Australia's only Scorpion Ride For Sale
Well I woke up this morning and checked my email to find this http://www.amusementz.com.au/classified.asp?ID=131
It only changed hands not that long ago.
This is one of my alltime favorite rides, I love that the Matterhorn, Sizzler and Enterprise had a threesome and this was the result. Well Im off to buy a lotto ticket so maybe I can add it to my business lol.
Hopefully it will make a return to QLD as this is one kick ass ride

Very interesting, I didn't think that it would be up for sale this quick. I thought that they were making not bad money from it?

Re: Australia's only Scorpion Ride For Sale
I too was shocked, lets hope someone buys it in Aus, and we see it around the place...
No one else buy a lotto ticket so funderstruck wins the jackpot, and buys the ride!!

Re: Australia's only Scorpion Ride For Sale
Ok well I know how much he is asking now. It is alot of ride for the money and I know of alot worse rides that have sold for more. The downside is the 3.5hr set up and the 2.5hr pulldown which doesn't really suit my business of 1 day events but my life would be complete with this in the shed lol. Lotto ticket is brought common 5mill

Re: Australia's only Scorpion Ride For Sale
I did ask just out of curiousity and I know I cant afford it hence further up on this post where I said I was gonna buy a lotto ticket which I might add was a loser
Nathan I think it could be in your price range though. I'd have to come run it with you though as it is my favorite ride
