No worries. Sold very quickly anyway - quality sells
The 3200 one ? Missing the topper for starters
This one?

Yeah, no topper, and the cabinet has been redecalled. This could hide a multitude of sins, and to be honest i prefer faded original over badly applied decals (i used to be the opposite, but not now). Playfield has some wear, but i've seen much worse. I'd say it's about £800-1200 too much.
This one was a much better deal: https://www.pinballinfo.com/community/threads/fish-tales.49999/
FWIW, I got mine off eBay, which is totally out of character for me, then I pointed the seller towards this 'ere forum. He's still here, and since spunked a good wedge of cash on even shinier games!

I hadn't looked at it like that. I'm probably in the same boat, I don't think I mind a bit of cab wear and tear. It's the playfield that matters most. To be fair most pins on ebay are overpriced
I was tempted by the FT on here recently but I won't have the room for a few months at least, house renovation is slower than I expected
my own laziness...In the mean time my pinfund continues to grow. I am dreading when I have to make a decision
Nice to hear a success story of getting someone from Ebay here, hopefully they stick around and keep pins in the community

Did speak with the fella selling Thr 3200 ft on eBay awhile back but would prefer a clean original with not much fade.
I got my FT off eBay over 10 years ago, I stripped it and took the cab to Manny who did his magic = my cash disappearing
Was worth it
FT is such a great game, yeah you will get bored of it but give it time and it’s great again.
@The seeker - Hope you find a nice one.
I've just bought the FT that came up a month ago from Sgt Grizz. I used to own one, but sold it back in 2017 when I needed to sell a few machines. It really is a fun game with a super catchy tune
You need to watch the habit of serially owning Fish Tales. Though you've a good way to go to catch up with 'Wez'.
That was my 3rd FT I just sold. One of my all time fave games but can’t keep everything and I’m sure I’ll have one again
Plenty around.Just for the record and to show pinflation …. Selling prices
2006 £525

Somebody was doing a pinsound mix for FT, crazy. It can’t be bettered.
Sounds so off to me, listen to the voice overs.

I sold my last one for £1450 in 2017
The music doesn't sound bad, but as you say - the voices are terrible. I think as a whole the original sound package for FT is really good, and doesn't need changing
