I have a Big Guns in good (very good?) condition. To be frank, I don't know how to rate condition but I think it is very good.

LED throughout.
All boards (System 11A) are original to this game and in very good condition (all boards marked with game number 557)
No heat marks or corrosion anywhere on the boards.
Playfield has very limited wear.
New old stock translite.
Cabinet is original and has not been restored. As such, it has dings etc but is very solid.

Despite the fact 5500 were produced, it seems to me to be quite uncommon. Similar to a split level game, it has two playfields, an upper and lower. The main feature are the cannons that fire the balls through the air into a habitrail which my family really enjoys. The key to big points is mastering the upper playfield.

Pinside and IPDB list Big Guns as a System 11B game, however, my research indicates that it was released as a System 11A game and transitioned to 11B at the end of the production run. The manual lists it as an 11A game.

I am looking for advice on how much I should ask for it and am open to offers. I can see that some people are struggling to sell system 11 games for months and months.

I would like to sell quickly if possible and am happy to lower my asking price to do so. Also, while I have $3200 into it I understand that it is a buyers market at the moment.

This game is only listed here at the moment. I will probably list on MAACA but tend to avoid Kijiji and FBMarketplace.

Thanks very much.

Just uploaded three playfield pictures.
Please note that the lower playfield picture has three yellow circles highlighting what appears to me to be the only wear spots.
I also uploaded a shot of the drop targets and you can see that the decals are in really great shape.

See these come up a lot, from 2500 to 4000. Not a super popular game. And the market is super soft right now.
The cab and head look rough can't really see the playfield enough to say anything.
Someone in Bellville just picked up a working and in decent shape F14 for $500. Mind you that I think is a super deal.

Thank you both for your replies. Also, thanks to others for their DM's. Somehow I didn't realize that I didn't post a picture of the playfield without the glass, I will post a few shortly.

If that is true, an F14 for $500 is a unicorn deal. That seller was clearly clueless and the seller stole it from them. Shameful, really.

Def a unicorn. And it did happen just a month ago. I thought it was a scam. So I didn't jump soon enough. But the guy who bought it has posted looking for someone to do a little maintenance
