instruction cover installed
as well as new rebound rubber.

Cabinet is very nice shape.
Displays - all are working perfectly.
Playfield (shuffle lane) is in outstanding condition, no warpage, no
wear....beautiful!
Backglass - very nice condition, a few scratches, minor area in bottom
left corner touched up. No flaking, no bubbling. I'd rate it an 8.

Price $1500. This shuffle Alley is located at our house in Forney,
Texas.

Choose from 5 different games:

Regulation - Scores just like regular bowling. This is a 10 frame

Triple Strike - In this 10 frame game, each player throws three times,
with the ability to throw three strikes. It's
like playing the 10th frame, 10 times.
Strike Master - In this 10 frame game, strikes increase their value
from being worth 4,000 in the first frame to up
to 12,000 in the 10th. For a record score of
98,000 for a perfect game.

This game includes 1 can of shuffle alley wax, new puck, all keys, and
coin mechs. Everything is working on this Shuffle Alley 100%. Within
the last two months new pins were installed, new stainless steel
instruction cover installed as well as new rebound rubber and front

Cabinet is outstanding condition. Absolutely no fade!
Display - DMD display is working perfectly. No missing rows or
columns.
Playfield (shuffle lane) is in outstanding condition, no warpage, no
wear....beautiful!
Backglass/translite - Very nice condition.

Price $1800. This shuffle Alley is still currently out on location in
Grapevine, Texas at Lazy Bones Neighorhood Sports Grill & Pub but will
be pulled shortly. You are welcome to go inspect it personally, or I
can meet you out there and show you the machine inside and out.
Here are some pics of Strike Master I took a couple of months back:

As mentioned above, I'm listing both of these for sale. But only
selling one of them. Will consider trading for pinball machine in
compariable value.

You can reach me at: cwaigatolla@mindsping.com or via phone at:
214-632-5537. I'll be traveling to the Houston Arcade Expo in mid
June, can deliver to that show if interested.

The Shuffle Alley's can be taken apart into 4 pieces for easier
transportation. I can have them shipped via North American Van Lines
for around $350 to your door.

Thanks!

We'll this will bring this thread to a close.
The Strike Master has been sold.

So...since I was only selling one of them...I'm going to keep my Top
Dawg "turkey dead ahead.......turkey, turkey, turkey!!!"

Whenever you're in the Forney, Texas area come on over with a pocket
full of $1's and let me take your money on the DAWG. :-)
That's a challenge!!!!

Morrison you readin' this!
