There's a Doctor WHO shop round the corner from me @Hiltoncriss , so assuming the guy who owns the shop is a collector; I could pop in there and ask the guy if he's interested if it doesn't sell on the forum?

 

[Hiltoncriss]

Hi Den,
It would look lovely in a Dr Who shop.
If you have the time, I would appreciate it.

My fruit machine ended up in the dr who display on Blackpool pleasure Beach. When it closed down god knows what happened to it

 

[Den - aka Wolfgang]

So my wife and I popped in the shop at lunch time; some pretty impressive things in there; looked like some real props from the TV show or movies (Daleks, Tardises and such; massive)
Anyway, the lady behind the counter kind of blanked me, so I spoke to a guy who was working on their inventory or something. The conversation went something like this:

Me: Hi, bit random, but have you ever considered buying a Dr.Who pinball machine? I said I come and ask for a freind.
(Lady behind the counter pipes up); depends on condition and how much
Me; mentions price and the u.k pinball community etc. (Guy says send them pics etc)
Lady; I've had a few of those; ended up selling the last one for about £700; aren't worth anything...
Me; When was that? 20 years ago?..... well, its not my machine, I'm just asking for a freind so...
Guy; writes down e-mail on a flyer (I'll pass that on to Chris, although potentially a waste of time.
Found thr lady quite rude to be honest. Shop was impressive though and was busier than we expected (my wife couldn't believe that there were so many customers in there and found the whole thing quite amusing )

Looks like you were dealing with an expert! : /

 

[Jay Walker]

Maybe the woman answers all queries like that, even 'like a cup of tea*?' "depends on condition and how much".

Isn't there a contradiction between 'depends on condition..' and 'not worth anything'? You should have offered to buy any more they're lumbered with, for £700.

* "in a cracked cup, an' all. Without milk or sugar. Or tea"

 

[MSF owner]

If shes lumbered with any more at £700, I'll give her a grand and take as many as he can get!

 

[AlanJ]

typical comic shop / collectible shop mentality. they want to pay **** all for your collectibles but yet stick it on sale at ££££££ the very next day

There was the head of an 'original Dr Who K9 prop' in that recent really overpriced auction of ancient pinball tat which we all laughed about on here - I can't find the link now that auction is over, but I remember that the description of it was that it was acquired when that Blackpool Pleasure Beach display closed down - maybe the owner stole your fruitie too!

 

[steve brum]

Fruity was bought off me, just curious what happened to it

 

[Devorian]

Love Everything Doctor Who including the pin table. The only negative thing to say about the table is those hideous looking Whomobiles!! I got a friend to 3D print actual vehicles instead of those funny shaped plastic and stickers.

 

[Pick Holder]

Very few people who go into a specailist shop are going to want to pay for a pinball machine, obviously they will want a profit and VAT on top. This is simple business sense. As they are a Dr Who shop they may sell a lot under comission.

Plus it takes up so much floor space as well. They could put a big cupboard with loads of stuff that would sell quicker.

I had a shop try and buy my dalek (see videos)

They wanted it for next to nothing as they have to make a profit - and have to give the government 20%

 

[Devorian]

@Pick Holder You actually own a full size Dalek?

I own one, let me know if you want it. So large that you can sit in it and drive it like The Flintstones car

I've seen the ones you're referring about. What are you asking for it Phil?

Chris,
you must tell me more next time I’m over.

One grand to let it go.

 

[Hiltoncriss]

Chris,

Don’t tell me that you’re a fan ))
We can play with it in the snow. But you have to drive it bare feet with no socks or shoes
