Interested to know when folk have done well on a pinball purchase - I don't mean buying a TAF when they were £900 and holding onto it.
I mean an eBay auction that noone bothered to bid on as it was listed with spelling mistakes. Or a ridiculous description that put people off. Or a dead game that genuinely just needed a fuse. Or a box of bits that was complete and actually worked when reassembled.
I must have brought around 20 games over the years and I genuinely don't think that I have ever bought a bargain. The barely or non-working sh1tters I have bought (Fathom, Genie, Funhouse) consumed masses of time and money ! and I suspect that it would have been better to buy a decent example from a financial perspective
