> Yeah those table tops are ancient so the ones that still exist and are in working condition probably bring a high price.

Probably not as much as folks would guess.

In 2006 or 2007, I had an eBay purchase of maybe $ 20 or $ 30 for the Bailey Fun Four pcb from a seller in Lawndale, CA. I drove there and picked up the pcb from seller while he and I were talking. He had mentioned about purchasing about 25 to 50 pong cocktail tables that would have been destroyed had the tables not been purchased.

He was unable to find buyers for the working tables even though he did advertise to lots of places. And then glumly started parting them as spare parts for sale and was glad I had bought a pcb from him. He sort of recognized me from one of the photos of the 2003 SoCali MAME meet when Mr. Do posted photos that year since he also visited MAMEWorld and RG websites. He knew the idea was to get pcb and have proms dumped so maybe a slim chance Fun Four could be emulated.

But he also did mention the various paperwork including logic schematics had been already thrown away by previous owners of the cocktail tables and mentioned some of side instruction plates had also been removed including Bailey Fun Four instruction plate. If anything of those cocktail tables are still in existence in comply piece these days it would be a near miracle.
