In other words - Driven by money and fantasy :(

Like all things, there will be an almighty crash. If items become investments you have to time yourself correctly or you are unable to escape.

Pinball is not a very liquid market, eventhing will find it's price.


* just not 1800 for a phantom of the opera.
 
Surely a mistake;) I thought people were trying to tell us that a DESW was worth at least £1500-£2000.

Good to see a machine at a realistic price. What next a STTNG at sub 2k?
 
Plenty of time to go on it.

Noone on here living in that area that could go and view it on your behalf?
 
This guy is selling 4 different pinball back glasses.

He's located in Blackpool but my gut tells me that as these are on a buy-it-now they're probably safe as they can't be shilled into the stratosphere. It does, however, to me, provide a salient reminder as to why you should read carefully. The listing title seems to suggest you're buying a pinball - but the price obviously makes this seem unlikely and reading further down you can see it's the back glass you're buying.
 
I can check it out if you like?

Thanks loads mate, it's very tempting - You going to be in the Norwich area over the weekend or anything? I don't want to start dragging people all over the place.

It is one of the machines I'd like, although I'm not sure how much a reasonably decent one goes for - Anyone sold/ bought one recently and got any idea?

I have seen them up for sale at 700+ one recently at 1250 but was dropped several times until a sale at much less than a grand.

Having contacted the seller of the one you are interested in just earlier tonight I would advise serious caution.
I don't think its going to be a "restored" machine at all.
Just a touched up tart IMO.

I would think 800 is all of its money but ebay is a funny place.

I am happy to go and look on your behalf over the weekend if you can get something organised. I wouldn't be shocked if the seller made excuses why a viewing isn't possible though.
I don't have a great feeling about it.
