Welcome to The Midway
I've created this site as a place where people in the amusement industry can buy, sell, or trade their surplus equipment. It now also includes new items from several manufacturers. Your listings can include a detailed description, multiple photos, slide shows, and videos. I will also assist with uploading your media files if necessary. I won't charge to post your items, but I will expect to receive a commission when I am responsible for the sale. You can choose to have the fee deducted from or added to your asking price. After five years of selling equipment, I am still relatively new to brokering equipment; but no one is going to work harder to sell your items. And since it costs you nothing unless I succeed, why not give me a try!
Mobile High Ropes Courses
This is an exciting new interactive attraction. Tower Productions presents their Mobile High Ropes Course. They come new with two Zip lines, two Cargo Nets, a Rock Climb, and a Repelling station. And of course they have the auto belay system for complete rider safety. Additional challenge elements can be added, and custom made units are available. The standard unit is 40 ft. long by 25 ft. wide by 35 ft. in height and takes under an hour to have ready for operation. The standard units will sell for $75000, but they do have a unit in stock right now that is available at the introductory price of $65000. The owners have a long history in the manufacture of portable rock walls, and they bring that experience to the design and manufacture of these new interactive attractions. I believe these units have literally unlimited potential. They would fit in fine on a carnival or fun fair midway. They are easy enough for the party rental industry. It could be a new business for someone looking for extra income by locating one in a shopping center, flea market, or upscale mall. They would be good for team building, so perhaps professional training organizations or vacation and summer camps could use them. And there is even hope that some of the national guard or other military groups will see their value. Feel free to call or email with any questions. Remember, you have the chance to acquire a rare if not unique attraction, one that won't have any real competition for bookings for the immediate future.

Schantz Funnel Cake Trailer
This is a like new 14 ft. Schantz trailer set up for funnel cakes for $45000. It has been recently refurbished at the factory. It has new appliances, new diamond plate, and a new marquis from Denny's Electronics. The hydraulics smoothly lower the trailer to and from the ground. You will be getting a like new unit for less than half the cost of a brand new one.
Wisdom Gravitron and Chance Zipper
Here are two very nice rides. First, there is a 1990 Wisdom Gravitron mounted on an air ride trailer for $65000. Second, there is a 1977 Chance Zipper that has been factory converted to a rim drive model for $65000. Or, you can have both of these fine rides for $115000. These prices are all firm and delivery is not included.
As for the gravitron the canopy is in excellent shape and all the lights work. The air ride trailer means less wear and tear on the ride when traveling. It has all the required safety updates. You can set it up in about three hours. 
As for the zipper about 90 percent of the lights are working right now. The owner tells me there is a slight problem with the lights on the sign which he will have fixed before the sale. It had new latches installed this spring, and the stamps on them are good for two years. It has the kit on the boom, so at least for now no ndt certification is required for it. It can be set up in about an hour and a half. Both of these are great rides for the money. The owner is selling to purchase other equipment and might entertain trades. He has mentioned wanting a hurricane. The plan is for taking a video this coming week. These rides are steady money winners and standards on many midways.
1989 Mondial Tornado
This gorgeous 1989 Mondial Tornado is available for 250000 euros firm. It is a two trailer spectacular version of the kamikaze. Its dimensions are impressive at 19 m. in length or about 65 ft. by 9 m. in width or about 30 ft. by 25 m. in height or over 85 ft. It is literally covered in lights. The owners bought it new from the factory and are the only ones to ever handle it. It is currently working in Europe. The combined weight is 50 tons. This is the only Tornado that Mondial built, and its the only ride of its kind where the arms can be operated independently of each other. You can even run just one arm if you choose. You can tell more about this unique thrill ride from the videos. You can choose the Short video Or you can watch a Longer versionThis piece would be a fine addition to any carnival or fun fair midway. It would also be a great addition to any amusement park.
*** price reduced to $65000 *** 1925 John Miller Big Dipper Coaster
This is the famous John Miller roller coaster called The Big Dipper! Built in 1925 this is a rare combination of business opportunity and historical restoration. Its one of the seven oldest coasters still in existance on earth, and in the right location it will still thrill audiences and fill pockets. this grand wooden roller coaster is complete and still standing on what used to be the Lake Geauga Amusement park. Sadly the park is gone and this is the last piece left from that magical age. This ride is a monster at 2680 feet in length. I'm told it would take about 1400 to 1500 feet of space to erect it on your site. It does have two sets of trains with four cars in each set. It has a minimum ride height of 48 inches and all of its safety features are current. This coaster would be a great attraction all by itself or as part of a tourist train business. An Ace landmark award winner this ride comes with an instant following. The owner has promised more photos of it from an aerial view which is about the only way to really see this piece. I found a good video of it on youtube from September 10th, 2007. You can click here to watch it. However, this ride is so well known that any search of youtube, iggogle, aol videos, or the like will yield plenty more videos of this ride. Now, it is a huge coaster. The owner tells me that the costs of relocating and reinstalling it are steep, so please only contact me if you are serious about starting a new business venture or in adding this one to an existing amusement park or tourist enterprise.
